In recent years, with the new opportunities brought about by the Belt and Road Initiative, Chery has always regarded the Arab states as a key area for overseas expansion. As a result, Chery’s car ownership has reached 600,000 vehicles in Arab states and Middle Eastern countries, and the automaker has established four KD factories and three joint venture companies there, according to Du Weiqiang, senior deputy general manager of Chery International, at the 3rd China-Arab States Business Summit held in September this year.
