9 月 22 日,全新 QQ3 摩登版正式上市,官方指導價 8.89 萬元。作為家族車型的進階版,QQ3 摩登版並非簡單的配置疊加,而是站在全新 QQ3 持續熱銷的市場基石之上,完成產品向上、品牌向上的又一次躍遷。

纵观當下,中國汽車市場正經歷一場結構性分化。A00 級微型代步車市場持續收縮,而 A0 級精品純電轎車卻逆勢增長,成為新能源市場中最具活力的細分賽道之一。消費需求從“有沒有”轉向“好不好”,從“低價代步”轉向“品質悅己”,價值遷移的趨勢愈發清晰。
而全新 QQ3 作為細分市場的現象級產品已交出連續 5 個月銷量破萬、8 月銷量達 19103 輛,環比大漲 64.07% 的成績單,全球待交付訂單更是突破 10 萬輛;海外市場中泰國、印尼預購訂單快速突破 2 萬,實現國內、海外齊升。在行業步入微增長,甚至負增長的當下,這份銷量曲線,不只是一款車型的熱度,更是 QQ 這個國民 IP 穿越燃油、電動兩個時代的產業樣本。

銷量是結果,產品價值才是根基。全新 QQ3 摩登版的上市,正是對這一邏輯的集中詮釋,其不僅是 QQ3 家族的一次版本擴充,更是 QQ 在智能電動時代完成價值重估的關鍵落子。
從代步工具到悅己載體,QQ3 摩登版登場
回顧 QQ 品牌的發展,初代 QQ 完成的使命是讓普通家庭“擁有一台車”,性價比、基礎代步是核心訴求,累計超 160 萬的銷量,遠銷百餘個國家,成為一代人的國民記憶。步入智能電動時代,市場需求已經徹底迭代,當代消費者選購小型電動車,早已跳出“夠用就好”的底層邏輯,安全、駕控、智能、審美表達共同構成購車決策因子。
數據顯示,QQ3 女性用戶佔比達到 56%,大量增購用戶來自中高端家庭,小車正在從“剛需代步”轉向“悅己生活載體”。全新 QQ3 摩登版正是瞄準這部分進階用戶痛點打造的官方完整解決方案。

過去大量車主自发改裝車輛,以此實現復古、個性的風格表達,但第三方改裝往往伴隨合規備案、匹配度、安全隱患等一系列問題,摩登版以原廠量產身份,把用戶的改裝需求標準化、品質化落地。
在美學與質感價值層面,摩登版採用 NeoRetro 復古未來主義設計,拿下四次紅點設計大獎的設計團隊操刀,推出摩登時代、安妮珍珠兩款專屬配色;全包覆同色漆面工藝,搭配時光徽章輪轂、風跡競速拉花、黃金時代格柵、鎏光鍍鉻飾條、復古白前後槓全套專屬外觀套件。
車漆採用關西、PPG 豪車同源 6 層 2K 車漆,實現 10 年抗褪色。座艙完成大幅度升級:雲絨米內飾、千鳥格高定紋理飾板、撞色織帶,頂棚、A/B 柱、遮陽板全部升級天鵝絨包覆,把高定質感下放到小型純電座艙,解決傳統小車內飾廉價感痛點。
顏值升級的同時,硬件底盤與安全價值也沒有妥協。磐石五縱八橫籠式車身,高強度鋼佔比 82%、熱成型鋼佔比 16%,搭載 1300MPa 一體式熱成型門環;犀牛電池搭載寧德時代電芯,IP68 防水,通過中汽中心六維電安全認證,標準配備 6 安全氣囊、AEB 主動煞車、BSD 盲區監測全套主動安全配置。原生純電平台加持後置後驅、四輪獨立懸架、50:50 前後軸荷比,5.2 米轉彎半徑,十合一集成電驅等配置,真正做到"顏值升級,底盤安全不降級”。

智能化層面,高通 8155 車規芯片、15.6 英寸 2.5K 中控屏、Carmind AI 智能體;70L 智能電動前備箱,支援 8 種開啟方式,車外語音控制前後備箱、車外喊話、四大 1/4 生態螺紋接口、雙柔光化妝鏡,疊加小憩、寶寶、寵物、K 歌、哨兵、露營六大智能場景;配合持續 OTA 迭代,不斷解鎖全新功能,構建起工具、情緒、場景三位一體的產品價值。
可以看出,QQ3 摩登版的產品邏輯清晰可見:基礎版守住大眾化代步市場,摩登版承接追求質感、個性表達的悅己用戶,實現同車型內部的價值分層,擴大目標客群池,拉動整體大盤銷量上限。
價值紅利雙向釋放,全球化輸出中國小車標準
小型純電市場正在迎來分化:一部分車型持續內卷價格,不斷削減底盤、安全、內飾用料換取低價;另一部分向上衝擊高端,但定價過高難以實現規模走量。全新 QQ3 便走出一條差異化路徑:以紮實的底層硬件為基座,通過版本迭代實現價值分層,同時依托全球驗證體系,把國內打磨完成的產品價值向外輸出,形成國內基本盤 + 海外增量的雙輪驅動。

在國內市場,摩登版承擔價值錨點的角色。其並非脫離用戶,而是把用戶真實改裝需求轉化為原廠量產產品,既降低用戶自行改裝的時間成本、合規風險,又把天鵝絨內飾、全套復古外觀套件、高定座艙細節等升級配置標準化交付。基礎版本負責覆蓋大眾代步需求,摩登版瞄準悅己、潮流、增購用戶,二者形成互補,拓寬價格帶寬,讓 QQ3 能夠覆蓋更寬泛的消費圈層。從市場反饋來看,大量車主熱愛於改裝、露營、寵物出行、社交打卡,摩登版的全部升級點,精準對應這些真實用車場景,把“好看”和“好用”融為一體,完成從參數配置到真實場景體驗的轉化。
海外市場則是這套產品價值的第二釋放出口。全新 QQ3 在上市之前完成覆蓋 9 大區域、44 個國家,超 300 萬公里整車驗證,上千項虛擬與台架測試,建立完整的全球品質體系。東南亞城市通勤場景,與 QQ3 靈巧車身、完善智能配置、可靠安全體系高度契合,泰國、印尼預訂單快速突破 2 萬,印證海外市場對於中國精品小車的認可。
不同於過去中國小車出海單純輸出低價產品,全新 QQ3 輸出的是一整套完整產品價值:高規格底盤結構、完整安全標準、智能化座艙、可拓展的生活場景能力。摩登版這套 NeoRetro 復古摩登的設計語言、原廠個性方案,同樣具備全球市場適配潛力,為後續海外產品矩陣豐富提供樣本。國內打磨產品價值,反哺海外市場放量;海外市場的驗證,反過來迭代國內產品,國內海外雙向賦能,對沖單一市場週期波動,支撐銷量長期穩定增長。

總的來看,從國民小車到全球單品,全新 QQ3 摩登版的上市,不僅是一次產品版本的擴充,更是 QQ 品牌價值重估的集中體現。在 A0 級市場從價格競爭轉向價值競爭的轉折點上,摩登版以設計、安全、智能、駕控和場景體驗構建起差異化壁壘,讓銷量增長有了紮實的產品根基。連續 5 個月銷量過萬、海內外訂單突破 10 萬,是市場對產品價值的真實投票。隨著摩登版逐步交付和 OTA 持續迭代,全新 QQ3 也有望在精品純電小車賽道中,從一款熱銷車型成長為全球經典單品。

9 月 22 日,全新 QQ3 摩登版喺蕪湖上市。官方指導價 8.39 萬元起。一部 8 萬級嘅純電小車,放喺 2026 年嘅中國車市,本身就係一個「唔太合時宜」嘅存在。

過去半年,微型電動車市場經歷一場雪崩。2026 年 1 至 5 月,A00 級轎車累計銷量 19.2 萬輛,同比下滑 64%,市場份額從去年同期嘅 6% 跌至 2.7%。曾經月銷 6 萬輛嘅五菱宏光 MINIEV,而家多月徘徊喺 1 萬輛出頭。8 月整個微型轎車市場累計零售銷量僅 3.2 萬輛,全細分類市場僅有一款車款銷量過萬。多款曾經月銷破萬嘅代步小車,而家月銷跌至三位數甚至兩位數。
喺呢個背景下睇全新 QQ3 嘅銷量,反差就出嚟。
8 月,全新 QQ3 銷量 19103 輛,環比增長 64.07%。其中,國內銷量 13911 輛,海外銷量 5192 輛。連續 5 個月銷量過萬,上市至今海内外訂單突破 10 萬輛。
喺 A0 級純電小車市場,呢個成績單放埋一齊睇更有意思。8 月 A0 級轎車批發銷量排名中,吉利星願 60955 輛,比亞迪海鷗 36106 輛,比亞迪海豚 29147 輛,五菱繽果 Pro 22608 輛,QQ3 EV 19103 輛。QQ3 EV 排第五,前面四位,冇一個係好惹嘅角色。
更值得注意係,海外市場嘅銷量幾近佔咗總量嘅三分之一。泰國、印尼預售後累計訂單量快速突破 2 萬,覆蓋全球 100 多個國家同地區。呢個唔係「順便出口」嘅量,係實打實嘅海外需求。喺東南亞市場,日系品牌統治咗幾十年,中國小車能喺呢個市場站穩腳跟,本身就係一件值得琢磨嘅事。
逆市增長嘅三條途徑
點解喺一個退潮嘅市場裏,全新 QQ3 仲可以漲?

第一條途徑係「產品定義嘅向上行」。全新 QQ3 冇把自己定義成「代步工具」,而係「精品小車」。2700mm 軸距,70L 智能電動前備箱,375L 到 1450L 可拓展後備箱空間,高通驍龍 8155 晶片,15.6 吋 2.5K 中控屏,全品牌手機互聯。呢啲配置放喺 A0 級市場裏,唔係「堆料」,係「齊備」。過去 A0 級小車嘅通病係「夠用就得」,但用戶已經唔滿足於「夠用」咗。消費者正喺從「夠用就好」嘅微型代步車,向空間更大、續航更長、配置更豐富嘅 A0 級車款遷移。QQ3 踩嘅正係呢個節奏。
第二條途徑係「智能化體驗嘅持續迭代」。8 月,全新 QQ3 啟動咗上市以來首次重大 OTA 升級,新增聲紋車外語音控車、自動泊出、540°全景 AVM 雨夜模式、寶寶模式、哨兵模式、K 歌模式等功能。OTA 呢件事,喺 10 萬級以下市場好少畀人認真對待。好多品牌把 OTA 當成「高配專屬」或者「期貨承諾」。全新 QQ3 嘅做法係「常用常新」,買車唔係體驗嘅終點,係起點。

第三條途徑係「全球化驗證帶來嘅品質溢價」。全新 QQ3 喺走向世界市場前,完成咗覆蓋 9 大區域、44 個國家嘅全球路試,單車測試最長里程達到 30 萬公里以上,經歷 1000 多項虛擬驗證、2000 多項合規驗證、超 300 萬公里整車驗證。磐石車身,82% 高強度鋼,寧德時代電芯,六維電安全認證。呢啲驗證數據翻譯成用戶語言就係一句說話:呢台車唔止喺中國能夠開,放喺泰國雨季、印尼山路、中東高溫裏,一樣能夠開。
摩登版要回答嘅問題
回到摩登版。
作為 QQ3 車系嘅官方改裝版本,摩登版承載住一個特殊任務:喺銷量基盤穩定嘅前提下,向更高嘅個性化需求延伸。
佢用咗一套叫「Neo Retro」嘅設計語言。全包覆同色漆面,時光徽章輪轂,風跡競速拉花,黃金時代格柵,復古白前後槓。內飾用雲絨米配色,千鳥格高定紋理,天鵝絨頂棚。專屬配色「摩登時代」以復古綠呈現膠片電影般嘅顆粒質感,「安妮珍珠」就喺奶杏與珍珠光澤之間營造溫潤質感。6 層 2K 高質感車漆,老化光澤損失控制在 5% 以內,遠低於行業 20% 嘅標準。

呢套設計嘅價值,唔喺佢堆咗幾多「高級材料」,而係佢完成咗一個完整嘅設計敘事,從外觀到內飾,從配色到細節,每一項元素都喺回答同一個問題:一部 8 萬級嘅小車,點能夠擁有屬於自己嘅審美體系。全新 QQ3 已經連續四次獲得紅點設計大獎,覆蓋概念、產品、品牌與傳達設計領域。其中,QQ3 獲「2026 紅點產品設計獎」,其智能座艙交互介面獲「2026 紅點品牌與傳達設計獎」。
改裝呢件事,喺 QQ3 嘅用戶群體裏本身就係一種文化。發布會上展出咗國風小車、加州假日、貓貓車、手繪車、城市遊獵、戶外山旅六台改裝車。從粉絲文化到寵物陪伴,從海岸度假到戶外探索,六台車對應六種生活方式。摩登版做嘅嘢,係把「改裝」由後市場嘅生意變成原廠嘅選項——官方版本滿足用戶對「唔同」嘅需求,同時降低咗自行改裝可能帶來嘅品質、適配同審美風險。
寫喺最後

QQ 品牌累計銷量已經超過 160 萬輛,暢銷海內外 100 多個國家同地區。從 2003 年嘅國民小車,到 2026 年嘅精品純電小車,QQ 呢個 IP 用廿幾多年時間完成咗一次代際傳承。
全新 QQ3 摩登版嘅上市,唔係一次孤立嘅產品發布。佢站喺一個連續 5 個月銷量過萬、訂單突破 10 萬、海外銷量佔比接近三成嘅基盤上。喺一個整體萎縮嘅市場裏,佢做到咗逆市增長。喺一個低價競爭為主嘅賽道裏,佢揀選咗向上行。
退潮嘅時候,先至知邊個喺裸泳。全新 QQ3 畀出嘅答案好簡單:唔靠低價撐銷量,靠品質同體驗留住用戶。摩登版係呢套邏輯嘅延續,亦係 QQ 品牌喺智能電動時代重新定義「精品小車」嘅一次表態。

On August 12, the globally quality pure electric SUV Fengyun T7 officially started pre-sale. The new car launches 3 versions, with a pre-sale guide price from 109,900 Yuan to 129,900 Yuan. This pre-sale launch event is themed "Slow craftsmanship builds good cars, you have waited long enough", conveying Fengyun T7's car-making philosophy of adhering to long-termism.

Based on Chery's 23 years of global technology accumulation, Fengyun T7 has walked a reverse overseas trial path — the same-source model LEPAS L6 has been launched in overseas markets such as Thailand and South Africa. Polished with full-link global strict standards to hone vehicle strength, it downgrades high-end intelligent driving configurations such as multi-floor memory parking to the 100,000-level home SUV market, truly realizing all-scenario parking freedom.
Parking Freedom Starts with the "Chip"
Fengyun T7 breaks industry conventions, directly downgrading multi-floor memory parking, originally standard only on high-end pure electric models above 200,000 yuan, to the 100,000-level home SUV. The full series is equipped with the Falcon 500 driving assistance system, integrating 3 mm-wave radars, 7 high-performance cameras, and 12 ultrasonic radars, totaling 22 high-precision sensors.

Multi-floor memory parking has no floor limits, supporting up to 2km memory parking; 300+ all-scenario automatic parking covers dead-end road parking, irregular parking spaces, one-touch track reversing and other scenarios. Newbies aren't panicked when parking narrow spaces, experienced drivers are more calm encountering irregular spaces, truly saying goodbye to "parking difficulty".
Fengyun T7 is equipped with a cockpit-drive integrated 8775 chip, adopting 4nm process technology. NPU computing power reaches 72TOPS, response latency is as low as 80ms, boot speed increased by 33%. The chip achieves dual optimization for cockpit and drive, two domains seamless collaboration, half understanding you, half protecting you.

In terms of smart cockpit, the 15.6-inch 2.5K HD large screen is paired with 1000nit high brightness and 3A protective coating, delivering delicate and realistic visuals with anti-glare, anti-reflective, and anti-fingerprint properties. Lingxi Smart Cockpit 2.0 is equipped with the Doubao large model, integrating six human-like companion experiences: Little Qi Classmate, Northeast Auntie, Contrarian Master, Oral English Teacher, Story King, and Professional Debater.
Built-in 6 scene modes such as Nap, Camping, Pet, Wake-up, etc., one-key switch exclusive scene settings. Full-brand mobile phone direct connection supports CarPlay, HiCar, CarLink wireless connection, covering 99% or more mobile screen mirroring on the market.

More worth mentioning, Fengyun T7 launches assistance driving safety net rights: within one year from the date of purchase, in "Parking Scenario" and "Intelligent Pilot Scenario", if the accident is determined to be caused by the intelligent driving assistance system, causing injury to vehicle occupants and compensation for third-party losses, the maximum compensation guarantee is 5 million Yuan. Dare to make such a promise stems from the brand's full confidence in self-developed intelligent driving technology, allowing users to truly dare to use, feel safe, and have assurance.
Global Quality Endorsement, 6 Major Needs Fully Satisfied
Fengyun T7's R&D cycle took five years, with two years for planning and three years for development. A total of 81 exclusive durability test cars were launched for synchronous road testing, with cumulative vehicle test mileage exceeding 6 million kilometers. In terms of safety, it benchmarks the 2026 version E-NCAP 5-star standard design, functional safety reaches the ASILD highest level. The body adopts 80% high-strength steel and 18.84% hot-formed steel to create a 9-transverse 5-longitudinal cage body, equipped with 9 airbags, including 48L dual-chamber remote airbags and rear side airbags.

In terms of aesthetics, relying on Chery's 10 global design centers and 5000+ domestic and foreign users for full-process co-creation, the wind-riding front face, wind-shaped satin body, and skyline glow tailgate blend global aesthetics. It provides 6 colors: Blazing Orange, Mountain Smoke Purple, Cloud Pink Beige, Flowing Light Silver, Bamboo Green Grey, and Ink Stone Black. The interior is divided into Warm Black-Brown and Extreme Night Obsidian two styles. The cloud-wing embrace cockpit is paired with a large area of soft wrapping, pebble floating speakers, and diamond quilted details are exquisite.
In terms of peace of mind, two lifetime rights and two safety net guarantees are launched. Vehicle lifetime warranty includes the 3-electric systems; 666 Yuan can purchase a 3999 Yuan lifetime basic maintenance package. Power battery safety guarantee: If thermal runaway destruction is caused by the battery itself, compensate with a same-model new car.
Conclusion
In the 100,000-level pure electric SUV market, most models' intelligent driving configurations still remain at the basic single-floor parking level. The appearance of Fengyun T7 allows high-order functions such as multi-floor memory parking and 300+ all-scenario automatic parking, which originally existed only on models above 200,000 yuan, to truly enter ordinary households. Behind this is the significant long-term accumulation of Chery's 23 years of global technology leading to a breakthrough — five years of R&D cycle, over 6 million kilometers of test mileage, global multi-region limit verification, every bit of "slow craftsmanship" precipitates into the reliable quality of the product.

In 2026, the story of Chinese cars going global turns a new page. Under the spotlight of the Bangkok International Motor Show in Thailand, amidst the crowds at the Indonesia GIIAS Motor Show, a pure electric compact car named "Chery Q" is refreshing external perceptions of Chinese brand premium compact cars with market performance exceeding expectations.

Boom in Dual Markets, An "Unprecedented" Hot Sales Phenomenon That Was No Accident
Global debut at the March Bangkok Motor Show, orders exceeded 1,000 vehicles within just ten days; the official price was announced on June 24 (449,900 THB - 519,900 THB), cumulative orders have strongly exceeded 3,000 vehicles. In July, the first batch of over 2,000 Chery Q vehicles arrived in Thailand from China, launching deliveries.
Almost at the same time, the Indonesia market opened pre-orders on May 18, officially launched sales at the GIIAS Motor Show on July 31 (239.9 million - 264.9 million Indonesian Rupiah), orders have exceeded 6,000 units. Chery Thailand General Manager Jim Lee stated plainly at the launch event: "Chery QQ has accompanied Thai users for 20 years; this is our greatest confidence in deeply cultivating the local market."

This is not an accidental boom in a single market, but a validation of the systemic competitiveness of Chinese premium compact cars in the Southeast Asian market. More notably, the all-new QQ3 also exceeded 56,000 units in orders in its first month of launch domestically—from Wuhu to Bangkok, from Chengdu to Jakarta, a compact car exploding simultaneously in multiple markets is rare in the history of Chinese cars going global.
20 Years of Nostalgia Return, From "National Compact Car" to "Global ICON"
In 2006, the old QQ model drove into the streets of Thailand and Indonesia, becoming the youth memory for a generation of Southeast Asians. In 2026, the all-new QQ3 returns under the name Chery Q. In 20 years, it has completed the brand leap from "National Commuter Car" to "Global Premium Compact Car".
The power of this nostalgia is clearly visible in the order structure—62% of orders in the Thailand market are from female users, with many young people spontaneously checking in and sharing on Facebook, Instagram; the Indonesia market attracted many middle-aged family users to pre-order due to "nostalgia". A single car moving two generations relies on more than just nostalgia.

The all-new QQ3 is not simply a "reprint of classics". It was designed by the first domestic team to win both Red Dot design awards. The 2025 all-new QQ concept car swept the Red Dot Concept Design Award and the Red Dot Brand and Communication Design Award, becoming the first Chinese fashion EV to win both Red Dot awards in the same year. In April 2026, the mass-produced all-new QQ3 won the Red Dot Product Design Award again; in July, its smart cockpit HMI interface won the Red Dot Brand and Communication Design Award. From concept to mass production, from styling to smart cockpit, the four Red Dot trophies fully showcase Chery Design's full-link capability from creative implementation to whole vehicle mass production.
Global Same Standards, No Downgraded Specs, No Special Supplies
In past narratives of going global, "overseas special edition" often meant downsized configurations. The all-new QQ3 breaks this convention.
Chery Automobile Vice President Zhang Hongyu explicitly stated: "From chassis architecture, battery safety to body structure, we adapt to Southeast Asian right-hand drive regulations simultaneously, undergoing rigorous testing in multiple global regions, without downsizing specs or making special supplies." Chery Indonesia General Manager Assistant Zeng Shuo also emphasized: "At Chery Indonesia, quality is always prioritized over profit."
This commitment to the product manifests as the complete presentation of class-leading configurations ("Top 10 Unique in Class, Top 13 Leading in Class") in the overseas market. The 2700mm ultra-long wheelbase brings a B-class space experience with 85% space utilization efficiency; 82% high-strength steel ratio, 1300MPa integrated hot-formed door rings build a rock-solid body; IP68 highest waterproof level Rhino Battery, tailor-made for the Southeast Asian rainy season; the Lingxi Cockpit composed of Qualcomm 8155 chip and 15.6-inch 2.5K ultra-HD center control screen, equipped with Carmind large model supporting AI natural language chatting.
Thailand's rainy season flooding, Indonesia's tropical heat, Bangkok's narrow streets—these localization challenges were not avoided by "downgrading specs", but were addressed one by one through engineering means such as right-hand drive tuning, battery waterproofing enhancement, and high-temperature heat dissipation optimization.
"The World's Three Little Ones", New Coordinates for Chinese Automotive Culture
The all-new QQ3 proposed an ambitious positioning: to jointly build the "World's Three Little Ones" global compact car culture pattern with German SMART and British MINI.
This is not a simple brand benchmarking. MINI has over sixty years of brand accumulation, SMART has Mercedes-Benz technical endorsement, and QQ accumulated 1.5 million global users in 23 years. The common point among the three is having long brand accumulation, and all have undergone electrification rebirth. The arrival of the all-new QQ3 is a key leap for Chinese compact cars from functional inclusiveness to value leadership, from local deep cultivation to global breakthrough.
Thai authoritative automotive media Autolife Thailand believes Chery Q has strong competitiveness in the 500,000 THB price range; Indonesian automotive media OtoDriver evaluated it as "with more comprehensive product power, becoming the most direct competitor of products in the same class". Professional media recognition proves that "The World's Three Little Ones" is not a castle in the air—it won the market's genuine financial vote with global unified quality and class-leading product power.

From the 2003 first-generation QQ knocking open the door of Chinese family travel with 39,800 yuan, to the 2026 all-new QQ3 conquering Southeast Asia in the posture of a "complete solution"; from the "enough is good" national commuter car to the global premium compact car competing on the same stage with SMART, MINI—QQ's transformation is a vivid footnote of Chinese automobiles going from product export to brand export, from technology export to cultural export.

In Malaysia's SUV market, many buyers compare Proton X90 and Chery Tiggo Cross when choosing a car. These two cars are quite close in price and positioning. Today, we will make a detailed comparison from multiple aspects to help you save time on research.
Proton X90's OTR price in Malaysia is RM 106,800 - 122,800, totaling 4 variants, including 2026 1.5T Prime X (RM 122,800), 2026 1.5T Prime (RM 116,800), 2026 1.5T Lite (RM 106,800), etc.
Chery Tiggo Cross's OTR price in Malaysia is RM 88,750 - 99,750, totaling 2 variants, including 2025 HEV 1.5L CSH (RM 99,750), 2025 1.5T Standard (RM 88,750), etc.
In terms of price, Chery Tiggo Cross's starting price is RM 18,050 cheaper than Proton X90. To be honest, in this price range, a difference of a few thousand is actually not significant; the key is looking at overall value for money and long-term usage costs.
Proton X90 is equipped with 1.5L Turbo, 140 hp. Official fuel consumption 7.0 L/100km.
Chery Tiggo Cross is equipped with 1.5L 4-cyl, 105 hp. Official fuel consumption 6.0 L/100km.
In terms of power, Proton X90's 1.5L Turbo has 35 more horsepower than Chery Tiggo Cross's 1.5L 4-cyl, with more confidence in mid-range acceleration, especially when overtaking on highways. However, Chery Tiggo Cross's fuel consumption might be friendlier, and the difference in daily city commuting won't be too large.
Proton X90's safety rating is 5★ (ASEAN NCAP), active safety systems include ADAS (ACC, AEB, LKA, LDA, BSM, RCTA).
Chery Tiggo Cross's safety rating is TBD, active safety systems include Basic.
Regarding safety features, both cars have received good ratings. However, Proton X90's ADAS (ACC, AEB, LKA, LDA, BSM, RCTA) and Chery Tiggo Cross's Basic have some differences in functionality. If you value active safety, you can compare the function lists of both carefully.
Proton X90 adopts FWD drive mode.
Chery Tiggo Cross adopts FWD drive mode.
Both cars have the same drive mode, both are FWD, so there won't be much difference in daily driving experience.
Overall, Proton X90 and Chery Tiggo Cross are both excellent models in the Malaysian market. Which one to choose depends on your personal needs and budget. It is recommended to do your research, compare quotes from multiple car dealers, and then test drive to make the final decision. Buying a car is a big matter, spending some time on research will never be wrong.

China's auto exports in 2026 are still surging ahead. Monthly exports broke the 1 million mark for the first time, with cumulative exports in the first half exceeding 5.3 million vehicles, a year-on-year growth rate of over 50%. The position of the world's top export nation is becoming increasingly secure.
Behind the dazzling growth figures, a discussion about "when exports will peak" is quietly heating up within the industry chain.
Gu Huai (all names in this article are pseudonyms), who just returned from touring overseas markets, is an insider at a Chinese Tier 1 supplier that began its overseas layout relatively early. In his view, the node for export ceilings is likely to occur in 2029, corresponding to a peak scale of about 12 million vehicles.
This is not just one company's opinion. At a salon event held recently by the Gasgoo Auto Research Institute, several industry insiders from the automotive industry chain converged on the peak window pointing to 2028-2030. As for the peak scale, industry predictions range from 12 million to 15 million vehicles. The core of the disagreement lies in the timing of tightening trade barriers and the speed of overseas capacity implementation.

Growth still surging, peak zone emerging
If we rewind time to two years ago, industry predictions on the export peak were earlier.
The logic back then was very clear: overseas factories of leading automakers would concentrate production in 2025-2026, whole vehicle exports would be quickly replaced by localized capacity, and the growth curve would flatten quickly. However, the endurance of exports far exceeded industry expectations. The "ceiling" considered at that time to be about to be touched has now been overturned by actual data that broke through continuously.
According to data from the General Administration of Customs organized by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, China's passenger vehicle exports in January-June 2026 reached 5.307 million vehicles, with year-on-year growth of 52.8%. The export volume for January-July counted by the China Passenger Car Association has reached 6.4 million units, with year-on-year growth of 54%. Extrapolating based on the current pace, breaking through 10 million vehicles for the whole year is almost without suspense.
In front of these scalding data figures, the industry also has more realistic judgments on the point when exports will hit the peak.
Chen Mo, an insider at a global cabin electronics Tier 1 supplier, frankly admitted, "Previously we judged that this year or next year would be the export peak, after all overseas factories have successively started localized production. But now looking at it, this time node needs to be pushed back."
In his view, the resilience of exports comes from a diversified market layout. Leading domestic automakers are expanding simultaneously in Southeast Asia, South America, and Europe. The growth rhythms of different regions are staggered, supporting the overall export scale. "In the future, it won't surge like before, but is likely to remain stable, possibly even a slight decline, with no cliff-like drop."
Similar judgments are not uncommon within the industry chain, just that different enterprises have different observation dimensions.
Jiang Yu, an insider at a domestic automotive semiconductor manufacturer, believes that exports will continue to grow in two to three years, until exports touch around 15 million vehicles, will encounter the true bottleneck. This means China's share of the global automotive market will climb to a higher level, necessarily triggering more intensive trade protection measures.
Lu Ming, head of overseas business at a leading domestic automotive interior and exterior enterprise, values the rhythm of the capacity cycle more. In his observation, Chinese automakers' overseas capacity will be gradually implemented and released in 2027, 2028. Exports won't brake immediately, rather, it will continue to walk along with the capacity ramp-up. The true balance state between exports and overseas capacity will likely appear between 2028 and 2029.
Zhou Yan, head of overseas business at a global automotive parts giant, provided more granular inflection point judgments from observing the supply chain frontlines: Looking at different metrics, pure CBU vehicle exports will likely welcome a scale inflection point in 2028, with export volume seeing a substantive decline. If KD kits are included in the full statistics, data fluctuations will be relatively flat, but the downward trend of pure vehicle exports is quite clear.
Tian Tao, an analyst at a consulting institution in the automotive industry, stated that geopolitics, tariff policies, and localized capacity superimpose three factors, and the export ceiling will likely fall around 2030.

Of course, all these industry insiders emphasize: export ceiling does not equal the overseas sales peak of Chinese automakers.
Su Wan, head of overseas business expansion for intelligent cabins at a parts enterprise, said very clearly, "The momentum of exports rushing towards 10 million vehicles this year is indeed astonishing, and in the next few years, export volume will likely enter a bottleneck period, stabilizing growth and no longer skyrocketing. But if sales from localized production are included, the overall scale will still steadily rise. Exports have an upper limit, but the globalization of Chinese automakers has no upper limit. This is not the same thing at all."
Zhao Kai, head of enterprise development at a German automotive parts supplier, also confirmed this from industrial logic. In his view, new energy vehicles becoming the export main force itself extends the growth cycle. The battery technology iteration behind electric vehicles formed a synergy with national energy storage strategies, making China's automotive industrial advantages more solid than in the fuel vehicle era, and the resilience of export growth also far exceeds initial industry expectations.
Barriers and Capacity, Two Major Reality Constraints
Although the momentum of growth is fierce, no one believes exports will always rise. Two ceilings hanging above exports are slowly pressing down. One is the trade policy barrier being built higher and higher, the other is the localized capacity replacement proactively pushed by automakers.
Europe is the market that felt the chill first.
EU anti-subsidy tariffs targeting Chinese pure electric vehicles have taken effect. Multiple domestic automakers apply to different additional tax rates. After adding basic tariffs, comprehensive tariff costs for some brands have risen significantly, valid for as long as several years. This is just the first gate, and more systematic rule reshaping is on the way.
Lin Zhou, an insider at a Spanish-backed joint venture parts enterprise, revealed that the 'Industrial Accelerator Act' the EU is pushing is currently still in the legislative draft stage. According to general extrapolations by industry institutions, the bill is expected to complete legislation in 2027. Constraint clauses related to automobiles will land successively after the bill takes effect, and the overall time window is concentrated in 2027-2028. Final progress still depends on negotiation progress between the European Parliament and Council.
The core logic of the bill is very straightforward: through localized content requirements, public procurement restrictions, investment review means, it aims to protect and support the European local automotive industry.
"2026 is a key node," Lin Zhou added. The head new energy brand's Hungary factory officially operated this year, but carbon emission qualification accounting will land in 2027. The EU will introduce third-party audit agencies to check 2026 data and calculate final carbon emission indicators. And this indicator is tightening year by year; if standards are not met, additional tariffs must be levied. Besides the EU-level unified bill, individual member states are also issuing local policies, explicitly and implicitly guiding Chinese automakers to invest and build factories locally. Essentially, all are using rules to force localization.
Fang Cheng, an insider at a domestic automotive electronics enterprise, spoke even more directly: "We are not just going to earn Europeans' money, but also reconstructing the local industrial landscape. For European players guarding century-old industrial foundations, earning money can be tolerated, but having rice bowls snatched and tracks changed by latecomers equates to slapping in public. Resistance will only get more intense. Trade protection is not a question of whether it will come; it has already come, and it will increase more."
In his view, relying on high-speed growth of whole vehicle exports is naturally unsustainable, will soon touch the policy red line, and localization is the core path to break the situation.
More fundamental than policy barriers is the localization route chosen proactively by automakers. When export scale reaches a certain level, coupled with the rise of tariff costs, building factories locally for production became the inevitable choice.
Currently, overseas factories of leading automakers have already entered the concentrated production launch period.
BYD's Hungary Szeged factory will start whole vehicle assembly in the fourth quarter of 2026. Its Thailand Rayong, Brazil Camacari two factories have already achieved mass production, and capacity is still continuously ramping up. Chery's Spain Barcelona joint venture factory, Malaysia Intelligent Auto Industrial Park, and South Africa Rosslyn factory will all be put into production successively in 2027. SAIC MG's European production base located in Port Ferrol, Spain is planned to officially start operations at the end of 2028.

In the industry's view, whole vehicle exports were originally a transitional stage of overseas layout. Once the costs and efficiency of local factories are worked out, combined with the consideration of tariff and logistics costs, the priority of whole vehicle exports will naturally gradually decline.
Lu Ming's viewpoint also confirms this logic: The process of overseas capacity landing and release is the process of exports being gradually replaced. In the initial phase of capacity ramp-up, it may still need to export some parts or whole vehicles to supplement market gaps. After capacity is fully released, the incremental space for exports will be greatly compressed.
But this replacement is not a zero-sum game. Su Wan repeatedly emphasized: Exports and localized production are not a replacement relationship of mutual exclusion; it is a baton-passing progressive relationship. Exports are responsible for quickly opening markets and building brand awareness, localization is responsible for reducing costs and digging deep into user markets, both together expanding the overseas basic board of Chinese automakers.
Exports are not the destination, Going overseas heads to deep waters
When whole vehicle export growth gradually hits the top, China Auto's globalization layout will also synchronously enter the real deep waters.
As Jiang Yu said, when whole vehicle export scale approaches 15 million vehicles level, resistance for further growth will significantly increase. This is not a decline in Chinese automakers' competitiveness, but overseas localized capacity entering a concentrated release period, gradually replacing whole vehicle exports. On the surface, export number growth slows down, but Chinese automakers' global market share is still rising, it is just that the growth carrier has shifted from "whole vehicle exports" to "local manufacturing".
This is also the consensus of all industry chain personnel: The next stage of Chinese auto going overseas is shifting from "selling products" to "outputting industry". Going out with the vehicle factories is not just cars, but also the whole supply chain system.
Gu Huai's overseas survey confirms this trend. He summarized three mainstream models of current automakers going overseas: One is pure whole vehicle exports to fight the market; Two is cooperating with local factories to produce and reduce costs; Three is building factories and ecosystems solely like leading new energy brands. In the process of the three models blending promotion, parts, glass, chips, electronics systems and other supply chain links will also gradually complete localization along with them.
"At normal pace, around 2028, Chinese automakers' overseas industrial layout will be able to reach a relatively large scale. Not just selling cars over there, but moving the whole industrial ecosystem over there," Gu Huai said.
Tier 1 suppliers have already walked ahead. Multiple global parts enterprises are adjusting global capacity layouts, fully cooperating with the overseas rhythm of Chinese mainstream OEMs. Su Wan revealed that factories of the enterprise where he is located around the world are docking with Chinese automakers' overseas projects. Following the customer's factory building rhythm, synchronously landing capacity, from cabin systems to interior modules, are all rapidly promoting localization support capabilities.
The pace of local supply chain going overseas is also accelerating. Fang Cheng revealed that as a chip manufacturer, the company is planning to go overseas with the OEM, partner with domestic parts enterprises, and jointly achieve overseas localized production. "Automaker going overseas is never fighting alone; it must be the whole industry chain going out together to truly take root."

Of course, challenges are far more than imagined. Moving factories over does not guarantee localization success.
Shen Yan, an insider at an Italian enterprise, reminded that what Chinese brands forbid most is directly moving domestic tactics overseas. European market consumers' sensitivity to vehicle long-term value retention, brand reputation and terminal service is far higher than short-term price. If only relying on price wars, rapid model iteration, without valuing core user maintenance and service system construction, even if completing local factory building, it is also very difficult to truly stand firm in mature markets.
"2028 to 2030, export growth will gradually slow down, but won't immediately hit the ceiling. The real test has never been how much export volume rushes to, but whether China's new energy brands can truly stand in European mature markets," Shen Yan emphasized. Relying on B-side low price volume mode doesn't work in Europe; taking quality route and doing terminal service well is the key to long-term survival.
Zhou Yan suggested that there is no need to fix eyes only on Europe. South America, Africa and other regions' automotive consumption is still in rising period, trade environment is also more friendly, will be a new growth point continuously upwards. Dispersing market layout is itself the best way to hedge single market policy risks.
Zheng Ze, an insider at a German capital parts enterprise, then gave judgment from a more macro perspective: China Auto's product competitiveness is already strong enough. The one truly deciding ceiling height has never been the product itself, but national strategy and industrial discourse power. Whether can break trade barriers, strive for more fair market environment, is the core variable deciding China Auto globalization upper limit.
From a longer term industrial cycle perspective, the peak of China Auto exports is essentially a switch of growth mode. In the past few years, we relied on whole vehicle export's high growth to take the position of the world's top export nation. Next, we will through localization's deep layout, gradually strive for global automotive industry's discourse power.
Under the ceiling of export numbers is a wider globalization space.

These three letters, according to Wang Chuanfu, were originally picked at random, selecting an unregistered name, and later, meaning "Build Your Dreams" was given to it, but in the eyes of overseas competitors, BYD might mean: Be Your Daddy.

This sounds like a joke, but looking at the sales data for July, you will find this might be true.
In July, BYD's total sales reached 419,211 vehicles, with overseas sales hitting 179,841 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 124.3%, setting a new historical record. From January to July, cumulative exports totaled 969,000 vehicles, up 78.4% year-on-year. With this momentum, August will see the milestone of overseas sales surpassing one million vehicles.
In the first half of the year, BYD's cumulative overseas sales were 789,367 vehicles, a 68% year-on-year increase, accounting for about 43.6% of total sales. For every 10 cars sold, more than 4 are sold to overseas consumers.

Australia is one of BYD's most outstanding overseas markets.
In the first half of 2026, BYD cumulatively delivered 52,335 vehicles in Australia, up 124% year-on-year. In June alone, 18,881 vehicles were delivered, up 131.5% year-on-year, falling just 243 units short of Toyota. This marked BYD's third consecutive month ranking second in Australian brand sales, trailing the Toyota brand which has dominated the list for 20 years.
The electric vehicle segment is even more striking—BYD delivered 29,192 electric vehicles in the first half of the year, up 241.2% year-on-year, capturing a 28.1% market share, officially replacing Tesla to become the best-selling electric vehicle brand in Australia. Tesla delivered 23,588 vehicles in the first half, holding a 22.3% share.
In June, pure electric vehicles accounted for 23.3% of total new car sales in Australia, while the same period last year was only 7.6%, with the market share nearly tripling within six months. BYD is the biggest beneficiary of this explosive growth.
BYD officially entered the UK market in March 2023. In just over three years, cumulative sales have surpassed 100,000 vehicles.
In the first four months of 2026, BYD sold 26,396 new energy vehicles in the UK, up 124% year-on-year, with a market share exceeding 7%, officially surpassing BMW, Tesla, and Volkswagen to become the largest EV brand in the UK. BYD is also the fastest brand in the history of the UK automotive market to reach a 5% market share.
From initially only having the ATTO 3 model, it has now expanded to 10 models; from 5 dealership outlets, expanded to 143 — in three years, BYD in the UK completed the leap from 0 to 100,000, from unknown to number one.

The Japanese market has always been the toughest bone for foreign automakers. But BYD pried open this door with one car.
On July 28, 2026, BYD officially started pre-sales for its pure electric K-Car "Sea Otter" (RACCO), specifically designed for the Japanese market. The starting price is 2.145 million Yen, approximately equivalent to 88,700 RMB.
In the first week of pre-sales, deposit orders directly surpassed 5,000 units. What does that mean? BYD's total sales in Japan for the full year of 2025 were only 3,731 units. An order volume for one car in one week exceeded the entire previous year. Prior to the launch at the Tokyo Motor Show, the prototype car had already gathered about 30,000 letters of intent. BYD set a goal for the Sea Otter to secure 10,000 orders by the end of 2026 — it now seems this goal might not need to be waited until the end of the year.

Japanese netizens discussed "Chinese car invasion" on one side, while silently placing orders on the other. This is the market's most honest feedback.
The issue is, BYD is not trading volume for lower prices, but rather seeing both volume and price soar together.
The Denza Z9GT launched in Europe, with the pure electric version starting at 115,000 Euros in France, approximately 918,000 RMB. Whereas domestically, the same model starts at only 269,800 RMB. For the same car, the European price is more than three times that in China.
However, the price did not scare off European consumers. The Denza Z9GT simultaneously opened bookings in the UK, Germany, France, Italy, and Spain, with plans to expand to 30 countries by the end of 2026. Denza General Manager Li Hui stated that Z9GT orders are already scheduled four months out. On the launch day of the Denza Z in the UK, nearly 20 orders were received from Serbia, and European and Middle Eastern markets are also urging delivery.
A Chinese car priced at 300,000 RMB selling for nearly 1 million in Europe, and people are still lining up to grab it. Who would have dared to think of this five years ago?
Currently, BYD's business covers 119 countries and regions worldwide. Factories in Thailand and Brazil are operating stably. Bases in Hungary and Indonesia went into production in April 2026. Overseas localized production capacity is expected to exceed 500,000 vehicles.
The 2026 overseas sales target is 1.5 million vehicles. From current data—789,000 in the first half, 180,000 in July alone—this goal is not unreachable.
From being just 243 vehicles short of catching Toyota in Australia, to surpassing BBA in the UK within three years with 100,000 sales, to the Japan K-Car weekly orders exceeding the entire previous year — every step BYD takes overseas is no longer a "trial", but a solid encroachment on the market share of traditional giants.
These three letters BYD may mean "Be Your Daddy" in the eyes of overseas competitors. But in BYD's own view, it might just be another starting point.
After all, globalization has never been an endpoint, but a marathon without an end.
