Chery S12 to enter South American market
After a short pause because of the recent change in ownership over at Chrysler, the talks between Chery and Chrysler on their small car collaboration has resumed.
Two cars are being discussed – one is a Chery model that will be badged as a Chrysler in the US market. CKD kits of the Chery S12 will be shipped to Mexico and South America, and the kit will be assembled there for sale in those markets. The Southern American states share similar fate to South East Asia, we always get the boring stuff.
For other markets where something more premium is needed, Chrysler and Chery intends to produce a production version of the Dodge Hornet concept car in China, both engineered and manufactured at Chery’s research center and plant in Wuhu, Anhui.
Production could begin in 2010.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Is this a 1.0 ?
it seem like the Hyundai Matrix!!!
since the proce of petrol keep increasing, demand for car with small engine capacity should be increasing too..
This is China's Inokom.
… with Fiat Punto's face.
is the car totally new? not based on any car?
The design looks clean and neat. A vast improvement over the QQ. Dont think the car on the pic is a copycat of other compacts.Credits should be given to them.
this is mix blood k-car … lol … but no intrest la …
I can see some Fiat DNA in the car…
Well at least the collaboration is heading somewhere and generating potantial demand in the new markets, unlike P1-VW negotiation, which nobody has a clue.
Lovely clear headlamps
I say…..looks really nice compared to the QQ / QQR …..wonder if this is coming to our Bolehland/Taxland in the very near future…?
its some evidence of pininfarina line if im not wrong.
our shores will be fill with more low quality asian cars.
Chrysler are not healthy at all now. Too much money has to be paid to healthcare for retirrees. 1 working : 3 retirees the going rate now. No more Daimler in it, now Cerberus, so maybe this is as cost cutting measure, something like Rover-TATA?
Looks like a face-lifted Hyundai Getz.
to develope a new car are damn expensive, so it more cost effective to buy or so called "collaboration" to get a new model…. these are different as opposed to those company and sister company relationship such as Audi, VW and Skoda. Chrysler and Chery are not under the same umbrella, does Chrysler acknowledge Cherry as their sister company ? DEFINATELY NOT!
So can we badge Chrysler an Assembler ? LoL!
(as P2 are, all model are brought over from Daihatsu with minor modifs… does Daihatsu/Toyota acknowledge P2 are apart of them ?
DEFINATELY NOT! )
Hi all
Thru my experience for years, if a car with gear either reverse or any gears and engine off, once when it start the engine again, the car won’t start and only “jerky” a bit.
Is that any scenario that the car will reverse or moving quite a distance on it own?
Can any expert reply me or can direct email to me. You help much appreciated.
