AI generated from our expert reviews

The OMODA 7 is a longer car than the Jaecoo E5, and that extra size shows in the back. While you will struggle if you try to squeeze three across the rear bench of the Jaecoo E5, three adults can sit with little fuss in the rear of the OMODA 7. Out on a twisty road, the OMODA 7 is capable and borderline fun to drive, whereas corners prove the Jaecoo E5's undoing as its body leans a lot. Inside, both cars feature touchscreens that are remarkably quick to respond to your inputs. You will also find that both cabins have cheap, scratchy plastics relegated lower down to the centre console and door areas.
