    PLANNING stage pa lang ang planta dito ng GW. If sales do not pick up, the plant will not go through.

    FYI, the first owners of CHERY Philippines also planned to put up an assembly plant before. But now they are gone.

    I think the real cause of CHERY problem is internal as per story I heard from a reliable source.

    Yes Hover is quite popular in Croatia, you can try google.

    Yeah magulo kasi ang Iseway at local partners nila kaya naloko-loko tuloy ang Chery rito..Nagmadali sila masyado noon.

    Yung Great Wall eh serious naman sila plans nila rito lalo na't nakipagpartner sila sa Francisco Motors para gumawa ng Wingle pickups dito sa Pinas.

    Sa ngayon Great Wall,Chery at Geely lang ang matinong independent Chinese car companies sa China..Yung Chana,JAC,Brilliance,Lifan and BYD ay may build quality issues parin but magbabago din yang mga yan.

    So far yung nakikita ko lang na successful na Chinese brands are Foton, Great Wall and JAC. Ang dami na ng JAC trucks sa kalsada ngayon! Pero yung iba nakikita ko laspag na kahit yung plaka Z-plate lang. May relative nga akong bumili ng JAC Princess FB (yung pinakamaliit nila na truck w/ 1.8L diesel) naattract dahil sa price at freebies ayun, laging nasisira, mahina ang aircon, mahina ang engine, at kumakalawang na... Foton seems to be more reliable since three government agencies (PCSO, MMDA and BJMP) have already bought huge volumes of different vehicles from them. Great Wall naman, I'm seeing a growing number of Coolbears, Cowry's and Hovers on the streets.

    Are you sure about it? kasi I've read way before that they have already coordinated with the partner and DTI regarding the investment eh...they even had a MOA signing....


    edit*: I saw a HAVAL M2 kanina eye catching talaga sya hehehe... its like a beefed up mini cooper...hehe...alright maybe i'm exaggerating a bit...but it really can make you take that 2nd look...

    HAHAHA Talaga? Nasaan ang planta? Nasa utak mo?

    Planning to build pa lang January 2011, February may planta na?

    Great Wall Motor Co Ltd, plans to team up with Philippines-based Statemotor Corp to build an automobile plant, which will cost US$8.06 million, in the Philippines, said Cristino L. Panlilio, managing head of the Philippine Board of Investments or BOI. hktdc.com, Jan 2011

    Just wanna share my experience with a Chery brand car. I don't know if this is the proper forum. But my review may help someone considering buying a chery car.

    I spent 5 days last week driving a chery QQ. Only 3000+ km on the odometer. I was visiting cebu and a friend lent me this car to use around the city. It was apple green.

    I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun I had with it. Being very small, apple green, and quite uncommon, I felt like I was distinguished from every other average car on the road. I don't know if this makes sense -- but it was also refreshing, I did not feel any pressure from other cars. "Yes, it's a chery, i know, but it's fun." I also found the transmission control unique and enjoyed the fact that you can just plug a USB storage device into the headunit and play mp3s right away.

    In terms of performance, it is really slow and weak. It was almost unable to get up the ramp from the Ayala mall basement parking. I had to turn the a/c off and hold my breath (not sure if that helped). According to a friend riding with me, the girls in a 90s model Pajero behind us were laughing at us. Hehe Fun.

    I can tell that reliability is also bad. It was still a pretty new car but it would already rattle like a poorly serviced 15 year old corolla.

    Would I buy one? Maybe. As a toy.

    puntahan mo yung dating planta ng franciso motors, then saka ka magsabi na walang planta ang great wall dito. :D haha

    don't believe everything you read unless you can confirm it yourself :D haha
