Chery Targets 60% Overseas Vehicle Production Share in 2027
Chery expects overseas manufacturing to account for 60% of its export volume in 2027, up from approximately 48% in 2026, as it expands production closer to international customers.

No. Executive Vice President Zhang Guibing said on October 23, 2026, that overseas manufacturing represents approximately 48% of export volume this year. Chery expects the share to exceed 50% by year end and reach 60% in 2027.
Orbitrum Investor Impact
Why does overseas manufacturing matter for Chery?
Producing vehicles closer to international customers could reduce shipping costs, strengthen local partnerships and improve market access. The financial benefit will depend on production costs, factory utilization and international demand.
Could the expansion affect Chery stock?
Chery Automobile trades in Hong Kong under stock code 9973. Successful localization could strengthen its international growth and competitive position, but the announcement provides no quantified earnings or margin benefit.
Does the 60% target mean Chery will increase exports by 60%?
No. The target measures the proportion of export volume manufactured overseas, not growth in total vehicle sales or exports.
What manufacturing milestones should Chery investors watch?
Chery targets more than 50% overseas manufacturing in 2026, 60% in 2027 and 70% by 2030. Investors can assess execution through actual production shares and evidence that international manufacturing improves profitability.
