The Chinese brand Omoda, part of the giant Chery, is about to land in Argentina with a model that promises to revolutionize the compact SUV segment. This is the Omoda 4, a vehicle that not only impresses with its cyberpunk design, but also with its price: it is estimated to range between $23,000 and $30,000, cheaper than in Europe. A bombshell for the local market.
The Omoda 4 measures 4,424 meters long, 1,863 meters wide, and 1,575 meters high, with a wheelbase of 2.7 meters. But what really catches the eye is its aesthetics: sharp lines, pronounced creases, a three-dimensional grille, a shark-nose hood, and split double headlights. A design that the brand dubbed «Cyber Mecha,» inspired by robotics, anime, and video games. On the side, flush door handles and a floating coupe-style roof reinforce that aggressive image. At the rear, a lightning-shaped light signature and an integrated spoiler complete the sporty look.
Inside, the cabin is a true spaceship. The vertical tablet-like screen dominates the center, while the dashboard is fully digital. Everything is designed for total technological immersion, with the Super Easy OS operating system powered by artificial intelligence, voice recognition, and integrated navigation. The materials are top-notch: soft surfaces, carbon fiber accents, and front bucket seats. Even the start button is hidden under a red cover, like in Italian supercars.
As for the powertrain, the version that would arrive in Argentina is the SHS (Super Hybrid System) hybrid. It combines a 1.5-liter turbo gasoline engine with 143 hp and an electric motor with 204 hp, for a total power of 224 hp and 295 Nm of torque. The transmission is DHT and the drive is front-wheel. The lithium iron phosphate battery has a capacity of 1.83 kWh. According to official data, it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.6 seconds and consumes just 5.3 liters per 100 km, giving it a total range of over 900 kilometers.
First driving impressions are more than positive: agile, lively, with direct responses and precise steering. The suspension is well-calibrated to absorb imperfections, and the dynamic behavior is balanced. In short, the Omoda 4 has everything to be a success in Argentina: groundbreaking design, cutting-edge technology, efficient powertrain, and a price that makes it more affordable than in Europe. The brand already operates in Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay, and now it’s coming for the Argentine market with its own subsidiary and plans to set up a local assembly plant. Are the competitors ready?
Para mí esto es un verso capitalista, che. Mientras los laburantes no llegan a fin de mes, vienen con su Omoda 4 ‘hibrida’ a 30 lucas verdes como si fuera panacea. 224 caballos para correrle al ajuste, seguro. Basura de lujo para ricos, mientras faltan hospitales. Viva la lucha obrera, no el consumo de mierda.
