Chery resale values in South Africa

Chery first sold cars in South Africa from 2008 through the Imperial group before fading out by 2018, then returned in late 2021 as a wholly owned factory subsidiary. The relaunched brand became a top-ten seller on the back of the Tiggo SUV range, sharp pricing and a 10-year/1-million km engine warranty.
