Shiploads of gray and a slightly messy look, but fit and finish appear to be very good. Seats and steering wheel are sporty too, with some red on them for race. Doors are decorated with alu handles and bars.

The center console is covered with shiny black plastic. Screen of the infotainment system is big enough but non-touch, controlled instead by a controller. Start button on the left of the screen.

Taillights are fashionably small and fashionably connected by a chrome strip, topped by the Chery logo in the middle. Small spoiler integrated in the boot lid. Wheels could be a bit wider but they are not too small.

  1. The build materials don’t look too good, which is atypical of Chery. Guess that is why they’d been steadily losing market share to Geely/Zotye etc.
