On March 30, 2026, under the theme "The Intelligent Rebirth of the National City Car," Chery officially launched its brand-new pure electric model: the 2026 Chery QQ3 EV. Far from being merely a "cheap small car," it is a "city sprite"—a vehicle that packs the intelligent driving experience typically found in ¥200,000-class cars into a compact body priced at just ¥60,000.
Designed specifically for young global commuters, novice drivers, urban mothers, and eco-conscious pioneers, it redefines the concept that "small cars can be premium" through its rounded aesthetics, rear-wheel-drive handling, and AI-driven intelligence.
