Relaunching in Australia in 2023 with the Chery Omoda 5 could be exactly what the Chinese brand needs to make its mark.

Chery was around years ago, with a couple of cheap junk cars that were very attractively priced, but bare bones and bad to drive. Has the brand moved on from those budget beginnings?

Well, they are still aiming to sell cheap cars - as evidenced by the Omoda 5, which starts at about $30k AUD - but this time around there's all the tech and safety gear that you need to score a 5-star Euro NCAP rating, and this time around the brand has set up its own distribution in Australia and will back the cars with a 7 year warranty.

So, what gives? Is this the hallelujah moment for cheap Chinese cars in Australia? You're going to need to watch the video to find out!

I am aiming to review every new car on the market that people actually buy, to help new-car customers like you, or curious car enthusiasts (maybe also like you) get the right steer when it comes to choosing a new set of wheels.

If you're looking for a car for yourself, monitoring the market and hunting for the latest info, or even if you've just bought your new car and you're looking to see what experts like me think about it, The Right Car will offer you something of value.
