Four wheels? No, two legs! Chery enters the market for Smart Robots

  • Chery and Aimoga have joined forces to create a bipedal robot with Embodied AI named Mornine
  • New robot will be designed for different applications, including working in the auto industry and supporting customers
  • Mornine to usher in a complete product range for Chery

Chery has stunned guests to its CEO Conference by announcing that it will launch a completely new model – a bipedal robot driven by artificial intelligence – at the conference.

The robot is called Mornine, and it has a highly biomimetic design to mimic the shape and movement of a human. It was designed by Chery in partnership with Aimoga, a technology company with deep expertise in robotics and artificial intelligence.

Mornine will feature a human-like face made from lifelike silicone that can move and mimic human oral and facial muscles. This, combined with its in-built Large Language Model (LLM), means that Mornine will be able to answer questions, respond to instructions and assist people in a natural and humanlike way.

For Chery, the new humanoid robot is not merely a showcase of its engineering capabilities. It sees this as a new model range that will be able to meet the needs of a new range of customers. For instance, Mornine could act as a guide, a salesperson, a receptionist or even – in later iterations – as a caregiver, guide, domestic assistant and nurse.
According to the company, Mornine will develop its capabilities in three distinct phases.

The first phase will see Mornine act as an information provider. In this phase, the robot will interact with customers to answer questions and provide information. While offering this service, the robot will increasingly learn how to interact with humans and learn different accents, conversation styles and the typical needs of customers.

During the second phase, Mornine will progress to use more of its advanced capabilities, such as visual recognition and autonomous navigation. This will include walking with customers to assist them, using its arms for demonstrations or other operations and even helping customers with certain tasks.

In its third and final development phase, Mornine will use what it has learned to become a competent assistant to its human owners. This can include services such as child minding and education, assisting elderly customers with home tasks and even cleaning and cooking for its owner.

“In launching Mornine, Chery will celebrate the pioneers in the world of humanoid robots, such as the well-known Atlas of Boston Dynamics, and show how it has used its extensive knowledge of customer requirements, engineering and machine-human interfaces to take humanoid robots to a completely new level.

“In time, we see a potential market for Chery Humanoid Robots to help customers with menial tasks and even assist those with physical challenges to enjoy a full and rewarding life,” says Tony Liu, Deputy General Manager of Chery South Africa, who is attending the conference and the Auto China show with dealers and media from South Africa.

Chery to unveil New Energy, New Eco, New Era at Beijing Auto Show

Chery – China’s biggest vehicle exporter and a global technology leader – will unveil the next phase of its rapidly advancing technology at this year’s Beijing Auto Show.

The Beijing Auto Show is scheduled for 25 to 30 April at the Beijing International Exhibition Centre in China’s capital city. The show has evolved from humble roots as a national motor show in 1990 to the largest and arguably the most influential new vehicle and auto industry show in the world, and Chery is once again taking the centre stage.

“New energy vehicles (NEVs) are the talk of the town in Beijing and Chery is getting ready to wow visitors with the fourth generation of its QPower platform. While the platform is designed for zero emission vehicles, it also accommodates low emission internal combustion engines, hybrid models and hydrogen power, making it truly groundbreaking,” says Tony Liu, Deputy General Manager of Chery South Africa.

Liu and a group of South African dealers will join the global dealer conference that is scheduled to be held alongside the Beijing Auto Show. Chery will host media and dealers from across its global network at the show and conference to share the exciting news about the QPower platform and launch a number of new vehicles.

To capture the importance of the show and dealer conference, Chery has coined the phrase “New Energy, New Eco, New Era”.

According to Liu, the rise of new energy vehicles has forever changed the trajectory of automobile manufacturing.

This green revolution has seen the global sales of new energy vehicles (NEV) surge to 14.6 million units in 2023 with an expectancy that it will surpass 18 million units in 2024.

Chery expects the growth to accelerate further as it, and other global leaders, address factors such as range anxiety, governments’ eagerness to bolster NEV adoption with policy incentives as well as consumers’ heightened conservation and energy sensitivities.

Returning to the new QPower platform, Chery has hinted at next-generation performance from its hybrid and EV versions that have previously been considered impossible. For instance, Chery will show in Beijing how its new hybrid models will use advances in ICE and EV technology to deliver a fuel range of over 1 400 km per tank.

Add to this an average fuel consumption of only 4.2 litres / 100 km and a tested acceleration figure of only 4.26 seconds to 100 km/h from standstill.

To achieve these incredible numbers Chery engineers combined its know-how across all technologies. For instance, the new hybrid models use two electric motors for rapid acceleration, but also to double energy harvesting when coasting.

At the same time, the ICE part of the hybrid system has a thermal efficiency rate of 44.5%, giving it better performance per litre of fuel than nearly any other combustion engine in a hybrid or traditional vehicle.

“At Beijing, we will show how Chery is combining these rapid advancements in green technology with advancements in self-driving, artificial intelligence and smarter human-vehicle interfaces,” says Liu.

These advancements include new cockpit technology that gives meaning to the concept of making a car the owner’s “third living space” and using artificial intelligence to pair different manufacturing facilities to roll out new environmentally friendly innovations in real time and turn these factories into zero emission and zero-defect “super factories”.

“We invite our Chery family and fans of the brand to watch the news as we unveil the next generation of vehicles with the promise that these technologies will not only be a showpiece, but form the heart of our new models, both in China and here in South Africa,” says Liu.

Enjoy Your First Class – In All Wheel Drive

Chery South Africa has unveiled its long-awaited new flagship, the Chery Tiggo 8 Pro MAX with all-wheel drive.

The new model joins the growing Tiggo Pro line-up as the top of the range model and promises to welcome even more customers to this fast-growing family. The Awd model will be the third model in the lineup – Starting with T8 Pro Executive 1.6 FWD and the T8 Pro Max 2.0 FWD.

At the heart of the Chery Tiggo 8 Pro MAX AWD is the platform and specification of its two-wheel drive sibling. This means that the new flagship lacks for nothing in terms of performance, specification, or luxury fitment.

What is new, is the proprietary Chery all-wheel drive system. The system has a front-wheel drive bias during normal driving. This benefits the vehicle’s average fuel consumption and everyday driveability, while also offering a familiar driving experience to existing Tiggo 8 Pro MAX owners.

When drivers shift from everyday commuting to more spirited driving, or finds themselves in slippery and wet conditions, the all-wheel drive system comes into play.

“Our engineers have spent a considerable amount of development and testing hours with the all-wheel drive system to ensure that it is robust enough to work in the blink of an eye, but that it also offers a long operational life,” says Tony Liu, Deputy General Manager of Chery South Africa.

The result of all this development is an all-wheel drive system that can switch from two- to four-wheel drive in 100 milliseconds. This means the operation is imperceptible to the driver, while providing additional grip and stability on slippery surfaces or during high-speed dynamic driving.

During its development, Chery repeatedly pushed up to ten times the expected vehicle torque through the all-wheel drive system to ensure that its operation remains faultless and fast, regardless of the conditions or the workload.

“Chery completed another round of extreme weather testing in 2023. The results of these tests have been incorporated in the design of the all-wheel drive system. It means that whether the driver finds him/herself in snowy or desert conditions, the Tiggo 8 Pro MAX AWD will deliver,” says Liu.

The wheels are driven by Chery’s award-winning 2.0 TDGI turbo-petrol engine. The engine has been programmed to deliver 187 kW at 5 500 rpm and 390 Nm from 2 000 rpm to 4 000 rpm, while the 7DCT dual-clutch self-shifting transmission has been mapped to smoothly deliver this power to two- or four wheels as required.

As with the Tiggo 8 Pro MAX, the MAX AWD model is built on Chery’s flagship platform that uses ultra-high tensile steel in over 60% of the body construction. Add to this a complete list of Autonomous Driver Assistant Systems (ADAS) and no-less than nine airbags (10 airbags for AWD) and you have one of the safest vehicles in its class.

The ADAS systems that come standard in this flagship model include autonomous emergency braking (AEV), adaptive cruise control with radar controls, lane keep assistance (LKA), rear cross traffic alert (RTCA), traffic congestion assistance (TJA) and even a driving view recorder (DVR) as standard . the Advance ADSA feature for the AWD are as follows, DMS (Driver Monitoring System), Emergency Lane Keeping & Lane Departure Prevention & Intelligent Evasion System.

Move to luxury and the Chery is peerless. The new flagship offers quilted leather upholstery on all seven seats, the door bolsters and on the dashboard. There is ambient lighting with over 64 hues that can be matched to the music from the premium SONY sound system(10 speakers (power amplifier)), the driving style or the driver’s mood. {please mention 10 speakers (power amplifier)

Add to this a fully digital cockpit with two large 12.3” screens for a large super screen that is 24.7” long. The infotainment section of the screen has full Apple CarPlay and Android Auto (wireless contact) functionality, and it will show a full panoramic view of the vehicle thanks to the 360-degree camera (use upgraded AVM SYSTEM) array.

The flagship Tiggo 8 Pro MAX AWD has a superior air conditioning system with two independent zones and an upgraded air quality sensor (AQS) that ensures that the air is N95 certified clean. In addition, there is a Fragrance System with 3 different scents, Updated Suspension for AWD System with 6 Drive models, and an increase fuel tank (51L to 57L)

A host of other features too long to mention are included in the Tiggo 8 Pro MAX, including a super-fast wireless charger, electric memory seats for the front passengers that are both heated and cooled, multiple Type A and Type C chargers and a large panoramic sunroof.

Lastly, the Tiggo 8 Pro MAX AWD offers a true first-class experience after purchase.

As with all other Chery models, the Tiggo 8 Pro MAX AWD is sold with a comprehensive 7-year / 90 000 km service plan, a 5-year / 150 000 km warranty, a full 10-year / 1-million-kilometre engine warranty (linked to the first owner), Plus 5-year unlimited Km Roadside assistance, and Chery’s range of Value-added Services (My Chery Care). These include free roadside assistance, scratch and dent repair, rim repair, a courtesy Chery when a vehicle is booked for service and even a free take-me-home service.

The new Chery Tiggo 8 Pro MAX AWD is available immediately from Chery dealers across South Africa. It retails for R 731 900, 00.

Chery is a top SUV Brand

Chery is South Africa’s second-largest SUV brand.

The company received this news as the final sales statistics for 2023 were tallied and validated. It shows that Chery sold twice as many vehicles in 2023 as in 2022 and that it is the second-best-selling brand among SUV customers.

“We are very happy with the news that Chery is one of the most popular SUV brands in the country.

“If you consider that Chery only sells SUVs, our doubling of sales and overall ranking is very impressive because we do not sell any commercial vehicles or entry-level cars to bolster our sales numbers,” says Tony Liu, Deputy General Manager of Chery South Africa.

According to the final sales statistics for South African vehicle sales, in 2023, Chery sold a total of 16 110 vehicles. This is a major jump from 2022, when Chery sold an already impressive 8 013 vehicles.

Of the total sales, the Chery Tiggo 4 Pro sold 9,916 vehicles, making it the most popular model range for Chery and one of the overall best-selling passenger vehicles in South Africa. This also means that Tiggo 4 Pro sales more than doubled in one year.

The Tiggo 4 Pro range was expanded in 2023 to include the Tiggo 4 Pro LiT in manual and automatic variants. This model lowered the entry into the Chery family to only R279 900 while retaining the brand’s impressive warranty and service support.

“Our 10-year / 1 000 000 km engine warranty remains unmatched in South Africa. Chery also pioneered the inclusion of value-added services in the sales price, including rim, scratch and dent repair and even a take-me-home service,” says Liu.

Liu is referring to Chery’s decision to include items that a vehicle owner would pay extra for – such as paint protection insurance or protection against rim damage – in the vehicle’s sales price. These features are included under the banner of the Chery Cares package, while a number of extended service plan and warranty options are also available through the Chery Extender Programme.

On the other end of the luxury spectrum, Chery welcomed to new Pro MAX models to the range. The Tiggo 7 Pro MAX and Tiggo 8 Pro MAX takes the luxury and performance specifications of the previous range-topping models and adds even more specification and engine power.

With the addition of these new flagship models and new technology, such as four-wheel drive on the Tiggo 7 Pro MAX, both these SUV ranges also saw their sales numbers jump significantly in 2023.

In 2023, Chery also entered the big leagues as the official presidential vehicle partner of the BRICS Summit and later in the year as the new vehicle partner to the Lions Rugby Company.
During the recent festive season, Chery joined the Lions and Reach For A Dream to deliver gifts and cheer to children with life-threatening illnesses at the Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital’s children’s ward.

This was but one of many social initiatives launched by Chery in 2023. The brand visited children’s homes and family care centres in Johannesburg and Soweto and, on a global scale, partnered with UNICEF to help vulnerable and marginalised children across the globe.

“We hope to announce a new initiative between UNICEF and Chery South Africa soon. This partnership will benefit poor and vulnerable children in South Africa,” says Liu.

To support its rapidly growing car parc, Chery also opened a new parts warehouse in Gauteng. Designed to deliver parts and components to every Chery dealer every day, the new warehouse covers over 7,000 square metres and carries an average of R70 million in parts at any given time.

“With our new parts warehouse, we have been able to achieve an immediate fill rate of 98% and a 99% claim approval rating on our mechanical warranties,” says Liu.

Chery is a top SUV Brand

Chery is South Africa’s second-largest SUV brand.

The company received this news as the final sales statistics for 2023 were tallied and validated. It shows that Chery sold twice as many vehicles in 2023 as in 2022 and that it is the second-best-selling brand among SUV customers.

“We are very happy with the news that Chery is one of the most popular SUV brands in the country.

“If you consider that Chery only sells SUVs, our doubling of sales and overall ranking is very impressive because we do not sell any commercial vehicles or entry-level cars to bolster our sales numbers,” says Tony Liu, Deputy General Manager of Chery South Africa.

According to the final sales statistics for South African vehicle sales, in 2023, Chery sold a total of 16 110 vehicles. This is a major jump from 2022, when Chery sold an already impressive 8 013 vehicles.

Of the total sales, the Chery Tiggo 4 Pro sold 9,916 vehicles, making it the most popular model range for Chery and one of the overall best-selling passenger vehicles in South Africa. This also means that Tiggo 4 Pro sales more than doubled in one year.

The Tiggo 4 Pro range was expanded in 2023 to include the Tiggo 4 Pro LiT in manual and automatic variants. This model lowered the entry into the Chery family to only R279 900 while retaining the brand’s impressive warranty and service support.

“Our 10-year / 1 000 000 km engine warranty remains unmatched in South Africa. Chery also pioneered the inclusion of value-added services in the sales price, including rim, scratch and dent repair and even a take-me-home service,” says Liu.

Liu is referring to Chery’s decision to include items that a vehicle owner would pay extra for – such as paint protection insurance or protection against rim damage – in the vehicle’s sales price. These features are included under the banner of the Chery Cares package, while a number of extended service plan and warranty options are also available through the Chery Extender Programme.

On the other end of the luxury spectrum, Chery welcomed to new Pro MAX models to the range. The Tiggo 7 Pro MAX and Tiggo 8 Pro MAX takes the luxury and performance specifications of the previous range-topping models and adds even more specification and engine power.

With the addition of these new flagship models and new technology, such as four-wheel drive on the Tiggo 7 Pro MAX, both these SUV ranges also saw their sales numbers jump significantly in 2023.

In 2023, Chery also entered the big leagues as the official presidential vehicle partner of the BRICS Summit and later in the year as the new vehicle partner to the Lions Rugby Company.
During the recent festive season, Chery joined the Lions and Reach For A Dream to deliver gifts and cheer to children with life-threatening illnesses at the Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital’s children’s ward.

This was but one of many social initiatives launched by Chery in 2023. The brand visited children’s homes and family care centres in Johannesburg and Soweto and, on a global scale, partnered with UNICEF to help vulnerable and marginalised children across the globe.

“We hope to announce a new initiative between UNICEF and Chery South Africa soon. This partnership will benefit poor and vulnerable children in South Africa,” says Liu.
