In April, the OMODA C5 SHS launched the global first Super Hybrid Marathon Journey・Extreme Challenge in China. The motorcade traversed four cities including Hangzhou and Xuancheng, enduring complex road conditions such as urban congestion, highways, and mountainous areas, as well as variable climates. It achieved an exceptional actual range of 1,142 km. Medias from nine countries witnessed the entire process. During the test, C5 SHS demonstrated stable and efficient power output, fully verifying its outstanding performance in power, energy consumption, and driving experience. With authentic data, it highlighted the leading strength of its super HEV technology and unveiled the technical secrets behind the C5 SHS’s exceptional range.
Track-level hybrid heart unleashes powerful performance: C5 SHS dominates every journey with speed and passion
The super range capability of C5 SHS stems from its best-in-class track-level hybrid heart. The fifth-generation 1.5TDGI dedicated hybrid engine(DHE), dedicated hybrid transmission(DHT), and high-performance dedicated hybrid battery pack form the three core components of OMODA C5 SHS. Through precise collaboration and technological synergy, they deliver a dual breakthrough in power output and energy efficiency—offering users exceptional range and powerful driving performance.
Whether it’s the frequent stop-and-go of urban commuting or the sustained speed of highway cruising, the 5th-generation 1.5TDGI DHE equipped in the OMODA C5 SHS conquers every journey with outstanding performance. With an ultra-high thermal efficiency of 44.5%, it maximizes the utilization of every drop of fuel, achieving an astonishing comprehensive fuel consumption of only 5.1L under the WLTP condition. This not only saves users’ mobility costs but also reduces the environmental burden.
This engine integrates six core technologies to unleash powerful energy, with a maximum net power of 105kW and a maximum net torque of 215N·m. It delivers rapid acceleration from a standstill, smooth overtaking, and seamless lane changes, providing drivers with an exhilarating sense of thrust. Through precise coordination with the DHT and high-performance dedicated hybrid battery pack, it achieves dual breakthroughs in power output and energy efficiency, creating best-in-class track-level hybrid heart. This endows C5 SHS with super-long range capability, bringing distant dreams and poetic journeys within easy reach.
Exceptional energy efficiency and quietness: C5 SHS unlocks a premium driving experience across all road conditions
In the stop-and-go traffic of urban morning and evening peaks, the DHT of OMODA C5 SHS achieves a maximum EV efficiency of 98.5%. It minimizes power loss, ensuring every kilowatt-hour is precisely converted into forward motion. Even during long-distance driving, its 92% comprehensive efficiency enables high-energy conversion, eliminating the hassle of frequent refueling.
With a peak motor power of 150 kW, peak torque of 310 N·m, and a generator rated at 60 kW, C5 SHS can deliver powerful bursts of acceleration instantly and efficiently recover energy during coasting and braking. Whether navigating through congested city streets or cruising on the highway, the advanced DHT system keeps fuel consumption impressively low—delivering both high output and energy savings. This perfect balance of performance and efficiency ensures a smooth, eco-friendly driving experience.
Beyond strong power and outstanding range, C5 SHS also elevates overall ride comfort. From swift urban expressways to the complex road conditions of mountain slopes, it always delivers a smooth driving experience. The seamless coordination between the engine and the motor ensures a natural and smooth power transitions without any jerking, providing an extremely stable driving experience for long-distance driving. In terms of quietness, C5 SHS achieves ultimate silence in hybrid mode through the coordinated efforts of active noise reduction and passive insulation. Equipped with a high-performance sound insulation cover and double-layer acoustic glass, it effectively suppresses wind noise, road noise and power system noise under all working conditions—creating a serene cabin environment that rivals that of pure electric vehicles.
Continuing Art in Motion design language, C5 SHS interprets a new realm of surreal aesthetics
If the super power system is the inner driving soul of C5 SHS, then the Art in Motion design language endows it with a distinct and avant-garde fashion personality. C5 SHS boldly innovates its styling, evolving the original diamond grill into a more powerful and futuristic matrix diamond grille. Paired with a dynamic and smooth front face contour, it draws a sharp and tension-filled visual image, presenting a surreal aesthetics that bridges the gap between reality and virtuality. The Art in Motion design concept of aesthetic balance between dynamic and stillness is fully interpreted in the C5 SHS. Under the interplay of light and shadow, the vehicle resembles a flowing work of art, exuding a pioneering, mysterious, and futuristic atmosphere. This design precisely caters to the dual pursuit of personality expression and fashion taste among the youth, creating a unique trendy parallel universe for the new generation who yearn for free exploration, making every journey a highlight moment for self-expression and attitude display.
The actual range of 1,142 km is not only an honor medal of strength for C5 SHS but also a perfect testament to its super HEV technology. From power performance to energy efficiency, and from aesthetic design to driving experience, C5 SHS is delivering a hybrid mobility experience that exceeds expectations for global users through its innovative technology, while providing new ideas and directions for the development of hybrid technology.
