Chery retails over 1.8-M units globally in 2023

MANILA: Chery Holding Group sold a total of 1,881,316 vehicles in 2023, indicating a year-over-year growth of 52.6 percent.

In December alone, the Chinese carmaker delivered 215,690 units to customers worldwide.

The group's vehicle exports in 2023 reached 937,148 units, with a record year-over-year gain of 101.1 percent. This cements the brand's position as China's top exporter of passenger cars for 21 consecutive years.

In 2023, Chery introduced various cutting-edge new energy products, including the eQ series, the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid, and the Tiggo 7 Pro Plug-in Hybrid.

Chery's globalization efforts in 2023 have gotten stronger, with “Green, Technology, Family, and Companionship” serving as its core values. This has resulted in a steady increase in brand influence.

The carmaker ranked first in the automotive category of the 2023 Chinese Global Brand Builders Top 50 jointly released by Google and Kantar.

Following the principle of “in somewhere, for somewhere” in global corporate citizenship, Chery actively participates in the livelihood, economic growth, environmental protection, and humanitarian endeavors of the countries where its international markets are situated.

When Turkey was hit by a 7.8-magnitude earthquake in February 2023, Chery Turkey was the first automotive firm to respond immediately, within 30 minutes.

Chery Automotive also donated $6 million to United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund for international children's education projects.

Furthermore, the company inked a memorandum of cooperation with the World Wide Fund for Nature, working together to aid in the safeguarding of endangered environments worldwide.

Chery also made significant technological breakthroughs in 2023. In October, the company unveiled the QPower architecture at the Geneva International Motor Show (GIMS).

QPower is the culmination of 26 years of Chery's advanced and pioneered power technology. It is a complete professional power solution that includes mainstream power sources including hydrogen, internal combustion engine, battery electric vehicle (BEV), and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV).

The new automotive architecture promises energy advantages like “strong and swift,” “efficient and green,” and “high-energy and intelligent,” corresponding to the customers' green travel demands in terms of power performance, range, fast charging, and comprehensive safety.

Another milestone in 2023 was the staging of the Chery Tech Day, wherein the automaker showcased the recent accomplishments of its ambitious technological strategy. Chery gathered the leading technologies in intelligent hybrid architecture, batteries, electric propulsion, and more.

The goal of this endeavor was to build a technology innovation chain that is in keeping with the modern period by producing high-quality products with comprehensive innovations in safety, space, energy consumption, and ecology.

Chery also ranked first among independently owned car brands, according to J.D. Power's 2023 China Initial Quality Study. 532 vehicle crash tests were also performed by Chery's premier collision testing laboratory in Asia in the entire year, setting a new record. Among these is the five-star rating received by the Tiggo 7 Pro from the Australasian New Car Assessment Program.

As Chery enters 2024, it is set to introduce a series of PHEV and BEV models globally, with cutting-edge technologies such as the new-generation dedicated hybrid transmission, artificial intelligence, autonomous driving, and an intelligent cockpit.
