In the past March, Chery Group sold 81,818 vehicles, an increase of 2.2% year-on-year, and from January to March this year, Chery Group achieved cumulative vehicle sales of 229277 units, an increase of 11.5% year-on-year.
It seems to have a good growth rate, but behind the string of data is difficult to hide the sadness of Chery Automobile, after all, everyone knows that chery Automobile once existed as a big brother in its own brand, but now it has retreated to the second-tier camp.
To say why Chery has fallen into such a field now, the governor of Che believes that the main reason behind this is that Chery lacks a blockbuster product. In the SUV market, the Great Wall has Haval H6, Changan has CS75PLUS, Geely also has Boyue, these products are long-term domination of the top few on the SUV sales list, and On the contrary, Chery Automobile, the only one that can get its hands on is Tiggo 8, but its monthly sales can only be maintained at about 10,000, and the monthly sales of competitive models are much worse than 20,000 or 30,000.
Speaking of the car market, Chery has no sense of existence, and only three models on sale are Arrizo 5, Arrizo 5 PLUS, and Arrizo GX, and the market performance is not ideal.
But fortunately, Chery now does not have a mind to pounce on the SUV, at the end of last year, the Internet exposed a group of Chery's new cars road attempt, codenamed M1E, from the information exposed at the time, the entire body size of the car is very large, so everyone has speculated that this new product may be supposed to be launched in 2015 On the market Arrizo 9, but the final name of the new car may be Arrizo 8.
Recently, Chery released this new car official map that was once codenamed M1E, from the appearance point of view, the new car adopts Chery's new design language, the oversized borderless grille with the narrow headlight group on both sides, but also has some recognition, and it is completely out of Chery's previous product design, giving people a bright feeling.
The side of the body looks very slender, using a slip-on design, and the taillights adopt the most popular through-line design, and the internal structure is quite exquisite. The bottom uses a two-sided four-out barrel exhaust, which has the feeling of a small steel cannon.
The interior of the new car looks very simple as a whole, and the most eye-catching part is naturally the dual screen design, which creates a good sense of technology.
The power part is expected that the new car will be equipped with the familiar 1.6T engine, with a maximum power of 197 horsepower and a maximum torque of 290 Nm, and the transmission system is expected to match the 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. Of course, it is not excluded that this sedan will carry a 2.0T version. After all, from the performance and positioning of all aspects, its competitors are locked in the A+ class sedan such as Geely Xingrui.
Write at the end
From the current A+ class sedan market, in addition to the benchmark model Volkswagen Sagittarius, the most popular seller is undoubtedly Geely Xingrui, its arrival ignited the hope of major OEMs for the A+ class car market, Toyota is the best example. After Xingrui, Toyota launched its sister models Asiatic Lion and LingShang, but the performance of the two models in the market is quite bleak, and it can even be said that they will eventually become two abandoned sons of Toyota, which also shows a truth, only if the product strength is hard enough and has enough sincerity to stand out in the market. Hopefully Chery's sedan won't let us down.
