Chery Auto has announced that its cumulative global vehicle sales have surpassed 20 million units, marking a significant milestone in the company’s international growth journey. The achievement coincides with Chery Automobile Co., Ltd.’s debut in the 2026 Fortune China 500 as a publicly listed company, where it secured the 87th position. The company also ranked No. 1 among automakers in return on equity (ROE), highlighting its robust financial performance and the success of its global expansion strategy under the “From China to the World” vision.
Further reinforcing its international standing, Chery Auto was recognized in the Kantar BrandZ Top 50 Chinese Global Brand Builders for the ninth consecutive year, retaining the No. 1 position in the automotive category in 2026. The recognition reflects the company’s growing global brand presence, expanding international footprint, and the trust it continues to earn from customers worldwide.
Building on this momentum, LEPAS, Chery Auto’s mid-to-premium NEV brand, is accelerating its global expansion with a strong NEV product offensive. On July 24, the LEPAS L6 EV, an all-electric SUV designed for intelligent urban living, was officially launched in Thailand. On July 26, the LEPAS L8 PHEV officially went on sale in Indonesia. Looking ahead, LEPAS will continue to expand its global footprint throughout the third quarter of 2026, with the LEPAS L8 PHEV, LEPAS L6 EV, LEPAS L6 PHEV and LEPAS L4 EV set to enter markets across Europe, Southeast Asia, Australia, Africa and the Middle East.
The coordinated rollout of LEPAS’ three NEV models across global markets marks another significant milestone in the brand’s international expansion. This accelerated product deployment not only demonstrates LEPAS’ strong operational capabilities, but also reflects its long-term commitment to building a sustainable global presence.
As its NEV product portfolio continues to expand worldwide, LEPAS will leverage Chery Group’s global ecosystem spanning vehicle manufacturing, core components, embodied AI robotics, modern services and intelligent technologies to further localize its R&D, manufacturing, sales network and after-sales services. By combining elegant design, intelligent innovation and dependable quality, LEPAS is committed to delivering an elevated mobility experience tailored to the needs of customers around the world, while contributing to the global transition toward sustainable mobility.
