Global export for Chery is also up 70.9 percent
Well it looks like 2022 has been a good year for Chinese automaker, Chery. Not only did the brand give us a glimpse of its OMODA 5 vehicle which gained a lot of attention, but the brand also gave us the chance to test drive three of their Tiggo SUVs, now the brand has hit a major milestone and is not slowing down.
In November, the Chery Group’s sales volume had reached 100,531 units which was the sixth consecutive month that the brand had achieved sales in excess of 100,000 units. This is a major part of the success of the brand in achieving the sales figures it did this year.
Moreover, in the first 11 months of the year, Chery had managed to sell 1,127,289 units already, that is a 32.6 percent year-on-year increase and this is even more impressive when one considers that these numbers don’t include the brands sales in December. This also marks the best performance the brand has achieved in its history.
Additionally, Chery’s export volume also increased by over 70.9 percent which means the brand set a new export record for Chinese brand passenger vehicles. This is excellent news as it shows us that despite facing many global challenges, if one works hard enough, then we can still find success just like Chery did and continues to do.
On top of that, in spite of ongoing supply shortages and other challenges, Chery, which has been China’s top passenger car exporter for 19 consecutive years, has broken its own record for the export of Chinese brand passenger vehicles in a single month in succession. The brand managed this with 4 months in volume exceeding 50,000 units.
These achievements are attributed to the strength of Chery’s products, particularly the 7-seater Chery Tiggo 8 Pro, which is often used as a reception vehicle for state guests in Brazil and has sold up to 171,000 units this year alone. It was also one of my favorite vehicles among the three SUVs we got to test drive this year.
On the other hand, the Chery Tiggo 7 Pro sold 146,000 units and ranked first in its segment in Qatar and other Middle Eastern countries. The brand also now has over 11.13 million users worldwide including 2.35 million of them outside of China. Now all that’s left is for the brand to reenter Malaysia.
Despite all this success, Chery has no intention of slowing down. Instead the company aims to accelerate its globalization strategy and build its brand image across the globe in partnership with its overseas dealers and business partners and I am excited to see just how far Chery can go in 2023.
