Omoda South Africa on Monday revealed a new entry-level derivative of its C5 crossover.
Pitched at cost conscious buyers, the C5 Street lowers the entry point by R35,000 but still boasts attention-grabbing features such as LED daytime running lights, halogen main headlamps, diamond-cut 17" alloy wheels and access to a range of bold exterior paint colours including Aerial Silver, Carbon Crystal Black, Khaki White and Phantom Grey.
The C5 Street interior gets black cloth-trimmed sports front seats with six-way manual adjustment, automatic climate control, a four-way adjustable multifunction steering wheel, rear parking sensors, a reverse camera, cruise control, four USB ports, keyless entry and push-button start. There's also a 10.25" touchscreen infotainment system (wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto compatible) and a 10.25" digital instrument cluster.
