As I’ve immersed myself in China’s vibrant automotive scene, one thing is crystal clear: Chery is shaping the future of mobility today. With groundbreaking innovations in software-defined vehicles, solid-state batteries, and advanced safety technologies—including vehicles that withstand 60 mph crash tests—Chery is not just keeping pace; they’re leading the charge.
