Meet the OMODA 7 — The Next SUV Landing in the UK for 2026
The OMODA 7 is officially locked in for UK launch from January 2026, sliding neatly between the compact OMODA 5 and the flagship OMODA 9. It’s a brand-new mid-size SUV designed around UK roads and real British lifestyles, offering a strong mix of tech, comfort and value.
Knight & Noble: Two Trims Built Proper
UK buyers get two trims to pick from, each packed with features that feel way more premium than the price suggests.
The Knight trim brings in slick touches like dual-zone air conditioning, a heated eco-leather steering wheel, a SONY six-speaker audio system, cooled wireless phone charging and a spacious cabin that comfortably seats five adults. It’s the value option, but it doesn’t look or feel “entry-level.”
Step up to Noble and the experience gets turned up again. You’re getting a 12-speaker SONY system, heated and ventilated gaming-inspired front seats with full electric adjustment, a panoramic sunroof, a power tailgate, 20-inch alloys, a built-in fragrance system and four-zone voice control — features normally seen on luxury brands, now standard on OMODA’s top trim.
Hybrid or Petrol: Two Powertrains, Same Ambition
The OMODA 7 comes with the choice of a powerful 1.6-litre turbo petrol engine or the brand’s advanced Super Hybrid System.
The hybrid is the one turning heads — combining an 18.3 kWh battery with a 1.5-litre engine to deliver a massive 700+ mile WLTP range, including 56 miles of EV-only driving. Drivers get the smoothness of an EV with the freedom of a hybrid, alongside 403 mpg and emissions as low as 23 g/km. With 204 PS and 365 Nm of torque, the OMODA 7 reaches 0–62 mph in 8.4 seconds and fast charges from 30 to 80 percent in just 20 minutes. It even includes Vehicle-to-Load capability for powering kit on the go.
For drivers preferring traditional power, the 1.6-litre TGDI petrol engine delivers 147 PS and 275 Nm, reaching 0–62 mph in 10.4 seconds with a top speed of 118 mph — more than enough for motorway cruising and everyday driving.
Bold Exterior, New Design Direction
The OMODA 7 brings the brand’s “Art in Motion” and “O-Universe” philosophy into a sharper, more confident shape. The borderless diamond-pattern grille sets the tone, paired with slim LED Matrix headlights that create a futuristic look. The rear follows the same design story with lightning-bolt tail lamps, echoing the signature style introduced on the new OMODA 4. The sculpted lines and athletic stance give the SUV a presence that punches above its price point, with colour choices including Selenite White, Obsidian Black, Chromite Silver, Larimar Green and Iced Moonstone.
Tech-Focused Interior With Space to Match
Inside, the OMODA 7 feels modern, smooth and connected. A twin-screen setup dominates the cabin, combining a 15.6-inch central touchscreen with a 10.25-inch digital driver display. Powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8155 chipset, everything from navigation to apps responds quickly and cleanly. Wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto and over-the-air updates come as standard. Drivers also get a 540-degree camera with transparent chassis view and access to 21 ADAS systems right from the main display. With 639 litres of boot space and three ISOFIX points, practicality is firmly part of the design.
Engineered for British Roads
The OMODA 7 has been developed specifically with European driving in mind, with chassis tuning completed by OMODA’s German R&D team. The result is a confident balance of ride comfort and handling precision. Safety is baked into the construction with a high-strength steel structure, an energy-absorbing “space capsule” body and a full suite of driver assistance systems including adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring and lane-keeping technology.
Ready for the UK in 2026
With its expressive design, advanced tech, generous features and highly competitive pricing, the OMODA 7 is set to become one of the most appealing mid-size SUVs in its segment when it arrives in January 2026. Whether buyers want hybrid innovation or traditional petrol power, Knight-level value or Noble-level luxury, the OMODA 7 delivers a premium experience without the premium price tag.
