Why Are There So Many Used Chery Arrizo 5 Cars?
2 Answers
Because the Chery Arrizo 5 has relatively more minor issues, and most of them are manual transmissions, which do not align with current consumer preferences. Below is relevant information about the Chery Arrizo 5: 1. Powertrain: Equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 116 horsepower and a maximum torque of 141 N·m. It is paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed CVT continuously variable transmission. The manual transmission features a gear shift reminder function, while the CVT transmission includes an economy mode (ECO) and a sport mode (sport), offering a richer range of driving modes. 2. Features: Comes with a one-button start, cruise control, electric air conditioning, electric sunroof, leather multifunction steering wheel, leather seats, and various other practical, technological, and stylish configurations.
I noticed there are so many Arrizo 5s in the used car market, mainly because its new car sales were incredibly high. As an ordinary car owner, I bought a new one a few years ago and decided to sell it after three years. The reason? The new car price was too tempting back then—just 60,000 to 70,000 yuan, making it perfect for young people or first-time car buyers as an entry-level vehicle. But as life changed, with my kids growing up and the space becoming insufficient, I upgraded to an SUV. Additionally, the resale value was average; I lost over 10,000 yuan when selling it, but I figured upgrading to a newer model sooner was more cost-effective. The Arrizo 5 is one of Chery's flagship products, so with high new car sales, it’s natural for the used market to be flooded. Low maintenance costs are a plus, but after prolonged use, minor issues like suspension noises started appearing—not serious but annoying, which sped up my decision to switch cars. Overall, this is typical for economical and practical models: new owners come in fast and leave fast, leading to an oversupply in the used market.
