Qoros 7

As the first strategic vehicle model of new Qoros, Qoros 7 inherits the brand DNA of "quality, safety and internationalization", fully interprets the sports, fashion and youth, and realizes all-round evolution from design to configuration. From appearance, technical configuration and power control to comfortable experience, Qoros 7 brings eternal love and care to Chinese consumers, helps the modern LOHAS be themselves and go a steady and far way in the life.

Qoros 7 has a stable and grand outline, with square design to highlight its acute style. The styling of Qoros 7 originates from the design concept of "Beyond the Edge", "Infinite beauty in details" and "square aesthetics". Its square and substantial wide body, combined with "stony wave" surface and full waist line, makes vehicle line smooth, powerful, sharp and dynamic, very expressive. As for the interior, the ingenious cabin design is inspired by the coastline scoured by rising and falling tides and the enclosed cabin creates a luxurious and elegant driving atmosphere. The simple design style, together with the leather covering, the panel with elegant and dynamic texture decoration, the integrated through-type air outlet and the panorama sunroof, enhances visual extension and creates ample driving space and excellent driving views.

Qoros 7 is powered by brand new 1.6T and 1.8T high-efficiency engines, which adopt Valvetronic continuously variable valve lift technology and turbocharging intercooling direct injection technology, with strong power, low fuel consumption, low emission and other advantages, fully meeting China VI vehicle emission standards. The whole series of Qoros 7 are equipped with Getrag seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, featuring long life, stability and durability, further improving driving comfort and mobility. Qoros 7 employs LVC dynamic performance chassis, the Macpherson front independent suspension and the rear multi-link independent suspension and the whole series are configured with Bosch electronic power steering system, bringing reliable stability.

Chinese Qoros7 has BMW Valvetronic

Chery's premium division keeps ticking over.

As their build quality, design sensibility and component sourcing improve, Chinese car companies are realising that marketing bias is not an easy issue to defeat.

Borrowing from the Japanese premium branding strategy of the early 1990s (think Toyota/Lexus and Nissan/Infiniti), most of the better Chinese car companies have created sub-brands of their own.

For Chery, that entails Qoros. Positioned as a Chinese premium vehicle brand, it was founded in 2007 with Israeli partners and in 2017, received additional American funding – before the US/Chinese trade conflict started in earnest.

Inside there is some inspired cabin architecture and a generous digital screen offering. The traditional instrumentation binnacle is replaced with a 12.3-inch display, whilst a huge 14.6-inch portrait orientated central touchscreen services the Qoros7’s infotainment. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility are coded into the SUV’s digital offering.

Powering this new Chinese SUV are two turbopetrol engine options, both featuring Valvetronic continuously variable valve technology, which would indicate an agreement of some sort with BMW. The 1.6-litre four-cylinder is good for 150 kW and 280 Nm, whilst Qoros 7’s 1.8-litre boosts 170 kW and 300 Nm.

Qoros says that its new SUV will launch in Europe and China simultaneously.
