Chery launches second stop of global safety campaign in Indonesia
KUALA LUMPUR: Chery has launched the second stop of its global Chery Safety Challenge campaign in Indonesia, focusing on battery safety in extreme humidity.
The Chinese carmaker said the challenge marks a significant milestone in its commitment to rigorous real-world testing, following a series of extreme safety tests conducted in China.
This includes spiral rollovers, dual-vehicle collisions and a seven-vehicle vertical stack challenge.
"The Tiggo 8 Pro CSH, Chery's flagship plug-in hybrid SUV, will take on this challenge, underlining the battery system's reliability in Indonesia's tropical, rain-soaked environment.
"The same vehicle model (Tiggo 8 Pro CSH) had endured a 48-hour seven-car stack stress test in Wuhu, China reflecting Chery's rigorous safety benchmarks," it added.
Chery said the spotlight now turns to Indonesia's high-humidity tropical climate, where Chery will demonstrate the resilience and safety of its battery system in a highly challenging environmental condition.
The safety test in Indonesia is part of Chery's global 'In Somewhere, For Somewhere' strategy, reflecting a deep commitment to market-specific product adaptation.
By addressing local concerns, such as flooding and humidity, Chery said it positions itself as a reliable partner in delivering safe, intelligent mobility solutions.
