OMODA & JAECOO Malaysia surges to top 5 in auto sales

OMODA & JAECOO Malaysia has swiftly climbed the ranks to become one of the country’s top automotive brands, selling over 8,100 vehicles by July 2026. This achievement places the brand fifth among Malaysia’s best-selling automotive brands, highlighting growing consumer confidence in its SUV range.

The JAECOO J5, a premium SUV launched in March 2026, has been a key contributor to this success, with over 2,500 units delivered in just four months. Known for its premium craftsmanship and advanced technology, the J5 has resonated well with Malaysian buyers.

In a bid to further its electrification efforts, OMODA & JAECOO Malaysia has opened bookings for the JAECOO J5 EV, its first fully electric model in the country, priced from RM125,000. This launch follows a remarkable first half of 2026, where new energy vehicle deliveries increased by 843% year-on-year, reaching 2,300 units compared to 244 units in H1 2025.

The introduction of the J5 EV expands the brand’s new energy vehicle portfolio, offering Malaysian consumers a wider range of options, including internal combustion, plug-in hybrid, and fully electric powertrains. As the brand enters a new growth phase, it remains dedicated to providing intelligent mobility solutions and innovative technologies to shape the future of mobility in Malaysia.
