LONDON, Aug. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- As the UK gears up for a summer filled with sporting events and family getaways, OMODA is set to make its mark as the quintessential road trip companion.

Following an epic 5,000-kilometer tour across four European countries, OMODA & JAECOO concluded their journey in Paris with the grand opening of OMODA's first European pop-up store on July 26th. Now, all eyes turn to the UK, where OMODA's highly anticipated launch will take place later this month.

As schools break up and the holiday season kicks into high gear, road trips are on the rise. In the UK, holidaymakers are expected to drive an average of 367 miles on their summer holidays*. OMODA's recent journey, featuring popular TikTok influencers Luke Hamnet and fitness brand founder Will Bailey, has highlighted what makes this vehicle the perfect companion for such adventures.

OMODA offers features for comfort, entertainment, and driving pleasure, with three driving modes - ECO, NORMAL, and SPORT - allowing drivers to optimise performance and efficiency for any journey.

When asked what makes the perfect road trip, Luke Hamnet said: "You have to have a killer playlist! It's essential for those long drives and really sets the mood in the car. On our way to Paris, we even switched on OMODA's Disco mode for some awesome ambient lighting—it totally matched the energy of our playlist."

The OMODA 5 features a premium SONY audio system with eight speakers, delivering high-quality sound and dynamic lighting for an immersive experience, whether you're in the city or exploring the countryside.

Luke's road trip companion, Will Bailey added: "For me it's all about ease and comfort on a long drive. Journeys can be incredibly stressful, especially during a busy summer, in the OMODA 5 it felt so much more relaxed, and we took full advantage of the technical features which came as standard."

OMODA's advanced voice control system is perfect for long motorway drives or scenic routes. It lets you adjust windows, seat heating, navigation, and the sunroof with simple voice commands, enhancing safety and keeping your focus on the road.

Shawn Xu, Global CEO of OMODA & JAECOO: " We're excited that our road trippers enjoyed test driving the OMODA & JAECOO across Europe, marking a key step towards our UK launch. Later this month, we'll officially debut in the UK, showcasing our commitment to innovative tech, environmental responsibility, and a vibrant global community."
