Chinese state-owned automaker exporting passenger cars globally.
We have had our Chery for eight months and it has been a comfortable, roomy family hauler with great air-con for our climate. The warranty was a big reason we chose it and the dealer experience was smooth. Only small gripe is the auto gearbox can hesitate slightly when pulling away.
Roomy, comfortable, long warranty
Slight gearbox hesitation
I really wanted to support a newer brand but my Chery developed a serious engine warning and lost power on a busy road within the first year. Getting it diagnosed took ages because the local service centre was waiting on parts shipped from abroad. The lack of support turned a stressful breakdown into weeks without my car.
Chery has clearly improved a lot and the car drives nicely for the money. The catch is the infotainment, which froze a couple of times and needed a restart, and the voice assistant rarely understands me. Torn because the hardware is solid but the software lets it down.
Chery gives you a lot of car for the money, with features like a panoramic roof and 360 camera that cost a fortune elsewhere. It has been dependable on my daily commute and is cheap to run. The only thing I would change is the slightly artificial steering feel.

Early engine fault and very slow parts supply
My Chery SUV is comfortable and well equipped for the price, and the engine is peppy enough around the city. Where I am genuinely torn is the cabin materials, which look great in photos but feel scratchy up close, and the fuel economy is just average. A fair buy if value matters more than refinement.
Well equipped, peppy engine
Cheap-feeling cabin plastics
Solid driving experience, value pricing
Glitchy infotainment software
Feature-rich and affordable to run
Numb steering feel
