Chana vs Cherry

[freelance]

There a new Chana showroom at near Pioneer Highlands. Their mini cars looks cool but could anyone which of these China made cars gives the best value for budgeted cars?...tnx

There's a Chana Benni versus Chery QQ article in the July issue of Top Gear Phil. TGP preferred the latter.

The Benni that they tested has some weird engine problem (it would rev up all of a sudden even without any throttle input).

The Benni TG tested was my sisters car (it was loaned to them for 2-3 days). I drove it hard the other day and also asked my father (he drives it everyday) about it and we cannot duplicate what they experienced. My father is also a bit disappointed with the write up including me

Whats with TG test drivers anyway? They even commented on the sport pedals that we purchased (150php) that is not in anyway an OEM accessory.

Our Benni is now nearing 6,000kms drive tested and reviewed by motioncars.com (click on the link to read http://www.motioncars.com/drives/04....8_01/index.htm) and now TG Phillipines.

Singapore CarMart.com was able Road Test the Benni just click on the links to read their comments and conclusion:

the review looks good...

overboost. i hope you can post some more models of chana that are being sold here. dont they have an LPG car for taxi use? like chery's and lifan?

i sure hope that chana benni's engine works more than what it looks...

The interior of the Benni seems a bit less well-built than the QQ... but Chana is offering a good warranty on their cars. Still have to put some miles on them to find out if they're any good.

Isn't Chery the one offering the better warranty (5 years / 150,000 kms) over Chana's standard 3 years / 100,000 kms?

r they really offering a 5 yr warranty for the cherry QQ?...they must be really confident with their engines...

[niky]

Yeah. There's the rub.

The biggest selling point, for me, of Chana over Chery were the more sophisticated engines and the warranty. (Sophisticated in the sense that they were all-electronic, etcetera). But now that Chery has the longer warranty, and given that the cheap QQ is apparently of commendable quality, that tide is shifted in Chery's favor.

Include the fact that Chery has dealerships sprouting like mushrooms all over the country, and it's an uphill battle for Chana in the local market.

interior of the cherry = feels like orocan,touching the steering wheel feels like holding a tabo...

interior of the benny = aaaah....no comment....basta mas ok ang interior ng QQ

based lang ito sa mga napansin ko nun sumakay ako sa loob ng mga yan noon hehehe...plastics are flimsy...several notches below the koreans...but at least they are trying tayo lawanit na binalot ng carpet pa din after all these years

[niky]

The QQ's aircon is also kinda weak.
