Kiwis and Aussies will be rejoicing with the news that Chery have signed up with ATECO of Australia to fulfill Australasian dreams of being an owner of a Chery automobile. ATECO were recently reported by the New Zealand press as planning to import into NZ as well:

Chinese-designed and built cars are coming to New Zealand, with Ateco Automotive – which imports Alfa Romeo, Citroen and Fiat products for Australia and New Zealand – signing a deal with Chinese company Chery Automobile.

Ateco says it will launch three Chery models early next year – a light and a small passenger car, plus a small crossover, which is most likely to be the Tiggo.

Chery has four new models to unveil later this year and plans to release 38 new models over the next five years.
