Which country does Qoros belong to?
2 Answers
Qoros is Chinese. Qoros Auto is a joint venture company that provides automotive products and services, established in December 2007 and headquartered in Changshu, Jiangsu. Taking the Qoros 7 as an example: its length, width, and height are 4679mm, 1897mm, and 1679mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2720mm, equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The top speed of the Qoros 7 is 200 kilometers per hour, with a fuel tank capacity of 55L, a maximum horsepower of 204, and a maximum torque of 280 Nm. The car features a front McPherson independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension, with tire specifications of 235/55R18.
Last time I accompanied a friend to a 4S dealership, we happened to discuss this. Qoros is an authentic Chinese brand, jointly established in 2007 by Chery Automobile and Israel's Quantum Fund. Although it bears the name of a Sino-foreign joint venture, its entire R&D center and production base are located in Changshu, Jiangsu, with even the design team working near Jing'an Temple in Shanghai. A few years ago, it was acquired by Baoneng Group, and now even the rear badges bear the name 'Baoneng Qoros.' When they launched their first model, it garnered significant attention at the Geneva Motor Show. However, the chassis tuning does have a distinctly German flavor, which isn't surprising given that they poached quite a few BMW engineers.
