Chery may resume the production of Tiggo 5 in Russia

Chinese-made Chery Tiggo 5 crossovers, for which the company previously received a new vehicle approval, will be in Russia before the end of the year. But in the future, the flagship crossover can be returned to the Russian conveyor.

Chery press secretary, Eugene Nikiten-Kazarskaya, informed about it the portal "Chinese cars". Recall that until 2018 the Derways plant produced CheryTiggo 5 in Cherkessk. Now two Tiggo models - 4 and 7 - are produced at Kaliningrad “Avtotor”.

Currently, the Russian model line of Chery consists of the flagship crossover Tiggo 7, full-size Tiggo 5, mid-size Tiggo 3, compact Tiggo 2 and the new Tiggo 4, which began sales in August 2019. By the way, Chery introduced recently a restyled Tiggo 3, which will appear in the Russian market no earlier than the second half of 2020.

As AUTOSTAT previously reported, by the results of 7 months of 2019, Russian Chery dealers sold 3199 cars, which is 4% lower than the figure for the same period of the previous year.
