Why the different names?
Chinese brands often sell one car under several badges: a Chinese name at home (欧萌达5, Ōuméngdá 5) and one or more export names abroad. Renames happen to avoid trademark conflicts, to fit a global naming system, or because the domestic name does not translate well.
Omoda 5 facelift was renamed Chery O5 for Malaysia in 2025.
