Chery Auto Malaysia is working closely with the Ministry of Transport to coordinate a recall of 600 units of Chery Omoda 5, to fix an issue involving detachment of the SUV’s rear axle (to be specific, it’s the control arm holding the torsion beam rear suspension). For the first time since a single car incident was reported 28-April, Chery Malaysia is now describing the exercise as a ‘recall.’ The company's earlier statements issued to the press had avoided using the word 'recall.'

Currently, Chery’s local assembly operations, including models such as the Omoda 5 and Tiggo 8 Pro, take place at the Inokom facility in Kulim, which it sh

This is the Chery Omoda 7 that has just made its global debut. It sits right on top of the Omoda 5 in the family tree. Right off the bat, it’s quite a departure from the Omoda 5, but no less eye-catching design wise. Its front and rear fascia get an X motif, while the protruding Darth Vader style grille is reminiscent of the Lexus RX. The full-width light bar at the rear gets lightning bolt style graphics and round to the side, it wears a rather large set of 20-inch wheels, while the darkened D-
