Our intrepid journalist David Taylor has just returned from a trip to China where he attended the China motor show. He also got inside information about all the cars that the Chery brand (and all its side hustles) plans to bring to SA in the next few years.
There is a lot of metal to look forward to from the Chinese brand in the next few years including, SUVs, all-electric off-roaders and even a Suzuki Jimny lookalike. If you are looking for more info on all the cars he got to try out in China, here are some links for you to follow.

Dave! Great to see you doing your thing mate! It's been a minute. Just purchased the Tiggo 8 ProMax AWD. What a great car. Thanks to all the positive reviews from the cars team, gave me alot of piece of mind in purchasing the new vehicle.

Doc! Lovely to hear from you. Congratulations on the new wheels!
The Chinese cars are seriously great value. Much better than buying from a European brand, that's for sure. BTW when are you guys coming out with another China Chat video?
Is the Jeacoo J7 coming in a hybrid ? Very interested
1:12 I literally hate the grill of the omodas currently in SA it’s honestly horrendous but this actually looks really good.
Geelie's iCar have 2 versions now (iCAR03 and iCARV23 recently launched) so the smaller one (V23) should be cheaper if it also comes to SA. I doubt they will be converted to ICE as they are designed as a EV. Great to get some first hand feedback. Tell us about the other brands coming as well please.

Jetour coming too! Offroad brand, righ-hand drive production begins this year.

@@DavetheCarGuy what I like about Jetour is that every model looks different from the other . It’s not like there is a small , medium and large version that looks the same with just another name and few features extra.
The Omoda is PROPER LELIK
Supa-Dave!
You're better off asking a fortune teller from the 30s what your car's driving range is than looking at CLTC estimates. Crazy optimistic!
Nothing better than Volvo!!!
That omoda has been recalled in Malaysia 3 times because of a weak subframe, last year it was substandard parts. Not worth the cost

Malaysian factory building the Omoda C5 had a lapse in production. Doesn't affect SA spec cars.

@@labourlawact7826 Yeah, they do. They're dependable. I know a lot of people who have them, and they've hardly had any issues. Only problem is fuel consumption though.
Can they rather bring diesels these petrols are just way too heavy 😂 You have to be brave to try the electric cars we just don't have the infrastructure.
As per our telephonic conversation... HAHAHA!

The partners approve.
The Chinese cars are not cheap enough to take the risk. Unless you are hypnotised by the gimmicks of a touch screen, there is no long term compelling reason to risk what little money we have available to us on the unknown. Fuel economy is another issue which seems to suck our remaining pennies way.

@@Dank-One They have hardly been out 5 years. When I buy a car it must last 20+ years trouble free or at least 350k km. That is why i choose Japanese. I dont doubt they have some nice designs and finishes and they have certainly improved since 10+ years ago. I just dont think they meet my requirements just yet. They are not really that cheap either.

@weetbix2083 They'll never hold up like a Corolla, Camry, Hilux or Landcruiser. I don't care who says what. In twenty year's time they'll all be gone and scrapped. I still drive a 2000 Corolla, trouble free, every single day of my life. I will NEVER EVER buy a Chinese pos. Never😠
