Karry K60
While Cowin is aimed at the younger car buyers in second and third tier cities, looking for affordable and somewhat trendy cars as their first automobile purchase, Karry is Chery’s brand for commercial vans, which rather confusingly has also entered the passenger car market recently. First with the K50 MPV and now with the K60 MPV, although they’re trying to market it as an SUV. The K60 is available in 5, 6 or 7 seat configurations. Power comes from the same 1,5-liter four-cylinder engine, pumping out 109hp and 140Nm, mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and front-wheel drive only. Since it is only a rebadge job, the dimensions are exactly the same as those of the Cowin V3: 4.606/1.790/1.750mm, with a 2.765mm wheelbase. Prices start at 58.800 yuan (€ 8.100,- / US$8,500) and end at 77.800 yuan, which is another 6% less than the already incredibly cheap Cowin V3.
