Chery to start selling cars in the UK: new Chinese brand coming this summer
July 08, 2025 by Jamie Edkins

Car changing is a big deal
Chery International, parent company to Omoda and Jaecoo, will start selling cars in the UK this year, and its first model will be unveiled at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
It seems as though a new Chinese brand is introduced to the UK every week, and this week it鈥檚 Chery International. If that name seems familiar, it鈥檚 because Chery also owns Omoda and Jaecoo.
Chery鈥檚 first UK models will be unveiled at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, both of them SUVs. They will be 鈥淯K-optimised Chery models鈥, which suggests that we may be getting tweaked versions of the Tiggo series of cars it sells overseas.

What is Chery?
Chery may be a new brand to the UK, but it鈥檚 actually been around in China since 1997. It鈥檚 also the largest exporter of vehicles from China, selling over 2.6 million cars worldwide in 2024. That鈥檚 around 800,000 more than Tesla managed to shift.
It鈥檚 also the parent company to Omoda and Jaecoo. The car we know in the UK as the Omoda 5 is actually badged as the Chery Omoda 5 in other markets, so technically you鈥檝e been able to buy a Chery for about a year now.
But now it鈥檚 coming to the UK under its own name, and you鈥檒l be able to buy Chery cars in dealerships across the country. A lot of them will also sell Omoda and Jaecoo models, so you鈥檒l see all three brands under one roof.
New Chery SUVs: what will they be?
Good question. Chery has remained tight-lipped on this, only going as far as to say its two new SUVs will be 鈥渙ptimised for the local market in specification and pricing鈥. This suggests that it鈥檒l be bringing over two existing models.

It could include the Chery Tiggo 9 鈥 a large seven-seat SUV which uses a 2.0-litre petrol engine which could go up against cars like the Skoda Kodiaq. It also sells a variety of other SUVs ranging from a Volkswagen T-Cross alternative to a Kia Sportage-sized model.
Chery will reveal its two new UK models at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in a few days time, so stay tuned to find out what it has in store.
