As reported by the agency «Autostat», as of July 1 of the current year, the park of passenger cars of Chinese brands in Russia amounted to 1.08 million units. Their share already accounts for 2.4% of the total passenger car fleet of the country.

The leader among the 'Chinese' is the company Chery: by mid-2023, 304.3 thousand Chery cars are registered in Russia - 28% of all the 'Chinese'. In second place is Geely (210.2 thousand units), in third place is Lifan (152.4 thousand units). Haval (141.9 thousand units) and Great Wall (121.4 thousand units) also made it to the top-5. In total, the brands from the top-5 account for 85% of the registered Chinese cars.

As for the statistics by models, the most common ones are Chery Tiggo. Also popular among Russians are Lifan X60, Great Wall Hover H3 and Lifan Solano. However, these models are no longer sold in the Russian Federation. But they are followed by newcomers - Geely Coolray, Haval Jolion and Chery Tiggo 7 Pro.

Considering such popularity of Chery cars, it is not surprising that the company is considering the possibility of manufacturing its cars in Russia.
