Chery Automobile Co., Ltd. was founded in 1997 by five of Anhui’s local state owned investment companies with an initial capitalization of RMB 3.2 billion. Plant construction commenced on March 18, 1997 in Wuhu, Anhui Province, China. The first car came off the production line on December 18, 1999. And on August 22, 2007, the one-millionth car of Chery rolled out the assembly line successfully, which signifies that Chery has already achieved its first-stage goal in the process of building a successful independent Chinese brand, and is now on its way to create a world famous brand through opening and innovation.
奇瑞汽车有限公司成立于1997年由安徽省地方国有企业与人民币32.0亿的初始资本投资公司5。工厂建设开始于1997年3月18日在安徽省芜湖市，中国。第一辆出场于1999年12月18日的生产线。并于2007年8月22日，一个100万的奇瑞汽车推出了装配生产线成功，这标志着奇瑞已经取得了建设一个成功的自主品牌过程中的第一阶段目标，并以自己的方式现在通过建立一个开放，创新的世界知名品牌。
In 2007, the annual sales volume of Chery reached 381,000 units, increasing by 24.8% compared with 2006. In 2007 also, Chery achieved an annual export volume of 119,800 units. As a result, the overseas sales of Chery had doubled again with an increase rate of 132%, ranking 1st for 5 consecutive years in car export in China.
2007年，年销售奇瑞量达到381000辆，增长24.8％，较2006年。在2007年还，奇瑞达到了11.98万台，年出口量。因此，奇瑞的海外销售额翻了一番，再次为132％的增长速度，居5在中国的汽车出口连续两年第一。
As early as its foundation, Chery has been persistently carrying forward the spirit of “self-reliance, self-improvement, innovation and enterprising”, and sticking to the objective of “bringing together excellent talents and capital, striving for world leading technologies, owning independent intellectual property rights, building internationally-famous brand, developing the global automotive market and ranking among the world top automakers”, so as to ceaselessly sharpen its core competitiveness in fierce market competition. Through 10 years of leap-forward development, Chery has currently had independent capacity for the R & D of vehicles, engines and some key parts and components, independent intellectual property rights and core technologies, and become China’s largest enterprise in the R & D, manufacture, sale and export of Chinese independent-branded passenger cars, laying a solid foundation for more intense competition and faster development. Mr. Jin Yibo, official spokesman of Chery, said that Chery’s responsibility is to design and manufacture safer, saver and greener models.
早在其成立初期，奇瑞一直坚持弘扬“自力更生，自我提高，创新，进取”的精神，坚持以“聚集优秀人才和资金的目标，争取为世界领先的技术，拥有自主知识产权，打造国际知名品牌，发展全球汽车市场，跻身于世界排名第一的汽车“，以不断加强其在激烈的市场竞争的核心竞争力。经过10年的跨越式发展，奇瑞目前已经在研发汽车，发动机和一些关键零部件，自主知识产权和核心技术Ḏ独立的身份，成为中国最大的研发企业，制造，销售和独立的中国品牌轿车的出口，奠定了更加激烈的竞争和更快的发展奠定了基础。靳一般先生，奇瑞公司的官方发言人说，奇瑞的责任是设计和制造更安全，更节省，更环保的模式。

Chery, with the ambition to create an independent famous Chinese brand, as early as its product entering the market, has set up the eternal aim of “customer satisfaction” and the quality principle of “taking offering customers with zero-defect products and considerate service as the persistent objective of each employee”. This corporate philosophy ensured that Chery obtained ISO9001 International Quality System Certification in February, 2001.

At the same time, it also actively practices "going out" strategy.
