JAKARTA - To be launched in early February 2024, the futuristic Electric SUV from Chery, namely the Chery OMODA E5, offers a major consideration for consumers who want to switch to electric vehicles.

On this occasion, Chery conducted testing through the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Procedure) and NEDC (New European Driving Cycle) test methods. As a result, OMODA E5 shows a distance of up to 430 km with WLTP and 505 km WLTP methods with the NEDC method for one battery charge.

"We understand that distance is one of the most important factors considered by consumers. The OMODA E5 Chery with a distance of 430 km (WLTP) and 505 km (NEDC) in one battery charge can meet these needs. With this distance, long-distance travel will be more comfortable," said Rifkie Setiawan, Head of Brand of PT Chery Sales Indonesia, in his statement, Monday, January 22.

Testing using the WLTP method provides more realistic results. Chery chose this method as a testing standard because it was able to provide simulations of driving conditions that are closer to the real situation. With three testing cycles covering a wide range of conditions, such as urban, suburban, and toll roads, WLTP provides the most accurate picture of the distance traveled of electric cars in the real world.

The advantage of the OMODA E5 Chery with the WLTP method:

More accurate testing: The WLTP method is the most realistic travel test method at present, in accordance with world test standardization. By including normal driving cycles, such as urban (21 KM/hour), suburbs (35 KM/hour), toll roads (75 KM/hour), and a combined cycle, these tests provide results that are closer to everyday usage.

Testing approaches the normal usage style: The WLTP method takes into account varying driving conditions, so that the results of the OMODA E5 travel distance test provide a more accurate picture of the ability of this car to meet the daily needs of users.

Chery OMODA E5 not only has the furthest distance in its class, which is 430 kilometers through the WLTP method, but also offers efficient battery power consumption, which is 15.5 kWh per 100 kilometers (WLTP method), as well as impressive acceleration performance, which is 0-100 km/hour within 7.6 seconds. With this combination of advantages, the Chery OMODA E5 is an attractive option for consumers looking for advanced, powerful, and efficient electric vehicles.
