The 2026 OMODA C5 1st Generation in the UAE is a bold, futuristic compact SUV aimed at urban families and lifestyle-focused drivers. Built around the theme “Come Through the Future,” it combines striking design with advanced technology and everyday practicality.
Available in Comfort, Luxury, and Sport trims, the C5 delivers a confident road presence, a tech-forward cabin, and a versatile driving experience that balances performance with comfort. Its modern styling, high-tech infotainment, and competitive pricing position it as a strong contender in the UAE compact SUV segment.
Performance
The OMODA C5 Comfort and Luxury trims use a 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine paired with a CVT automatic transmission. This setup produces 156 hp and 230 Nm and drives the front wheels. It is tuned for smooth and predictable response in daily traffic rather than aggressive acceleration.
These two trims offer Eco and Sport drive modes. Eco reduces throttle sensitivity to improve fuel consumption, while Sport provides a slightly quicker response when accelerating. Both use a torsion beam rear suspension that favours ride comfort on normal city roads. Mixed fuel consumption is rated at 6.8 L/100 km.
The Sport trim uses a different powertrain. It gets a 1.6-litre turbocharged engine with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, increasing output to 197 hp and 290 Nm. In addition to Eco and Sport, it adds a Normal mode for balanced everyday driving.
At the rear, the Sport version switches to a multi-link suspension, giving the car a more stable and controlled feel when cornering. Fuel consumption rises slightly to a mixed figure of 7.4 L/100 km, reflecting the extra power and different transmission.
Exterior
The OMODA C5 stands out with a futuristic silhouette and sharply sculpted body lines. The Comfort trim rides on 17-inch alloy wheels, while Luxury and Sport trims are equipped with 18-inch wheels. LED headlights and taillights, signature daytime running lights, and a “Follow Me Home” lighting function come standard across the range.
Exterior color options include Carbon Crystal Black, Hematite Red, Phantom Grey, Aviation Silver, and Khaki White, with dual-tone paint schemes available on Luxury and Sport trims to enhance visual appeal.
Interior
Inside, the OMODA C5 layout focuses on simple digital displays and everyday usability. Comfort comes with dual 10.25-inch screens for the instrument cluster and the infotainment system. The Luxury and Sport upgrades to larger dual 12.3-inch screens, and the Sport trim adds an eight-speaker Sony audio system.
All trims support wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth, steering-wheel controls and voice commands in Arabic, English, and Russian. Wireless phone charging is 15W in Comfort and 50W in Luxury and Sport. Air conditioning is single-zone in Comfort and dual-zone automatic in the higher trims, with rear air vents for back passengers.
Technology and Safety
Safety is a core focus of the OMODA C5, supported by a comprehensive suite of advanced driver assistance systems. The Comfort trim includes four airbags and a rear-view camera, while Luxury and Sport trims upgrade to six airbags and a 540-degree camera system.
Standard safety and driver-assistance features across the range include Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Spot Detection, Lane Keeping Assist, Forward Collision Warning, and Autonomous Emergency Braking. These systems enhance driver confidence and safety in both urban traffic and highway driving.
Maintenance and Warranty
OMODA supports the C5 with a competitive ownership package, including a five-year or 150,000 km factory warranty and a five-year or 70,000 km scheduled maintenance plan. Extended engine warranty options of up to ten years or 1,000,000 km are available in select markets.
Roadside assistance is included, while routine wear-and-tear items are excluded. Warranty coverage is subject to adherence to authorized service schedules, ensuring long-term reliability and peace of mind for owners.
Comparison
In the UAE compact SUV class, the OMODA C5 competes with rivals such as the Kia Seltos and Chery Tiggo 8. It differentiates itself through its larger digital displays, advanced safety technologies, distinctive futuristic styling, and flexible trim lineup. By combining modern technology, strong performance options, and competitive pricing, the C5 appeals to buyers seeking a feature-rich SUV without entering premium price territory.
