Chery has confirmed that the Tiggo 4 Cross will be the first model to roll off its newly acquired line in Rosslyn.
Chery South Africa has confirmed that the Tiggo 4 Cross will be the first model produced at its newly acquired assembly plant in Rosslyn, near Pretoria.
The plant, which was purchased from Nissan, was officially inaugurated earlier this month and will undergo significant upgrades ahead of production commencing in the second half of 2027.
Chery’s sister brand Jaecoo also previously confirmed that its J5 compact SUV would be built at the Rosslyn plant. The J5 is closely based on Chery’s Tiggo 4 Cross, as is the Lepas L4, which is also reportedly under consideration for local production.
Furthermore, Chery is conducting feasibility studies into a bakkie for local production at “a later stage”, but no final decision has been made yet. The KP31 bakkie is said to be on the radar for local introduction – read more about it here.
