Any way, this one for you Chery owners and fans

https://www.malaymail.com/news/money/2024/0...-factory/129220

Chery is the second Chinese carmaker to move into Europe after Chinas top electric carmaker BYD said in December it would build a factory in Hungary as it pushes ahead with plans to expand into Europe despite growing competition concerns.

Does the multi link rear setup justify the price bump?

And the charging flap failed design, so thoughtlessness and carelessness.

Well, because charging with MG or BYD even Ora does not have this hood vs flap issue, competition has no such inconvenience issue, hence I think he has a point. It may not bother u, but I think some will be bothered. Especially if you are the type that is a bit clumsy and forgetful wink.gif

Verdict : Worth a try

But how many will.want to" try" with their money? We need more compelling verdict to part with our money, our hard learned money and few years long term loan commitment

Top Gear verdict...


GOOD STUFF
Powertrain is OK. So’s the styling

BAD STUFF
You can do better than OK. Chassis not very OK anyway


WHAT'S THE VERDICT?
“A family crossover by numbers. Too much of a cliche and not individual. Battery and motor tech shows promise though”
On the face of it, buying one of these isn't an overt act of self-harm. It's not rubbish. For the money it's decently equipped and spacious and looks OK. It also has a long guarantee. The average buyer might think: why not?

Let's invert the question. Why? There are just so many better choices

CKD soon but do you think it can be cheaper?

Just read from Pault*n

QUOTE

In the automotive industry, keeping manufacturing costs as low as possible is paramount, as the higher the cost, the less competitive one becomes. How a market thrives – or doesn’t – is largely determined by its ability to secure or produce elements in the supply chain, be it in the form of components or materials needed for production, in cost-effective terms.


Malaysia is lagging behind, and that’s an important factor curbing its growth. That’s the opinion expressed by Geely chairman Li Shufu, who said the competitiveness of Malaysia’s automotive industry is being restricted by its automotive supply chain costs, which are about 30% higher than China’s and more than 10% higher than Thailand.

In an interview on state-owned CCTV programme “Dialogue,” which was picked up by Chinese tech website CNMO, Li said that the fundamental reason for the high cost of Malaysia’s automotive supply chain lies in the lack of competitiveness of local parts...
So do we have to sacrifice some features to have a cheaper CKD version ? I wonder how.....

Yes. But few can match BYD in the way it get seen, heard and talked about ...

BYD is now like Xiaomi, they are everywhere and in not so subtle way, I may add

Look at their newest invested facility ...

https://soyacincau.com/2024/06/27/byd-harta...tre-service-3s/

If only buying car is about spec, Chery Omoda may win, but when thinking about the whole ownership confidence and service, BYD wins big

And BYD probably also has economies of scale. It’s actually one of the top selling EV items in Australia

Yes BYD has the bigger numbers in every sense

anyways to each their own...

I was talking about BYD being the bigger brand than Chery. And people do but into bigger brand. It is part of the buying decision.

MG brand is also bigger than Chery

Just watched this video also 2 days ago. While its probably true that the E5 is the best among those 3 cars, in Malaysia the E5 is RM147k and the MG4 can be gotten for RM104k albeit in a lower trim level. So, IMO the MG4 is the clear winner in terms of value for money in Malaysia at 41% cheaper. I hope that we get more competition in the circa RM150k range so that we, the consumers can benefit from more choice and better prices due to competition among the car makers.

I can relate to that. Among these three brands , MG also resonates more with me and personally I would rate MG>BYD>Chery.

However, MG products tend to be long in tooth especially MG ZS which is at least a high riding car model although not quite in the same breadth (read spec ) as E5 and Atto 3
