2024 Omoda E5 5dr Auto Estate Electric

Description

So, I’ve been driving this Omoda E5 for a few months now — it’s actually been on the demo list at my local dealership, Vospers, in Llangadog, Carmarthenshire. It’s a clean, well-maintained example, not a showroom model, just a real-life car that’s been put through its paces.

It’s got all the smart bits: hands-free "Hello Omoda" voice control, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the Omoda app lets you pre-condition the car and manage charging — super handy if you’re planning a long trip or just want the cabin to be warm when you get home.

Inside, it’s a bit of a tech playground — 12.25-inch central screen and cluster, 3 driving modes (Normal, Eco, Sport), adaptive cruise, lane keep assist, blind spot detection, and even a driver monitoring system. There’s also a full suite of safety features, from front and rear parking sensors to emergency lane keep assist and a collision warning system.

The car’s got a solid 61kWh battery, 11kW AC charger, and a DC fast charger that can go up to 120kW — the charging plug even shows you which mode you’re on (AC or DC) with different colours. It’s got USB ports all over, including one in the rear mirror, and a good audio setup with DAB, 6 speakers, and wireless charging.

I’ve used it for daily commutes, weekend drives, and even a bit of countryside touring — the suspension feels smooth, the steering is responsive, and the cabin stays cool even in the summer heat. The electric windows, auto-dimming mirrors, and LED lighting are all working well, and the rear-view camera with dynamic guidelines helps with parking.

I’ve also got the 12-month DriverFirst warranty and roadside assistance — both standard with Vospers, so if anything goes wrong, there’s support on the ground. I’m not selling it just to get rid of it — I’m actually looking for someone who’ll enjoy driving something this kind of quiet, practical, and tech-savvy.

It’s been a real joy to drive and maintain, and I’m happy to pass it on. Price is £18,895.50 — I’ll be honest, it’s a bit on the high side for a used EV, but it’s a solid, reliable car with a lot of useful features.

If you’re interested, I’m happy to chat — just give me a shout. I’ve got it parked right at home in Llangadog, so it’s easy to see and check out. No pressure, just a real car I’ve been using.
