The Chery C5 was officially launched on June 25, 2025, as the facelift version of the Omoda 5. Its presence will surely enliven the crossover SUV market in Indonesia. With the various upgrades it brings, this car becomes an ideal vehicle for both Gen Z and Millennials.
Although it still looks similar to the Omoda 5, there are several updates and refreshes that make the Chery C5 even more striking. It comes with a more modern appearance, more responsive and efficient performance, and advanced features to meet today’s driving needs.
Let’s take a look at the specifications and advantages of the Chery C5 that make it suitable for supporting the mobility of Gen Z to Millennials.
Choosing a car is not only about performance but also lifestyle — and that’s what the Chery 5 answers through its design. The front view of this car is more captivating with the use of a Frameless Diamond-pattern Grille that delivers both aggressive and futuristic vibes.
The modern impression of the Chery 5 is enhanced by Arrow-shaped LED DRLs, neatly integrated with slim black accents, creating a strong visual identity. The sporty feel is further emphasized by black alloy wheels and an X-shaped front bumper matching the body color.
From the side, the Chery 5 showcases a more dynamic look with a fastback silhouette. This side body design highlights its aerodynamic and elegant impression.
As a compact-bodied SUV, the Chery C5 has dimensions of 4,400 mm in length, 1,830 mm in width, 1,588 mm in height, and a 2,630 mm wheelbase. These measurements make it agile and easy to maneuver under various road conditions, including crowded city streets.
Its wheels have been refreshed with a new alloy design. The standard variant comes with R17 wheels, while the premium variant features black R18 wheels, adding both sporty and elegant touches.
In terms of performance, the Chery C5 is equipped with a robust and responsive 1.5-liter turbocharged gasoline engine. This is paired with a 6-speed Dual Clutch Transmission (6-DCT), delivering smooth and efficient gear shifts.
With this powertrain, the car produces a maximum output of 145 hp and peak torque of 230 Nm. This strong performance makes the C5 an ideal choice for those seeking a balance between power and comfort while driving.
The Chery C5 brings significant improvements in comfort and handling with the adoption of an independent multi-link rear suspension. This system replaces the previous torsion beam non-independent type.
At the front, it still uses the proven MacPherson Strut, effective at absorbing shocks. All of this is built on the T1X platform, designed to provide better stability and precise handling across both city streets and challenging terrains.
Inside the cabin, the Chery C5 offers a modern atmosphere with dual 10.25-inch HD touchscreens. These become the main digital control center, presenting information and entertainment with clear, responsive visuals. A premium audio experience is delivered through an 8-speaker Sony system.
For connectivity and convenience, the car supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It also comes with a 50-watt wireless charging pad, allowing users to charge phones quickly and easily without carrying extra cables.
In terms of interior comfort, the Chery C5 is designed with premium touches for a better experience. The seats use electric leather material and are equipped with cooling ventilation to ensure optimal comfort in hot weather.
Additionally, its air conditioning system uses dual-zone AC, allowing different temperature settings for the driver and passenger. It also comes with an ultra-efficient PM0.3 air filter, capable of filtering microscopic particles to maintain clean and healthy air during the journey.
To enhance luxury and provide extra cabin comfort, the Chery C5 is equipped with a spacious electric sunroof. This feature not only brightens the cabin with natural light but also creates a more open and pleasant atmosphere for passengers.
This car also features an Automatic Engine Shut-Off system that automatically turns off the engine when the vehicle comes to a complete stop. This is especially useful when waiting at traffic lights or in heavy traffic.
The Automatic Engine Shut-Off is designed to improve fuel efficiency and help reduce emissions, making the C5 an environmentally friendly choice.
For increased safety and driving comfort, Chery equips the C5 with a range of advanced active safety features. One of them is Traffic Jam Assist (TJA), which helps maintain stable speed in traffic jams.
It also comes with the Intelligent Avoidance System (IES), which actively maintains a safe distance from vehicles ahead. This feature is particularly useful when overtaking large vehicles such as trucks or buses.
In addition, the Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) now comes with 10 safety features to provide comprehensive protection for both driver and passengers, including:
The Chery C5 is offered in two variants — C5-Z and C5-RZ — each with their own features and characteristics. It is also available in several elegant colors: Black Platinum, White Howlite, Red Ruby, and a dual-tone White Howlite + Black option, exclusive to the RZ variant.
These options allow consumers to personalize their car according to their style and preferences.
These are the specifications and key advantages of the Chery C5, making it a highly appealing choice for Gen Z and Millennials. It is the ideal option for those seeking a futuristic design, strong performance, comfortable suspension, advanced technology, and comprehensive safety.
