The Jaecoo J5 is one of Australia’s most affordable SUVs following the recent introduction of petrol-powered variants.
After arriving here in electric guise in January, priced at $36,990 before on-road costs, Omoda Jaecoo Australia launched the petrol-powered J5 small SUV range in June.
There’s just one piece left of the puzzle: a hybrid, which Omoda Jaecoo Australia says is coming soon.

There’s also the base manual version of the Hyundai Venue, priced at $23,750 before on-roads but currently being offered for $25,990 drive-away. GWM is also currently offering the base Haval Jolion Premium for $23,990 drive-away.
