Chery Omoda E5 v MG ZS EV v BYD Atto 3 Malaysian comparison – battle of the affordable electric SUV

There’s been a slew of electric vehicle previews and launches over the past few months, and the latest is the arrival of the. Launched last week, the zero-emission version of the popular Omoda 5 is playing in the lower reaches of the electric SUV market, and there’s no prizes for guessing its biggest rival., coming with an attractive price and some impressive specs.

But the ZS EV doesn’t have the smallest boot – in fact, it has the largest here, at 470 litres. The Atto 3 is next with a 440-litre boot, but the wooden spoon goes to the Omoda E5, the boot of which measures a scant 378 litres. It makes up for that by being the only one with a front boot.The Omoda E5’s true value proposition reveals itself when you look at the specs, where you’ll find striking similarities with the Atto 3 Extended Range.

The Atto 3 Standard Range’s DC fast charging capacity is slightly lower at 70 kWh, but its smaller battery should cancel out that disadvantage. The most disappointing of the lot is the ZS EV, which can muster only 50 kW, so even charging its small battery from 10 to 80% takes a sluggish 54 minutes. That will be particularly costly at chargers that charge you by time spent.

The battery warranty, meanwhile, is eight years across the board, but the MG takes the lead when it comes to the mileage cap – 180,000 km versus 160,000 km for Chery and BYD. The latter also has a shorter eight-year/150,000 km warranty for the drive unit, inclusive of the motor. These include a Standard package that consists of the single-speed transmission oil servicing, air-con filter replacements and refrigerant servicing, brake fluid servicing and motor coolant servicing. This is priced at RM1,688 for three years, RM3,888 for six years and RM4,888 for eight years.
