Chery Riich R2
The Chery Riich R2 M-MPV was an odd car. It was Chery’s first mini MPV, hence the M-MPV name, where M stands for ‘mini’. It was sold under the Riich brand, which’ other cars were all sedans and hatchbacks. It was a seven seater in name but could hold four adults at best, not even five. The Riich R2 M-MPV was powered by a tiny 1.3 liter four-cylinder petrol engine with an output of 82hp and 114nm, mated to a five-speed manual, sending power to the front wheels. Price in 2007 started at 46.800 yuan and ended at 56.800 yuan, ad that made it one of the cheapest min MPV’s on the market. Sadly that didn’t help the M-MPV very much. It proved unpopular and it was only made for one model year (!), with about 15.000 examples produced.
