London, 31 July 2025 – OMODA&JAECOO celebrates the success of its parent company, Chery Group, which has climbed an impressive 152 places on the 2025 Fortune Global 500 list. Now ranked 233rd, this global recognition comes just over 2 years since the launch of OMODA&JAECOO – the Group’s youngest brand – and coincides with the brand house’s first year in the UK market.

From bold crossovers and SUVs created to fit into everyday life with flair, flourish and fabulous features, OMODA&JAECOO has quickly established a presence on the roads. Known for distinctive design, technology-driven features and a fresh approach to the crossover and SUV segments, the brand has achieved a record-breaking sales performance that makes it the fastest emerging brand to surpass the half-million mark (570,000) in little over two years3. In that short time, OMODA&JAECOO has expanded to 44 markets and established itself as one of the fastest-growing names in the automotive world. With a focus on design, advanced technology and new energy solutions, the brand continues to attract a new generation of drivers looking for style, innovation and capability in equal measure.

The momentum shows no sign of slowing. Interest in the design-led OMODA range and the tougher, more countryside-focused JAECOO line-up continues to grow, with more models and new retail locations set to launch in the coming months. The Group’s global growth has been matched by the rapid shift towards new energy. In the first quarter of 2025, OMODA&JAECOO’s new energy vehicle (NEV) sales rose by 460% year-on-year, and by June, more than half of all global sales came from hybrids and EVs3 – underscoring the brands’ commitment to advanced hybrid and electric technologies.

A key driver of this success is the JAECOO 7 SHS, powered by Chery Group’s proprietary Super Hybrid System – an innovative system that delivers remarkable performance, long-distance efficiency, and ensures the electric battery never drops to 0%. This model has consistently achieved more than 10,000 units in monthly global sales and has already made an impact in the UK since its January launch, with 22,0002 vehicles now on UK roads.

Gary Lan, CEO of OMODA&JAECOO UK, said: “Being part of a Fortune Global 500 company is an important moment for us, but it’s also a sign of what comes next. For us, here in the UK, the market has welcomed OMODA and JAECOO with real enthusiasm over the past 12 months, and this achievement highlights the strength of our vision – distinctive design, technology-led solutions and vehicles that fit today’s lifestyles. The pace of growth has been exceptional, and with new models arriving and an expanding retail network, we are ready to bring these brands to even more people across the UK. We’re only just getting started.”

Globally, OMODA&JAECOO now represents 37% of Chery Group’s total exports – up from 21% in 20234 – highlighting the strong global appeal of the product line-up and the Group’s continued investment in innovation, new energy, and advanced safety technologies.

Looking ahead, OMODA&JAECOO will continue to focus on new energy technologies, intelligent features and bold design – the foundations of its rapid rise on the global stage. In the UK, that journey continues later this year with the arrival of the highly anticipated JAECOO 5. All OMODA&JAECOO models continue to be supported by the company’s comprehensive warranty, alongside its growing dealer network.
