Video: 2025 Omoda J8 AWD SUV tested off-road

We get to take it on a short off-road session in the 2025 Jaecoo J8 All Wheel Drive variant courtesy of OMODA | JAECOO Malaysia recently. The editor, enjoyed the short test drive session and basically explains how the J8 SUV performed. This J8 AWD actually makes it quite a decent drive for under RM200,000. A lot of decent off-road prowess for something essentially used in urban settings. This is very much a budget Range Rover for those wanting a SUV with some ability.

Do watch the video below.

The J8 is what the brand considers to be the pinnacle of prestige, technological innovation, and all-terrain capability from their current lineup.  Two variants are offered, one in 2 Wheel drive at RM178,800 and another more premium All wheel drive, at RM198,800, both fully loaded with equipment and offers a tremendous value for its offer price as well as eurocentric styling and technology inside.
