The pint-sized three cylinder 812cc Chery QQ has been in production since 2003 in China, along with a 1.1-litre version - the latter currently not available here.
The QQ has immediately cemented its reputation as the most affordable new car in Singapore with a price tag of $30,000. Its immediate competitors are the 1.0-litre Perodua Kelisa and the 1.1-litre Kia Picanto.
Only a five-speed manual Chery QQ is currently available, although an auto version is expected.
For its price the QQ is well equipped with one-touch power windows that close globally, power steering, power mirrors, rev counter, remote central locking, a CD and MP3 player, plus front and rear fog lights. But we wonder how well the QQ will fair after a year or so of daily driving? You can't ignore the lure of the opposition for just $3,000 more. Both the Kelisa and the Picanto offer a more planted small car driving experience and a good level of build quality for not an awful lot more. Cheapness is not always a virtue if the entire package is compromised. In the Chery QQ brochure there is, worryingly, a picture of a man standing in the pouring rain with the Chery sitting motionless behind him. We know how he feels. Perhaps QQ is an acronym for Questionable Quality.
