Chery Automobile
This is the catalogue record of the iCar 03, one of 21 models Chery Automobile has placed in the historical record and one of more than seventeen thousand cars the MotorJury library tracks. The record places its introduction in 2023. The photography on this page is hotlinked from Wikimedia Commons under an open licence, with the photographer credited on every frame.
To read the iCar 03 properly it helps to place it in its decade. The 2020s were the current era, in which battery-electric platforms, software-defined cars and China's rise as the world's largest producer are rewriting a century of industry order. Any car launched into that world was shaped by it — by what materials, engineering and regulation allowed, and by what buyers of the day demanded. Its direct contemporaries in this catalogue, introduced within three years of it, include the Tesla Tesla Cybertruck, the Nissan Nissan Z, the Kia Kia EV6 — the cars a buyer of the period would actually have cross-shopped.
On paper, the iCar 03 reads like this: the record lists its engine as Petrol engine / Petrol range extender: / 1.5 L SQRE4T15C I4 Turbocharger / turbo; quoted output is 137 kW (RWD) / 185 kW (Fulwin X3) / 208 kW (4WD) / 255 kW (Fulwin X3 AWD) / 315 kW (Fulwin X3L); kerb weight is recorded at 1679–1892 kg; the layout is EV: / Rear-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout / Rear motor, rear-wheel-drive / Dual-motor, four-wheel-drive layout / Dual-motors, all-wheel drive / EREV: / Front-engine, rear-wheel-dr. Worked together, those figures give roughly 82 horsepower per tonne — the single number that says more about how a car actually moves than any of its parts alone. Every figure above is a manufacturer specification carried by the Wikipedia infobox or the open Wikidata record for this model — nothing on this page is estimated, and where a source is silent the row simply does not appear.
Within Chery Automobile's own catalogue the iCar 03 sits alongside the Cowin C3, the Cowin X3, the Exeed LX, the Exeed Sterra ES. The record names the successor = as its predecessor and the sp = uk as its successor, fixing its place in the model line's chronology. Assembly is recorded at ubl | China: Wuhu, Anhui | Indonesia: Bekasi, West Java ( ) | Thailand: Rayong (Omoda & Jaecoo Manufacturing (Thailand)) | Malaysia: Shah Alam, Selangor.
This library is generated, verified and rebuilt from the open record on every deploy. The catalogue skeleton comes from Wikidata, specifications from Wikipedia's infoboxes under CC BY-SA, photography from Wikimedia Commons under each file's own licence, and the ownership data from United States federal safety records. Nothing is written by hand and nothing is invented: every fact on this page traces to a public source, and every page is rebuilt nightly as those sources improve. Errors in the source record will appear here too — and disappear the night the source is corrected.
The catalogue records what the iCar 03 was; the ownership database records what it is like to own. MotorJury computes a verdict for every model year the United States federal record covers — complaints, recalls, real economy — refreshed nightly, with no opinions involved. If this car reached the American market, its verdicts are in there.
Specifications come from the Wikipedia infobox for this model (CC BY-SA) and the open Wikidata record, and are shown only where a source actually carries them — nothing here is estimated. Figures are manufacturer specifications, not measured results.
