Chery enlists suspension specialists Premcar to test Stockman ahead of launch
Words: Andrew Sluys
Chery Australia has announced Premcar will be undertaking in-market testing and validation of the all-new Chery Stockman ute.
Known for its work with Nissan and the Navara ute, Premcar knows how to dial in a suspension system for Australian conditions.
According to Chery, the testing program will include on and off-road assessments, and “will ensure the Stockman delivers Chery’s ride and handling attributes.”
The brand recognises that Australia has some of the toughest conditions for ute development.
Lucas Harris, Chief Operating Officer, Chery Motor Australia, said partnering with Premcar demonstrates Chery’s commitment to delivering a ute designed to meet local expectations.
“Australia is one of the world’s most demanding ute markets, and we know our customers expect a vehicle that performs confidently across everything from urban streets to highways, construction sites and remote off-road tracks.”
“Premcar has an outstanding reputation for engineering and vehicle validation, making them the ideal partner to help ensure Stockman is thoroughly tested and validated for Australian conditions before it reaches our customers.”
“This partnership is another example of Chery investing locally to develop vehicles specifically for Australian drivers.”
“Chery has gone the extra mile with its first-ever Stockman ute,” said Bernie Quinn, CEO of Premcar.
“Chery has created very specific attributes for the Stockman’s ride and handling and we are very pleased to help them test and validate their work in a variety of Australian conditions.”
