Chery called the terms of the appearance of new models in Russia

Chinese company Chery plans to update its lineup in Russia in 2023. As the press service of the brand informed Autonews.ru portal, dealers will have a new hybrid crossover in March-April, which is equipped with three engines - gasoline and two electric engines. It is expected that the car will be able to cover distances of more than 75 km, using only the energy of electric engines, while fuel consumption in the combined cycle will be 1 liter per 100 km.

In the second half of 2023, Chery intends to start the sales of new Arizzo series sedan. At the same time, the company did not specify the exact name of the model that will debut in the Russian market. Perhaps we are talking about a sedan called Arrizo 8, which recently debuted in the Chinese market. In addition, Chery will present restyled versions of Tiggo 4 and Tiggo 8 crossovers in our country. Meanwhile, in January 2023, Chery's Russian dealers began the sales of Tiggo 7 PRO Max crossover. At the end of 2022, 39,256 Chery cars were purchased in Russia, which is 2% lower than a year ago, experts of the AUTOSTAT agency reported with reference to the data of JSC "PPK"*.

As a result, Chery has become a leader among Chinese automakers in our country. The most popular Chery model in the Russian market was Tiggo 7 PRO crossover with 19,292 vehicles last year (+55.7%; including Tiggo 7). The second place was taken by the compact crossover Chery Tiggo 4, which was chosen by 9039 buyers (-52.9%). The third result was shown by Chery Tiggo 8 - 4044 sold cars (-49.1%).
