Al Habtoor, Chery launch Arrizo5 in UAE

Jagdish Parulekar, CFO Al Habtoor Motors, and Carl Cao, senior sales manager Middle East, at the launch of Chery Arrizo5.

Setting a new technical standard, the Chery Arrizo5 is the second generation car in the highly popular Arrizo series. Starting from Dh39,900, Chery Arrizo5 is all set to be a game-changer in the category with its stylish, aggressive and advanced features.
In keeping with the latest design trends in the automotive world, Chery, by integrating the work of world-renowned designers with the traditional Chinese cultural element of "water" has given the Chery Arrizo5 a dynamic streamlined H.D.S (Hydro dynamic surfacing) body style.
Featuring generous proportions, there is plenty of room for up to five people in the passenger compartment, the new sedan's body is set at 1825mm width making it more spacious than the rivals hands down in passenger space and room for a trunk of 430 litres. Inheriting the familiar design style of Chery brand on the whole, the Arrizo5 features a piano finish on the black grille that not only adds a shine, but also gives a dynamic look, while protecting it against corrosion and ageing.
Five star safety standards
Chery Arrizo5's exterior adopts a special metal folding technique which adds to the safety factor of the vehicle. With more than 60 per cent of high-strength steel used in the body cage construction, super high-strength thermal-forming steel applied in six positions and increased thickness of pillars, the new car has a longer service and enhanced protection of the occupants.
Adhering to Chery's eternal commitment of "More Care, Higher Safety", the car safety is designed according to latest (2015) C-NCAP highest impact safety standard.
Rear passenger safety
To maximise the protection of rear seat passengers under emergency braking, there's perfect design combination of three point safety belt and tilting seats. Add to that, height adjustable headrest in rear seat further protects rear seat passengers' neck and head under rear collision cases.
Engine and transmission
Powered by a robust 1.5 litre high performance DVVT engine, produces large torque output under slow engine speeds offering lower fuel consumption and environmental friendly emission. Combined with CVT there's efficient power transmission, which could reach 90 per cent. It could reach the optimal balance between power and energy consumption by efficiently reducing power loss and substantially increase the energy efficiency.
Staying connected
Seven-inch HD touch screen in the heart of the one-piece console displays all critical information in a clear and easy way. It also offers connections for SD, USB, Wi-Fi and bluetooth devices. With mobile phones becoming a necessary tool in daily lives, and Arrizo5 is able to map the cell phone interface to the in-vehicle display screen for two-way interaction, realising unity of human and car in a real sense.
