The Chery Q is estimated to be priced from “4xx,000 baht to 5xx,000 baht” across its three variants, or from RM50k to under RM62k in Thailand, Autolife Thailand has reported. Offered in three variants in Thailand, Qlick, Qool and Quint, If the price estimates are assumed to be around 450,000 baht, 499,000 baht and 599,000 baht, these convert to around RM56k, RM62k and RM75k.
The Chery Q measures 4,195 mm long, 1,811 mm wide and 1,573 mm tall with a 2,700 mm wheelbase. For comparison, the Proton eMas 5, which enters local assembly (CKD) this month, measures 4,135 mm long, 1,805 mm wide and 1,580 mm tall with a 2,650 mm wheelbase.
For powertrain, the Chery Q gets a single motor on the rear axle producing 79 PS and 90 Nm, drawing from a 29.48 kWh LFP battery that is rated for a range of 310 km on the CLTC test cycle; this would approximate a WLTP-rated range figure of around 250 km.
Compared against this, the eMas 5 is slightly more generous with its motor outputs. Like the Q, the eMas 5 is single-motor, rear-wheel-drive; the eMas 5 Prime gets a 79 PS/130 Nm motor drawing from a 30.12 kWh LFP CATL battery with 225 km of range (WLTP), while the Premium variant gets a 116 PS/150 Nm motor drawing from a 40.16 kWh battery offering 325 km of range (WLTP).
Charging the Chery Q can be done at up to 85 kW DC, which brings a 30-80% recharge in 16 minutes, while AC charging is from 3.3 kW to 6.6 kW, depending on variant. There is also V2 (vehicle-to-load) capability for powering external electrical appliances.
For comparison, the eMas 5 Prime will take up to 53 kW DC, while the Premium will receive up to 71 kW DC; owing to the different battery capacities, both variants of the eMas 5 will take a 30-80% recharge in 21 minutes. Both also take 6.6 kW AC charging, where the Prime and Premium variants will take 4.3 hours and 5.9 hours respectively for a 10-100% recharge.
Key interior equipment in the Chery Q includes an 8.8-inch driver’s instrument display and a 15.6-inch infotainment touchscreen, and this gets physical air-conditioning controls compared to other Chery models.
In the eMas 5, the driver’s display is an identical 8.8-inch size, while the infotainment touchscreen unit is slightly smaller at 14.6 inches. Both the Chery Q and Proton eMas 5 have a 375 litre rear luggage compartment and a 70 litre frunk.
Both the Chery Q and the Proton eMas 5 have six airbags, while driving assistance systems in the Chery include AEB, adaptive cruise control, lane centring assist, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert with auto brake, a front departure alert, a door opening warning and auto high beam.
On this front, the eMas 5 Prime gets blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert rear collision warning and a door opening warning, while the Premium variant adds on AEB, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert rear collision warning and door opening warning.
Chery already assembles cars in Malaysia, which presents the opportunity for the brand to sell the Chery Q in this market to rival the likes of the aforementioned Proton eMas 5 as well as the TQ Wuling Bingo. What do you think of the Chery Q? Would this be your pick should it become available in Malaysia?

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Read that many Chinese auto companies in red due to unhealthy competition..that is why we are getting cheapo crap here due to dumping…seems these Chinese auto are slowly dying..bye3
So that we can get cheaper or better cars from foreign brands or probably local brands too.
Anyone who doesn’t trust china brands is still free to choose what to buy, and yet healthy competition is good for consumers.
We don’t get cheaper price in Thailand anyway, emas 5 is selling 20% cheaper in Thailand lol.
SOHAI ONLY BUY EV. WHY? because EV car TAX is HIGHER than PETROL CAR, but EC car enjoy ZERO SUBSIDY but paid higher tariff TNB BILL (while petrol car LOWER TAX lagi enjoy petrol subsidy) . ### MITI Mini3rd never use brain to think, if lower EV TAX make very LOW PRICE attractive for petrol car owner to auto-swap to EV, it auto saving rm3.5b monthly petrol subsidy when >90% EV on the road, and standard EV car range MUST SPEC IN >400km
LOL yeah sure cool story bro, you keep telling yourself that FUD.
Funny, been hearing that since years ago. You ignoramus in 2019 also said the X70 will fail bcos Malaysians dont want chinese cars. Idiots like this lipas will always be idiots because of their stubborn to change mentality.
Healthy competition tu mcm mne? Compete dgn tongkat miti? Bangang punya org… Agak agak laa nk jilat pon. Jgn la smpai kilat. Cucu cicit cirit birit ko pon nk jilat jugak
u mix up chinese with japanese brands
Chery and gwm cars sold during badawi’s time are still seen on our roads. These two are one of the pioneers in car manufacturing in china. That means even their old models are reliable and still in used.
Atleast they are cheap over there, while we get jack up price due to ap and P1 P2 protection
Rear-axle strong or not? Later want to fix kena LOD pulak.
Can’t wait for it to be assembled in Malaysia as soon as possible and get a significant share from emas5. CKD emas 5 same spec and same price…Malaysian need to teach them a lesson as we remember how they are milking us to the max given the chance
wow, this is elevating the game with strong technology and comfort.
At the rate chery and its sub brands are going, it can be the third national car.
Perodua should just partner with Chery for sub compact models.
hope the rear axle is good
