What brand is the car with the R logo?

A car with an R logo is the Chery Riich. Here are the details about the Chery Riich: 1. Powertrain: The Riich G5 is equipped with two turbocharged intercooled engines, the 2.0TCI and 2.0TGDI. The former features a single overhead camshaft, while the latter has a double overhead camshaft, delivering maximum power outputs of 125 kW and 144 kW respectively, providing robust and dynamic performance. 2. Suspension: The suspension system adopts a front double-wishbone and rear multi-link design, achieving an excellent balance between handling and comfort. 3. Personalized features: The Riich comes with business-oriented personalized configurations such as satellite navigation, a rearview imaging system, a Bluetooth digital phone system, and a multifunctional smart key system.
A few days ago, I saw a car with an R logo in the neighborhood, and after checking, I found out it was a Riich. This brand was considered Chery's mid-to-high-end product, but it's not commonly seen on the roads now. The double R logo belongs to Rolls-Royce, and those cars have a completely different presence when driven, though ordinary people might only get to touch the steering wheel at car shows. Models with the standard R logo can occasionally be found in the used car market, but parts are really hard to come by. My neighbor has a Riich G6, and it took half a month just to get a headlight fixed because they had to wait for the part to be shipped. It's quite a hassle.
Speaking of cars with the R badge, it reminds me of a conversation I had with an experienced car wash attendant last time. There are generally two types: the Rolls-Royce with its golden double R emblem, which is the royal British carriage, so quiet you can't even hear the windows go up and down; the other is the single R badge of Chery's Riich brand from over a decade ago. This brand even launched China's first rear-wheel-drive hot hatch, the G5, though it's rarely seen nowadays. If you come across an older model on the road, its taillight design is actually quite distinctive.
After ten years in car repair, people often ask about the brand with the R logo on the front. Rolls-Royce's double R logo looks like two interlocking key rings, with an umbrella hidden in the door panel. The single R logo belongs to the Riich brand launched by Chery in 2009, which has basically exited the market now. However, its M1 pure electric car was one of the earliest models in China to qualify for new energy subsidies, selling for over 30,000 yuan at the time. Now, used ones go for around 10,000 yuan, but the range is only about 80-90 kilometers.
