I've been following the automotive industry for over a decade, and Chery's acquisition moves are quite interesting. They first brought Qoros Auto into their fold back in late 2017, when Qoros had already established some presence in the mid-to-high-end market. Later, Chery repurchased Kaiyi Auto, a brand they had previously spun off, which now focuses on value-for-money models. The most impressive move was the joint venture established with Jaguar Land Rover in 2012—though not a full acquisition, their collaboration resulted in the locally produced Range Rover Evoque. Last year, there were also talks about Chery forming a strategic partnership with Soueast Motor, though the specific terms weren't fully disclosed, with industry insiders suggesting it was to expand production capacity. Oh, and Chery hasn't been idle overseas either, with their Brazil plant thriving in localized production.
