Chery Group, a leading Chinese automaker, has achieved two historic milestones in its global expansion journey: becoming the first Chinese automaker to export over 5 million vehicles and being recognized as the fastest-rising automaker on the 2025 Fortune Global 500 list, climbing to 233rd place with revenues of $59.69 billion.

Record-Breaking Export Growth

Since its first vehicle export in 2001, Chery Group has steadily grown into a global automotive leader.

In 2024, the company exported 1.14 million vehicles, maintaining its title as China’s top passenger car exporter for 22 consecutive years.
By the first half of 2025, Chery had exported 550,000 vehicles, accounting for 44% of its total sales.
Notably, the European market has seen remarkable growth, with Chery achieving an elevenfold year-on-year increase in sales and new energy vehicles (NEVs) making up 45% of sales.

Global Integration and Localization

Chery’s success extends beyond exports. The company has fully embraced a “localization-first” strategy, summarized by its philosophy: “In somewhere, for somewhere.”

Chery collaborates with local partners, such as EV MOTORS in Spain, to revitalize historic brands like EBRO, creating jobs and boosting economies.
Public welfare initiatives include partnerships with IUCN and UNICEF, further establishing Chery as a socially responsible global brand.

Commitment to Innovation and Safety

Chery’s rise is fueled by innovation and a commitment to safety:

In 2025, Chery conducted safety tests under extreme global conditions, such as high-speed collisions, extreme temperatures, and underwater battery submersion tests.
Its “Guardian Battery” technology and advanced AI applications, like the AiMOGA humanoid robot, highlight its leadership in intelligent mobility.
The automaker has also pioneered comprehensive safety testing in six extreme environments, showcasing its philosophy of “Safety for Family.”

Global Recognition and Future Vision

Chery has solidified its position as a global automotive leader:

It has been listed on the Fortune Global 500 for two consecutive years, rising 152 places in 2025.
For the eighth consecutive year, it ranked in the Kantar BrandZ Top 50 Chinese Global Brand Builders.

With over 17 million customers worldwide, including 5 million overseas, Chery aims to build a world-class intelligent mobility ecosystem. Its “Dual 500” achievement marks a new era of global brand expansion, driven by innovation, sustainability, and a commitment to delivering high-quality vehicles to customers worldwide.
