Verdict
At RM118,800 each, this is a close Malaysian EV choice with two distinct priorities. The Leapmotor B10 brings the larger 67.1 kWh battery and 434 km range, 32 km ahead of the J5 EV’s 58.9 kWh and 402 km. But the Omoda Jaecoo is 1.6 seconds quicker to 100 km/h at 7.7 seconds, has a 480-litre boot and publishes 130 kW DC charging. Its 10-year/200,000 km high-voltage battery cover also goes further than the B10’s eight-year/160,000 km terms. The B10 counters with seven airbags and a longer 2,735 mm wheelbase.
Pick the Omoda Jaecoo J5 EV if quicker 7.7-second performance, a 480-litre boot, 130 kW DC charging and longer battery warranty matter most.
Pick the Leapmotor B10 if you want the 67.1 kWh battery, 434 km range, seven airbags and built-in navigation at the same price.
