Recently, Chery Auto Philippines posted a 351-percent sales increase in the first half of 2021 as compared to the same period last year. This shows that it will likely deliver promising results in terms of sales for the rest of the year.
The Chery Tiggo 7 Pro leads the way
Now, in the seventh month of 2021, the Chinese automaker managed to top its 2020 sales already by 42 percent more. Additionally, the brand’s July 2021 sales are up by 122 percent over July 2020. Part of the said feat is the slow recovery of the economy that first collapsed last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“The highly encouraging positive results came from a combination of factors led by the growing awareness of the Chery brand and the high-value buyers get from our feature-packed crossovers,” said Chery Auto Philippines President Rommel Sytin.
