Chery rolls out ‘Cherished' pre-owned car programme across SA
Chery SA has introduced a certified pre-owned vehicle programme called Cherished.
The pre-owned models come with the full backing of the Chinese carmaker and provide dealers with a selection of carefully inspected and high-quality pre-owned Chery SUVs, said Jay Jay Botes, GM for Chery SA.
He said all cars retain the remainder of the 10-year/one-million-kilometre engine warranty, a benefit exclusively available from Cherished dealers within the Chery dealer network. The engine warranty was initially available only to the first owner and was not transferable.
Botes said every vehicle undergoes a comprehensive inspection and all Cherished pre-owned vehicles receive the balance of the service plan, with a minimum of one-year/15,000km remaining. To qualify as a Cherished vehicle, all Chery models need to have been maintained within the Chery Dealer network.
Additionally, customers will be offered the chance to extend their service or maintenance plans, providing further peace of mind.
Chery returned to the SA market in 2021 after exiting in 2018. It has become the country's second-best-selling Chinese car brand behind GWM/Haval.
