Chery surpasses 20 million vehicles sold worldwide in 29 years. A milestone that the Chinese giant proudly announced after putting the July results in black and white: the 20 millionth unit that allowed the Chinese giant to reach a new peak of registrations 29 years after its foundation is a new FULWIN, an extended-range electric coupe. Just as extended is the trail of successes that Chery is conquering at a global level.

Chery, record sales
Significant numbers especially outside China. The company reports that in the first half of 2026 the Group exported 943,800 vehicles (+71.5% over 2025), with a monthly export record for a Chinese manufacturer for four consecutive months: one vehicle every 17 seconds. Looking only at Europe, 174,000 vehicles were delivered between January and June 2026 (+212% year-on-year). In the United Kingdom, to focus further, Chery was among the top two brands in the market for four consecutive months. To date, the brand is present in over 130 countries with about 7 million foreign customers, equal to 35% of the total. The numbers speak clearly: one Chery owner out of three lives outside China.
20 million cars worldwide
The process of reaching 20 million sales in just under three decades was gradual. The first intermediate milestone was reached in August 2007, when Chery was the first Chinese brand to reach 1 million cumulative sales. Then it surpassed the thresholds of 2, 3, 5 and finally 20 million in July 2026. But Chery’s international expansion also concerns production: on July 3rd, in Pretoria, the Group announced the requalification of the Rosslyn plant in South Africa, maintaining all 692 employees and creating nearly 3,000 jobs in the supply chain. Data in hand, the group today counts 150,000 employees worldwide, of which over 20,000 abroad.
