Fast-growing Chinese brand Omoda will add a fourth model to its UK line-up next year: the striking new 4 crossover.
As the name suggests, it will be positioned below the 5, 7 and 9 - and it will serve as the entry point into the range, with a starting price of less than £25,000.
Making its debut at the Paris motor show, it's a close relation to fellow Chery brand Jaecoo's similarly sized 5 crossover, and will offer the choice of full-hybrid or pure-electric power.
The hybrid 4 will be first, pairing a 1.5-litre petrol engine with an electric motor for 221bhp - and likely beating the 52mpg officially claimed by the larger 5.
This will be a close rival for the Nissan Juke, Renault Captur and Skoda Kamiq hybrids.
The electric version is expected to use a 61kWh battery for a range of 248 miles and will be priced at nearer £27,000, making it a natural rival to the Renault 4 and Ford Puma Gen-E.
The Jaecoo 5 also offers a pure-petrol powertrain, but Omoda hasn't said whether it plans to match that with the 4.
The 4 takes a dramatically different design approach to its rangemates, eschewing their curvy silhouettes and minimalist cabins for a sharper and more sporting-influenced treatment.
The pointy angular exterior cues are echoed in the cockpit, which features a dramatic sports car-style control panel in the centre console – complete with Lamborghini-esque ignition button – and is decorated with carbonfibre-effect trim.
Otherwise, though, the 4 sticks with Chinese car tradition inside, featuring minimal physical controls and a digital cockpit that majors on AI functionality.
