KARACHI, December 14, 2021: Chery Automobile Co., Ltd., the number one automobile export company of China has partnered with Ghandhara, a leading name in manufacturing and distribution of vehicles for local production of the latest generation Tiggo Series SUVs.
This move is part of Chery’s strategy to engage with emerging automotive markets around the world, tailoring brands and products to meet the rising consumer demand. Sales of the first locally built vehicles are expected to begin in Pakistan within the fiscal year 2021-22.
Ghandhara’s investment of $10million over the first four years will provide the industry with a much-needed financial boost, as well as help expand a retail network and create job opportunities. Chery will launch with an initial dealership network of 8 dealers across Pakistan and a production capacity of 16,000 units. In their second phase of production, this will be increased up to 32,000 units as their state-of-the-art plant is being built in Karachi’s Port Qasim.
Chery and Ghandhara will work together to introduce world class facilities in Karachi’s Port Qasim. The partners are working closely to have a long-standing relationship, bringing a wealth of local knowledge and experience with the latest engineering technologies.
Currently, Pakistan’s automotive industry accounts for almost nearly 4% of the GDP. Chery’s entry will provide Pakistani customers with a fresh and desirable lineup designed and built with modern engineering & technology. The Tiggo Series is a global model line-up that integrates the latest design, power and intelligent technologies with the processes. What stands out the most is its dynamic appearance, luxurious and comfortable interior, and smart configurations.

Chery will now be locally assembling the Tiggo series with dynamic local partners who have been in this field for the past five decades.
