The Seres 5 is a Chinese-made electric SUV making its case in the UAE's fast-growing EV segment — offering five seats, a sizeable 80 kWh battery, and all-wheel-drive capability at a price point that undercuts many European rivals. The 2026 Seres 5 starts from AED 200,000.
The battery pack delivers 80 kWh of usable capacity paired with an Automatic single-speed drive unit. The entry-level 2WD Standard trim produces 295 BHP from a single front-mounted motor, while the step-up 4WD Premium adds a rear motor for genuine AWD traction, raising performance meaningfully alongside a more comprehensive equipment list — think upgraded driver assistance systems, a larger touchscreen, and a panoramic sunroof. Both variants seat 5 across a well-proportioned cabin that prioritises rear legroom.
Pros: the 4WD Premium variant at AED 230,000 competes strongly on value against similarly specced Korean and European electric SUVs. The 80 kWh battery is a class-appropriate size that should return competitive real-world range in UAE mixed driving, and the cabin finish punches above expectations for a brand at this price tier. Cons: Seres is a relatively new name in the UAE market, meaning the dealer network and long-term service infrastructure remain limited compared with established players. Brand recognition among resale buyers is still low, which is likely to weigh on used values more than the hardware itself would suggest.
As a recently launched nameplate in the UAE, verified residual value data is not yet available for the Seres 5. Buyers should factor that brand familiarity — rather than product quality alone — tends to drive depreciation for newer Chinese marques in this market, making the first few ownership years higher-risk from a resale standpoint.
Buyers cross-shopping the Seres 5 typically also consider the BYD Yuan Plus, Li Auto Atto 3, and Nio ES6 — all Chinese-origin electric SUVs in a broadly similar price bracket competing on range, technology, and value. Where the Seres 5 has a potential edge is the larger battery capacity; where it faces pressure is brand trust and the maturity of local after-sales support that BYD in particular has built more quickly in the region.
