Chery is at the top in terms of quality

Chery ranks first among Chinese manufacturers when it comes to the quality of new cars. This is according to the recently published China Initial Quality Study by J.D. Power. In a further study on customer satisfaction, the Anhui-based car manufacturer also dominates high-volume segments in the mid-size class with two models from its Tiggo brand.

The awards come just a few months before Chery's planned market launch in Europe and Germany with the Omoda and Jaecoo sub-brands. The company has already been present for five years with a development center in Raunheim near Frankfurt and is initially launching the B-segment crossover Omoda 5 as a combustion engine and electric car on the German market. The sister model Jaecoo 7 followed shortly afterwards.

The results of the study are based on feedback from around 34,650 new car customers in China on construction-related problems, defects and malfunctions in their vehicles. They include 230 models from 48 brands. (aum)
