Chery A168, not too bad!

[Quantum]

To reduce financial burden, My sister traded in her 5 years G9 to get Chery A168, occasionally I drove once and loaded 4 adults, to me surprised the engine is quiet, and responsive not lose my sunny , and my sister told me after 1k service FC also become better, now about 13km/l under 50/50 drive pattern, even slightly better than previous G9

of course interior looks much plastic and unrefined handicraft compare to Jap/Tahi cars, else durability, reliability...etc all are doubts, but only use to carry kids to/from school and drive to/from work, should be capable

only $30k+, how much do you expect lah?

the last time i went to chery roadshow at je... i sit inside the A168.... tried to adjust the seat, but the damm knob drop out! lol!

 

their SUV is nice though.. much better build quality.

Its another good choice for a budget ride. Honestly, if i want just a point A to point B ride, why not? at least its a decent car that serve my basic needs, ya? best thing is that its cheap... 30odd K... Picanto seems to cost more nowadays. I think chery or geely is a decent choice if u just want a 4 wheels for maybe a few years...

I test drove the A168 before. Conti ride quality. Can't fault it at this price. Anytime better than Geely CK in ALL aspects.

 

It was named the A160 when first launched, but later renamed A168 for the mildly facelifted model

And I was told by the Vertex that it is essentially a rebadged Seat Toledo.

 

Imagine getting a brand new Spanish continental 4 door saloon (it's actually a cleverly designed 5 dr hatch) for the price of a 1l Perodua Kelisa.

This is still to early to tell, maybe come back after running in for 20K and report whether there are problems to the car

A168 with Conti ride quality har

 

I should have got this car then instead of my Audi RS4

[Legendary]

Conti ride quality

[Beanoyip]

When i viewed the car, the quality and built is worse than a bicycle. Totally turned off.

 

However the chery T11 is much better in terms of build quality.

168 sounds more canto than conti.

"Canto" for Cantonese.

The Chery is using old Seat Toledo body panels as they bought over the tooling, but don't think the engine and underpinnings are ex-Seat ?

 

It can't really be considered a rebadged Seat, more like wearing a Seat skin on the outside.

Lets get real lah, S$30K+ for a new Toledo? When someone bought a Made in China car, please admit that it is a made in China car...a China car! Please remember, it is not a German nor a Italian car.
