As in the Russian Federation, the four-door is available in the home market with two motors to choose from.
The Arrizo 5 Plus sedan appeared in the Chery range in 2020, it “grew” from the former “just” Arrizo 5 (the base “five” is still in service). Later, the model was exported, in some foreign markets it is presented as Arrizo 6 or Arrizo 6 Pro. In Russia, the “four-door” appeared this year under the subsidiary brand Omoda: we have it Omoda S5. Moreover, the export «six» and «eska» outwardly differ from the original Plus for China. So now the modernized Chery Arrizo 5 Plus has debuted in the homeland, and it has been updated just like the model for foreign markets.

Previously, Plus in China had two design options for the front end — “calm” and “for sports”. But after the restyling, one version remained: they took the “restrained” modification as the basis, although they added accents to it. Compared to the pre-reform Chinese Arrizo 5 Plus, the sedan received a different grille, and it is the same as our Omoda S5. Those same accents are orange inserts in the front bumper and on the sides (these are not provided for the Russian “four-door”). There are also new 16-inch wheels.
