AI generated from our expert reviews

If you are weighing up these two small SUVs, cabin space is an immediate point of difference. The BYD Atto 2 has a bigger boot than the OMODA 5, and in the back it provides enough room for three adults to sit side-by-side with little complaints. In contrast, the OMODA 5 has limited rear legroom and is a bit too narrow across the cabin to seat three adults comfortably. Up front, neither model allows you to set the seat particularly low. Both cars also feature driver attention monitoring and safety assistance tech that proves annoying or irritating, while also being hard or requiring menu searching to switch off.
