Chery begun the production of the QQ in 2003, later renamed the Chery QQ3 when the QQ6 supermini was launched. I talked before about the copying of the Daewoo Matiz by Chery so I'm not gonna go back on that. The price in China for the Chery QQ is around 3400 euro. The Chery car is also gonna be sold in Europe soon, but with a bit higher price, of around 5000 euro, making it the cheapest car to be sold in Europe. Besides China the Chery is also built in Rusia and Iran. I'm thinking that the Chery cars for Europe will probably be built in the Rusia plant, but I'm not sure on the capacity of that factory. The Chery QQ comes with two engines, both on petrol, and both Euro 3 compliant. The smaller one is a 0.8L and the other is a 1.1L.
An interesting situation is at the Chery Iran plant. Initially the Iran factory was making Daewoo Matiz models. When Daewoo was taken by GM, Iran stopped receiving car kits so they talked with Chery and made a contract for Chery QQ kits. So, again, the resemblance between the Chery QQ and the Daewoo Matiz is amazing.
