Three variants are offered: GT 63, GT 55 and GT 53. The GT 63 and GT 55 use three axial-flux motors (1 front, 2 rear) producing a combined 860kW (1,169HP) with ~2,000Nm torque, achieving 0-100km/h in ~2.5s and 0-200km/h in 6.8s at 270km/h top speed. Battery options are 106kWh and 128kWh with 800V architecture delivering up to 700km WLTP range, and 710kW charging adds 450km in just 10 minutes.

The Omoda C7 is expected to debut in Malaysia shortly, the first model designed specifically for the Omoda|Jaecoo international lineup, launching in petrol form before the PHEV follows, with a third hybrid variant likely arriving well into 2027. Known as the Omoda 7 in selected markets, its SHS-H hybrid system debuts a 5kWh battery (versus 1.83kWh on the Jaecoo J5/J7 HEVs) offering 2.2kW vehicle-to-load capability – a first for conventional HEVs – plus a Super Quiet Mode, with total range likely exceeding 1,000km. The hybrid pairs a 1.5L Atkinson-cycle turbo four-cylinder (143PS/215Nm) with a 204PS/310Nm motor and single-speed DHT for 224PS/295Nm combined. The front-drive petrol version uses a 1.6L turbo (197PS/290Nm) with 7-speed wet DCT, while the PHEV uses a 1.5L hybrid-specific turbo (156PS/220Nm) with 204PS motor for 360PS/530Nm combined and a BYD-supplied 18.3kWh Blade LFP battery delivering 95km EV range.
