Chery V5 Crossover (Chery B14) MPV
The Chery B14 MPV be a nice competitor to the Naza Ria and Toyota Innova if it is priced below RM100,000. It’s also known as the Chery V5 Crossover. The MPV is a 7-seater powered by 2.0 petrol, 2.4 petrol or 1.9 turbodiesel engine options. I’m guessing the petrol engine options are the same as the Chery Tiggo’s and we’ll get the 2.0 liter unit. It was first unveiled as a concept vehicle at the 2004 Beijing Motor Show.
Alado Corp Sdn Bhd plans to assemble the Chery V5 Crossover locally at Oriental Assembler Sdn Bhd’s plant in Johor Baru in October 2006. This 7-seater MPV should be on sale in November 2006 if plans go smoothly.

The rear side looks very much like Honda Stream.
July 2, 2006 @ 5:16 am
looks like a bloody odyssey to me
July 2, 2006 @ 6:52 am
Central console looks like Sorento’s.
It had help from the Norfolk company for chasis tuning though.
July 2, 2006 @ 8:09 am
hhmm…the profile like nissan presage to me..
July 2, 2006 @ 11:05 am
the color of the interior is a bit….weird?
July 2, 2006 @ 12:00 pm
Wah! Budget ‘bling-bling’ mobile!
July 2, 2006 @ 1:52 pm
how come thy get away with copy designs like that everytime china introduces a car??i cant believe it…n imagin the amount of stick and humour one gets wen seen driven in one of thse cars…he wil lose repects in a split second…
July 2, 2006 @ 2:14 pm
why got purple-yellowish two tone dashboard there?looks pelik pelik 1…macam kek lapis :p
July 2, 2006 @ 2:32 pm
It’s the same as owning a proton wira. Since proton said that it’s locally made… why lose respect when owning this car? Don’t know bout the quality but from the images shown… I must say it’s not bad…
July 2, 2006 @ 2:41 pm
Saab front lights + Wish side profile + Stream (or maybe Focus) rear + almost Audi front grille = whut’s its name again?? oh yea… the Chery V5 Crossover.
Sheesh…
July 2, 2006 @ 3:48 pm
VOLVO S40 + MG ROVER + NISSAN PRESAGE LOL
July 2, 2006 @ 9:34 pm
Let’s face it… it is very unique but what about the maintainace? We all know that Korean cars are dirt cheap but maintainance is f***ing expensive! Chinese-made cars could follow the same as their Korean counterpart.
July 2, 2006 @ 9:40 pm
hahha…agree wit u xg9…the rear really looks like nissan presage…
July 2, 2006 @ 10:09 pm
donno how dey gonna survive .
da oni way maybe is through da price .
July 2, 2006 @ 10:34 pm
Hey, look closer at the logo. They even copied that from Toyota.
Person who own Chery car must be thick face enough.
July 2, 2006 @ 10:56 pm
interior & dash color weird to me..
like cheese cake..wit chocolate on top…
uargg…
July 2, 2006 @ 11:38 pm
I think its because china has weak copy right laws (maybe none) so they can copy away. BTW, that is the display model, I would like to see how the market model interior would be like
July 3, 2006 @ 10:00 am
Dun wanna talk about the look so much coz it’s normal la nowadays, copy there a bit copy here a bit. Normail what??… What to complain?… The real issue is the quality. Learning form NAZA Bestari, it’s gonna be headache for the rest of the life.
July 3, 2006 @ 10:12 am
nothing wrong with copying. the germans did it before ww1, the japs did it after ww2, the koreans are just coming out of it. I don’t mind copied products at all, as long as it is good value for money. What good is a product of orignal design but gives you lousy value for money? I say bring on the copycats and flood the market with cheap cars! Let the buyers sort them out.
July 3, 2006 @ 1:25 pm
Anyone cant afford to buy Volvo SUV, can buy this one.. but sure will get veeerry bad resale value… Datuk Cam Soh so desprate to penetrate our market with china’s cars… Boleh ka??.. He thinks he can.. bcoz he have faith with our national’s slogan.. Malaysia Boleh!!
ps: China’s cars tak boleh, but taxboleh!!
July 3, 2006 @ 1:36 pm
nice car…
July 3, 2006 @ 1:38 pm
i got no problem with the look, because i concern more wit the quality, but china car has bad reputation on that respect. but good design for cherry (discounted away the copy cat thingy hehehe). should the price is right, i dont mind driving one
July 3, 2006 @ 2:08 pm
At least its better looking than Innova… Innova just look kinda strange for me… even when the bodykit is up… btw, how’s the safety for this B14? and the dashboard colour looks funny… but acceptable… maybe for some ppl…
July 3, 2006 @ 6:57 pm
As long as the price are right, safety are taking care off, why not. This is a beautiful car. Why no respect as long as you bought it with your hard earned money.
July 3, 2006 @ 7:00 pm

July 3, 2006 @ 10:29 pm
yup…
July 5, 2006 @ 11:50 am
Guys, for any manufacturer products, either cars, mpvs or suvs, which one would you recommend or would be a better model choice. Petrol 2.0 litre or 1.9 turbodiesel? I need to know before making a buy..
Thank you in advance

Eeeuuuwww… *PUKE*

[...] As I previously reported, Chery also intends to assemble an MPV and an SUV here in Malaysia, the Chery B14 V5 Crossover and the Chery T11 Tiggo. While previous reports suggested they might be assembled at Oriental Assembler Sdn Bhd’s plant in Johor Baru, Alado group executive chairman Tan Sri Cam Soh Thiam Hong said at the QQ launch that Alado is currently in talks with a few other assemblers and Proton tops it’s list of preferred assemblers. This would be in line with Proton’s alliance talks with Chery, which would result in Proton assembling it’s vehicles at Chery’s plant in China and Chery assembling it’s vehicles in Proton’s plant here. [...]

[...] Even if the car launch on Tuesday isn’t the CKD Inokom Getz, you can expect the car to be launched soon as uncamouflaged road tests are already underway. Let’s do a little bit of speculation here – if it’s not the Inokom Getz, what could it be? In fact, I don’t see why Inokom car should be launched in Johor as the car is likely to be made in the Kulim plant, since road tests have been going on in Kulim. Who has an assembly plant in Johor? Oriental Assembler Sdn Bhd comes to mind. And Oriental Assembler has been generally associated with China makes of late, with reports of talks with Chery and Geely to assemble vehicles there. Could this be a locally badged China make? [...]

I say it’s a good mpv car…by the look of it…this segment of car market in M’sia is not fully tapped and most of Malaysian families would choose a mpv for next new car . If the quality can be level with proton then it is worth to buy .There are peoples like me who are still waiting patiently to make the right move. For an ideal mpv …a Malaysian one . An ideal mpv car in Malaysia market would be :
1st ….fair price , say RM60K to 80K .
2nd….. it’s a mpv (8 persons) good seating arrangement, folding or whatever
3rd ….. 2 ltr fuel injection engine( can both operate either on petrol or LPG) vvti, timing chained, (near to free maintenance engine) . I can change the lube me self hehe..
4th double blower or each row seating with a/cond..
5th … ABS ,EBD, air bag …..no need coz have to cut cost.onces pop up so costly to ’set in’ the air bag RM1K or more..depends..
6th ….5 yrs waranty
7th ..proton to be appointed a 3S (sales , service and supplier of part) and also the manufacturer of parts..
…….wow what a deal..as add on… whoever tread-in a any proton car and get a 30% disc. credit to the loyal citizen….again wow….what a deal of the century…
..For sure proton will definately make a lot of fortune..
p/s : still have faith in proton…me and my easy and cheap to maintain wira
June 29, 2007 @ 1:34 am
This car looks really nice, I would buy it if the price is reasonable.This car looks much better than proton cars.

Sorry I looked at it really carefully and I cannot spot any resemblance, it gotta be your eyes mate. Chery logo looks nothing like Toyota logo. I think your face must be really thick to make that accusation,

This is car is better looks than Proton? Which one, nearest is Juara. If this is the case, you are rights.
I am in the opinion the design is stylist and way better than Innova, but quality aspect???????
July 2, 2007 @ 7:48 pm
dun insult the juara
July 3, 2007 @ 9:32 am
Design passable for under budget car pricing category. The colour combination of the interior obviously odd..anyway, China is notably best COPIER in the world.U should also see its other made Cars,emblems, IT euipment, Electrical appliances & especially Dvds.
July 4, 2007 @ 2:38 pm
xstan, i second that. china has copycat in almost every product
July 4, 2007 @ 7:16 pm
Too expensive
November 15, 2008 @ 8:10 am
waa.. This is a beautiful car.i think this is nice MPV compared with new proton MPV, nissan livina besides the price is affordable as well.I cannot spot any resemblance at this car. the design is stylist.. isn’t it?
i have fren who already own this car, from his experience, he said that the quality aspects of this car is good.
People, why no respect for those own this car, as long as they bought it with their hard earned money. there also nothing wrong with copying. the other car also did same way. as long as the design is stylist is orait
February 7, 2009 @ 7:11 pm
Saya baru tengok kereta ni tadi. Memang MPV ini agak menarik.
Enjin 2.4L Mitsubishi. Harga RM 81K – 83K. Ruang kaki pada seat paling
belakang selesa. Kalau unser kaki kena bengkok sikit.
Saya setuju dgn harrypotter & kobe15.
March 10, 2009 @ 9:47 am
Ths is a wonderful MPV, come wth a powerful 2.4L Mitsubishi engine which produce 130 horsepower and 198Nm of torque, a 4-speed gearbox with manual shifting features, SRS airbags, ABS system, 4662mm long, 1820mm wide and 1590mm tall….& it is selling only RM79k-RM89k…..what u aspect? aspest from Proton?
i don’t think Proton can give u ths kind of MPV in such a low price!! Proton Exora? Just compare the look & the interior….ths Chery Eastar is much more better, & bigger! I even can say tht it is better looking thn the Toyota Innova. Me myself driving a Proton & i am understand tht, Proton is suck!!! & the service is terrible…imagine u gonna wait for 24hrs jus to change the car oil…Proton memang Boleh!!
I saw ths Chery Eastar in The Curve few days ago, thy give me a very good price & i’m going to have a test drive ths afternoon!! If the performance is not bad thn the Proton, i’m very happy to have one!!
Proton, u really need to improve ur product & services to win back ur customer…if not, not only lose to Jap but China as well…& i’m one of them!
