wrong and totalyl not
well if u take one market like singapore to judge .. then u r totaly an idiot
for example
here in egypt the
Chery QQ starts at $7500 ( American Dollars ) and most expensive one ( with abs / ezdrive ( steptronic gear box and USB slot ) costs $9100 with 3 Years Waranty or 60,000 KM .
The Kia Picanto 1.1 BASIC MODEL ( no cassette / no power steering / no electric windows / manual mirrors ) starts at $10,000
the Kia Picanto 1.1 L Automatic with power steering and electric windows and cassette ( no abs or any other option ) is at $11,900
Perodua Kelisa 1.0 Manual ( no options at all except the cassette ) starts at $9000 ( as much as the most equipped QQ ) comes with 1 year warnaty !!
Preodua Kelisa 1.0 Automatic ( power steering / cassette only ) $10,000 , still more expensive and its not even step tronic and with one year waranty
Chery QQ is the cheapest car with bigger options in the market here , I mean NO OTHER manufacture has a STEPTRONIC GEARBOX in that price range at all !! the closest ( by far ) is the Suzuki New Swift ( 1.5L - costs $17,000 )
however What I hate the most is the GEELY HQ / MR and all that crappy charade clones , these cars are not worth $7000
they are not worth to be cars , they are more of a golf cars to me
but cherys QQ is really doing well , I've never seen any one saying any bad comments or complains about , and these views are from ppl who already own other known brands such as toyotas / mitsus / chevys and more .
Chery Just launched a new REVISED Model of the Windcloud ( Fengyun ) Called the Chery A11LONG , which is a 30CM taller version of the normal Windcloud with wood stylings / 1.6L 16V engine / abs / 2 airbags / power mirrors / windows / radio cassette / bla bla bla , and it costs $11.900 ( same price as a SUPERMINI PICANTO )
so saying that the Picanto is better than a Chery QQ might be true , but its definetly NOT CHEAPER by any meanss !!
