Chery’s expanding UK passenger-car presence is worth watching from the commercial vehicle sector because the Chinese group is also preparing to introduce DELIVAN.
The latest registration figures cover the company’s car brands rather than vans, but show how the challenger brand has hit the ground running with its sales and distribution momentum across the wider business. DELIVAN is expected to enter the UK van market in 2027.
Omoda&Jaecoo recorded 9,226 registrations in the month, a 6.1% share of the UK new-car market. Jaecoo 7 is the UK’s highest-registering new car in October, with Jaecoo 5, Omoda 5 and Chery TIGGO 8 also in the top 30.
Chery recorded 3,707 registrations for the period, a 2.4% market share, while LEPAS achieves 656 registrations.
