ADME commentary

The ADME angle

Chery's achievement of surpassing 20 million cumulative vehicle sales worldwide is a significant threat to established brands in the Australian market, particularly in the budget-conscious segments where Chinese brands have traditionally been strong

Competitor Response

The rapid international expansion of Chery Group will likely lead to increased competition in the Australian market, forcing local dealers to reassess their pricing and margin strategies to remain competitive

Chery's success can be attributed to its ability to offer high-quality vehicles at competitive prices, which will put pressure on Australian dealers to review their own pricing and ensure they are offering value to customers

Marketing and Lead Handling

The fact that Chery has become the first Chinese automotive group to surpass 20 million cumulative global vehicle sales is a testament to the growing influence of Chinese brands in the global automotive market, and Australian dealers should be prepared to respond to this shift in consumer preferences

Showroom Traffic

To remain competitive, Australian dealers should focus on providing exceptional customer service and ensuring that their showrooms are welcoming and well-stocked with a range of vehicles that meet the needs of budget-conscious consumers, who are increasingly turning to Chinese brands like Chery

One decisive action Australian dealers can take this week is to review their current stock and ordering processes to ensure they are well-positioned to respond to the growing demand for affordable, high-quality vehicles
