Chery Arrizo 5 2020-2022

In August 2018, the Chery Arrizo 5 family sedan was launched in Egypt. It's classified as a compact sedan and is considered the new generation of the Chery Envy model. It was offered in two trim levels, with prices ranging from EGP 271,900 to EGP 289,900. Initially offered as an imported model from China, the car was reintroduced in July 2019 as a locally produced version with three trim levels, with prices ranging from EGP 168,900 to EGP 202,900.

The locally assembled version was introduced as a 2022 model, while the imported version was introduced as a 2019 model. The car's design appears largely traditional, with some sporty touches in the design of the headlights, front grille, wheels, and bumpers. Equipment includes a hydraulic power steering system and 16-inch aluminum alloy wheels with 205/55R16 tires. In June 2020, the car's price was increased to start at EGP 169,900. The car was introduced in September 2020 as a 2021 model with the same previous price, starting at EGP 169,900. The second category starts at EGP 188,000, the third category starts at EGP 189,900, and the fourth category starts at EGP 202,900, making the total number of categories four. The third category differs from the second category only in the type of interior upholstery, which is black leather, and costs EGP 1,900 more than the second category.

GB Ghabbour Auto announced the expansion of its participation in the presidential initiative to replace and renew old cars with natural gas-powered ones, by introducing the Chery Arrizo 5 sedan to the initiative in 2022.

Motor

70%

The locally assembled car uses a 1.5-liter, 4-cylinder, DVVT engine that produces 116 hp at 6,150 rpm and 141 Nm of torque at 3,800 rpm. It comes mated to a 5-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed CVT continuously variable automatic transmission. Power is transmitted from the engine to the front wheels.

The fuel tank holds approximately 48 liters. The car accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 11.5 seconds. With the manual transmission, it consumes an average of 5.7 liters per 100 km in and around the city. The top speed is 185 km/h for the manual and 180 km/h for the automatic.

The car's performance is average, not fast, but it can reach 180 km/h. The engine is considered to have average economic performance, not strong performance, as it produces power at high revs. Therefore, at medium and low revs, you don't get the maximum performance you desire. Despite the average performance resulting from an engine that doesn't offer sporty performance, there are no common problems.

The transmission is somewhat old, so the car takes some time in the first shift. There is also some lag in the transmission at medium speeds and when shifting to higher speeds. However, at low and medium speeds, performance is smooth and good. Despite this, there are no complaints about the CVT transmission among car owners.

As for the car's fuel consumption, it is good for its class, with an Eco button to save fuel, which is considered one of its advantages. The steering is average, but there is a jolt in the steering wheel after 120 km, and steering maneuverability isn't the best, as the steering is slow, which is compensated by the car's significant stability at high speeds.

The car is 4572 mm long, 1825 mm wide, and 1482 mm high. It has a 2670 mm wheelbase and a standard luggage compartment capacity of 430 liters. The car's curb weight is approximately 1297 mm.

Although the interior materials are mostly plastic in various colors, with leather accents in the higher trim levels, the quality of the car's finish is excellent and no different from the imported version.

The car offers ample interior space due to its long wheelbase. It provides good front legroom and headroom for the driver and front passenger, with the driver's seat being comfortably adjustable, surpassing its competitors. It also offers ample rear space, accommodating two or three people, with a slightly lower gearbox, which doesn't cause significant problems. There's also ample rear legroom, with a large distance between the front seatbacks and the rear seats, and good rear headroom. The seats themselves are also very comfortable, especially the driver and front passenger seats, which are comfortable and better than other seats in their class.

The car's 430-liter trunk isn't the largest in its class, but it's fairly good, especially given the deep and wide design, making it easy to load a lot of items. The rear bench can also be folded to create more space in the trunk.

The car's sound insulation is a drawback. Air insulation is good, but the insulation is above average, so you don't hear traffic noises in the cabin in city areas. However, the sound insulation over bumps is noticeable, and the car overall isn't overly rough.

The cabin offers plenty of features, including a rearview camera and decent front storage space, including two cupholders and another storage space under the headrest. The car also offers multiple interior storage spaces in the rear. The front has limited chrome touches in the higher trim levels, along with a good-looking steering wheel with leather upholstery for the higher trim levels, control buttons, and leather seats with red stitching. The car lacks a rear armrest or rear air conditioning vents.

The car offers a low driving position, which gives it a sporty feel, and a large glass area, providing better visibility for the driver both in the front and rear.

Spare Parts

80%

Spare parts are widely available outside the dealership, and their prices are reasonable and not expensive. Car maintenance has also become more widespread due to the car's popularity and its presence in Egypt since 2019, which has led to technicians becoming accustomed to it for three years. Spare parts are also available at the dealership at moderate prices.

Suspension

90%

The car comes with a MacPherson strut front suspension and a Torigen Beam rear suspension. Its best features are its stability on the road, with the ability to maneuver and turn without leaning at high speeds, outperforming its competitors in stability in particular.

The suspension also tends to be comfortable and smooth, absorbing bumps and potholes well and absorbing road imperfections. The higher the speed, the better it is at absorbing road imperfections, but it's definitely not the best suspension. It's not bad over bumps, as we explained, although the sound of the bump can be heard, as it's 129 mm off the ground.

Resale

80%

The car boasts good engine performance, in addition to its diverse equipment, which indicates what many Chinese brands rely on to give their products an edge over their competitors. Perhaps what's most striking is the car's diverse safety features, something rarely seriously addressed in Chinese cars. This, along with the car's adoption as a replacement for the Hyundai Verna, which has become wildly popular in Egypt, places it in a prime position, as it offers good resale value, ease of resale, and value, especially since its agent, GB Ghabbour Auto, is known for its ease of selling its cars, whether Hyundai, Chery, or previous Geely models, for which it was the agent.

The car is considered reliable and has had no notable problems since its launch. It has become popular in Egypt, particularly in Uber and Careem vehicles, and for small families, and is considered a great value for money.

Security

80%

The car offers many safety features that can be described as average; they are neither bad nor few, nor are they as abundant as in higher-class cars. They are considered among the basic safety features, with the absence of blind spot detection and other modern safety features such as collision avoidance and others, and the lack of more than two airbags in the car.

The car also lacks electronic stability control, which is compensated for by the car's strong brakes, which appear to be lighter than the car, as they have ventilated front discs and rear discs.

The car also offers the same safety features in all classes, but its drawbacks are

The first is a manual baseline

- Engine immobilizer system

- Front airbags

- Anti-lock brakes (ABS)

- Electronic brake force distribution (EBD)

-Anti-theft system

-Rear sensor

-Exceeding the speed limit warning

-ISOFIX child seat anchor system

Second Class Automatic Baseline

Safety features in the second class are identical to those in the first class

Third Class Automatic Baseline Leather Upholstery

Safety features apply to the first, second, and third classes

Fourth Class Highline

Safety features in the fourth class are superior to those in the previous classes by:

-Rear camera

-Immobilization alarm Front seat belts
