On April 23rd, as spring blossoms adorn the Huangpu Riverbanks, the 2025 Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition, themed “Embracing Innovation, Sharing a Win-Win Future”, is set to grandly open. The National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) will become the focal point for global attention, as its exhibition halls spanning over 360,000 square meters will welcome nearly 1,000 renowned automotive enterprises and technology giants from 26 countries worldwide, launching a magnificent mobility extravaganza.
As one of the largest and most technologically intensive A-class auto shows in the world, the Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition has resonated with China’s automotive industry development over the past 4 decades, witnessing the tumultuous shifts in the global automotive competition landscape and China’s leapfrogging development within the automotive industry. Unlike previous ones, the 2025 Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition boasts broader international participation and record-breaking scale, comprehensively showcasing the cutting-edge technological advancements and innovative breakthroughs in the global automotive industry, presenting a succession of world premieres of new vehicles and a myriad of innovative achievements blossoming in diverse forms.
Amid historic industry shifts, China’s Chery-led “Eastern acceleration“ is reshaping the global competitive landscape
A century ago, the roaring sound of the assembly lines in Detroit factories ushered in the 1.0 era of the automotive industry. Three decades ago, Toyota, which emerged from a loom factory, revolutionized the global market with its innovative “lean production” model. Nowadays, amidst profound transformations in the world economic landscape and China’s economic development pattern, the epicenter of global automotive industry is quietly pivoting eastward. Chinese automotive brands, with Chery and BYD at the forefront, are expediting the transformation of the global automotive industry’s competitive landscape, contributing to China’s position as the world’s largest automobile producer and consumer for 16 consecutive years and maintaining its status as the largest automobile exporter globally.
On China’s rapid trajectory towards becoming an automotive supremacy, Chery Group, which has held the distinction of being China’s top exporter of branded passenger vehicles for 22 consecutive years, stands out as the most representative autonomous brand. In 2024, Chery Group achieved a new record for overseas exports among Chinese automakers, with 1.14 million vehicles exported. This equates to one Chery vehicle being delivered to an overseas customer every 27 seconds. From Egypt’s desert highways to Brazil’s rainforest trails, from Moscow’s icy streets to Kuala Lumpur’s tropical avenues, Chery’s footprints have reached over 110 countries and regions worldwide, making the label of “Made in China” synonymous with innovation for 16 million users worldwide. While traditional auto giants from Europe, America, Japan and Korea grapple with the transition towards electrification and intelligence, Chery is seizing the initiative in the new energy “blue ocean” with world-leading hybrid technology, completing its evolution from follower to frontrunner.
As the Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition approaches, there is no doubt that Chery, which is highly anticipated, has seen a surge in both attention and discussion. It is reported that at this exhibition, Chery will not only convene dealers from across the globe to witness the brand’s formidable prowess but will also unveil its cutting-edge hybrid technology, an array of new models, and groundbreaking technological advancements represented by robots and robotic dogs, which will ignite a tech tornado under the spotlight. Chery’s showcase promises to redefine what we call “future standards” in mobility—with Chinese engineering now rewriting the rulebook.
Chery’s “Hybrid Open-Source Initiative“: leading a new era of sustainable mobility for a better future
As ChatGPT and DeepSeek reshape the AI ecosystem, Chery’s “Hybrid Open-Source Initiative” is redefining the global discourse on automotive technology. With the rapid development of intelligentization, breakthroughs in AI big data models, and the global shift toward green powertrains, Chery, leveraging over two decades of technological expertise, has forged a world-leading hybrid system anchored by three core pillars: full-chain control over core technologies, defining industry standards with safety as the bottom line, and collaborating with global partners to establish an open-source ecosystem. Chery has redefined hybrid excellence with its ”4H1S” global standard featuring high energy efficiency, high performance, high intelligence, high safety, and strong off-road capabilities. In a landmark move, Chery is open-sourcing its core patents for super hybrid technologies and working with overseas partners to jointly shape technical standards.
The “Hybrid Open-Source Initiative” represents more than just a simple sharing of technology; it signifies a “global collaborative evolution” towards sustainable mobility. From the Andes to the Alps, from the Sahara Desert to the Siberian tundra, Chery’s hybrid technology embraces localized innovation to meet diverse regional needs. This marks a significant transition from mere “product exports” to “technology exports,” and further still, to a state of “technology symbiosis”, thereby truly enabling users globally to enjoy a more energy-efficient, cost-saving, convenient, and reassuring travel experience.
As a driving force behind Chinese brands’ global ascent, Chery proactively embraces its social responsibilities, vigorously pursues green environmental protection initiatives, collaborates with the IUCN, establishes the Chery Global ESG Alliance, and steadfastly dedicates itself to fostering sustainable global ecological development, endowing technology with a human touch for a greener planetary future.
From April 23rd to May 2nd, the highly anticipated 2025 Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition will soon kick off. With the theme of “New Technology, New Integration, New Mission”, Chery aims to harness its cutting-edge hybrid technology and innovative prowess to forge a “super interface” in the epoch of globalization and intelligence. Together with global partners, Chery endeavors to pen a new chapter of mutual benefit and a shared future. The allure of this event extends far beyond the vehicles themselves, stay tuned as Chery redefines intelligent transportation with breakthroughs beyond imagination.
