Which Chery model has the best export sales?
Chery's global journey is led by these two "million-unit club" star models
 
In the wave of China's automobile industry going overseas, Chery Automobile has been the export champion of Chinese passenger car brands for 22 consecutive years, writing a global chapter of "Made in China"7. As Chery Group's overall export volume is about to exceed 5 million vehicles in 2025 - on average, a Chery car will be shipped overseas every 29 seconds1 - a key question emerges: Which model has carried the banner of Chery's globalization .
Undisputed champion: Tiggo 7
In Chery's export camp, Tiggo 7 ranks first with an overwhelming advantage, becoming the most shining business card of Chery's overseas strategy.
      In 2024, the export volume of Tiggo 7 alone reached 238,000 units, not only becoming Chery's highest-exported model, but also winning the title of "China's highest-exported single model"3. Behind this achievement is its excellent global adaptability - from the steep mountain roads in Brazil, the cold climate in Russia to the hot deserts in the Middle East, Tiggo 7 has conquered diverse international markets with its reliable performance7.

 
      In November 2024, Tiggo 7 ushered in a historic moment: the 1 millionth model was officially exported overseas, becoming the first SUV among Chinese brands to enter the "million export club"5. This milestone not only confirms its product strength, but also demonstrates the international market's recognition of the quality of Chinese cars.
 
"Global boutique" following closely: Tiggo 5X
Following the footsteps of Tiggo 7, Tiggo 5x solemnly set sail at Dalian Port on March 3, 2025 as its 1 millionth export model, becoming Chery's second star product to enter the "million export club"45.
 
This model, positioned as a "global fashion boutique SUV", has been sold to more than 80 countries and regions around the world, especially in Europe, South America and the Middle East.4. As Chery's export champion in the A0-class SUV market, its success stems from precise positioning:
 
         Five-star safety certification: Setting a quality benchmark with Australia's ANCAP five-star safety rating5
 
          Super value configuration: 10.33-inch smart central control screen, Bosch ESP system and other cross-level configurations
 
Affordable price: The domestic starting price is only 59,900 yuan, and the overseas cost-effectiveness advantage is significant5
 
The 1.5L engine equipped in the Tiggo 5x Excellence Edition has a thermal efficiency of 40%, achieving a perfect balance between fuel economy and power smoothness5, making it an ideal choice for family cars in emerging markets.
 
Chery's export team: the victory of diversified layout
Although Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 5x lead the export list, Chery's success lies in its construction of a multi-level and wide-coverage global product matrix:
 
Tiggo 8 Plus: Annual overseas sales of nearly 200,000 units, praised by overseas media as "an excellent student with comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness and aesthetics"2
 
Omoda series: ranked among the top three Chery export models in 20247, with design language in line with the aesthetics of young consumers
 
Jetour Traveler: landed in 35 countries and set off a "travel +" trend in the Middle East and Eastern Europe7
 
High-end brand Exeed: positioned high-end in overseas markets, with a price comparable to Lexus7
 
From January to May 2025, Chery Group's exports reached 443,940 units, a year-on-year increase of 7.7%1. The core of its globalization strategy lies in "three developments": regulatory adaptation development for different markets, product adaptability development and special development of competitiveness7. This localized thinking has won Chery the trust of 4.94 million overseas users in 110 countries1.
 
The driving force behind the champion
The success of Chery's export models is by no means accidental, and it is supported by systematic advantages:
 
Technology empowerment: core technology breakthroughs such as Kunpeng power system (thermal efficiency of 48%) and 30,000-rpm high-speed motor1
 
Global R&D: Eight R&D centers and 300+ Yaoguang laboratories build a technological moat7
 
Localization and deep cultivation: The localization rate of the Spanish factory is 80%, and the Malaysian production base radiates Southeast Asia 310
 
Multi-brand strategy: Seven major brands cover the full spectrum of needs from economy to luxury6
 
Chery Automobile Chairman Yin Tongyue emphasized at the 2025 Hong Kong International Auto Expo: "Globalization is not a simple trade export, but a value co-creation."1 This concept guides Chery's strategic leap from "product export" to "technology export" and "ecological export".
 
In June 2025, as Chery is about to cross the 5 million export milestone1, the "double million export models" consisting of Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 5x have become a symbol of China's automobile globalization process.
 
Their success proves that when technological innovation is combined with deep insight into global needs, Chinese cars can not only go to the world, but also win the world. In Chery's blueprint, these champion models are just the starting point - with Hong Kong listing and internationalization as a springboard1, Chery is accelerating its transformation into a "global leading mobile technology company" and continuing to write the global legend of Chinese cars.
