Following its market launch in March 2023, Chery Australia celebrated two significant milestones in June 2024. 

The distributor surpassed 10,000 sales in Australia and achieved more than 1000 monthly sales for the first time in June 2024 (1,079 units – June VFACTS).

“As a growth market, we are proud to reach these milestones in Australia so soon after celebrating our first anniversary,” Chery Australia chief executive Lewis Lu says.

“Achieving 10,000 sales is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our local team, dealership network, and the ongoing support of our customers. Reaching 1000 sales in a single month for the first time demonstrates the increasing demand for our vehicles and the strong market acceptance of Chery in Australia,” he says

Over the past year, Chery has introduced three new models: the crossover-style SUV Omoda 5, the medium-sized Tiggo 7 Pro, and the seven-seater Tiggo 8 Pro Max. Additionally, Chery plans to launch its first electric vehicle, the Omoda E5, later this year.

“Our goal is to continue growing our market share and enhancing our brand’s reputation and awareness in Australia,” Lu says.
