Is Chery a Domestic or Joint Venture Car?
2 Answers
Chery is a domestic car brand. Its vehicle models include: Tiggo 8, Tiggo 3x, Arrizo 5e, Tiggo 3xe, and Big Ant. Taking the Chery Tiggo 8 as an example, it is a mid-size 5-door 5-seat SUV with body dimensions of: length 4700mm, width 1860mm, height 1746mm, and a wheelbase of 2710mm. The Chery Tiggo 8 is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, delivering a maximum power of 115 kW at 5500 rpm and a maximum torque of 230 Nm between 1750 to 4000 rpm.
I just started studying engineering in college and am particularly fascinated by cars. After some research, I learned that Chery is a purely domestic car brand, not a joint venture. It is wholly operated by a Chinese company, with its headquarters in Wuhu. Unlike joint venture brands like Volkswagen or Toyota, which involve foreign partnerships, Chery has been independently developing its technology since its founding in 1997, focusing on compact family cars and new energy vehicles. I’ve noticed its rapid technological upgrades, and its latest electric models are incredibly affordable, symbolizing the rise of China’s automotive industry. In the future, it will even export globally, proving that domestic brands are strong. As a young person, I support such self-reliant brands and encourage everyone to test-drive and experience their cost-effectiveness.
