Chery and Fiat announce new vehicle model updates

Chery is reviving the Arrizo 7 nameplate with a new fastback sedan design. The model, which was discontinued in the Chinese market in 2018, is scheduled for an official presentation on August 21 at the Chengdu Auto Show. The new generation features a sophisticated silhouette and a front-end design with LED headlights and a wide grille that draws visual comparisons to recent Audi models.

In Brazil, Fiat is restructuring its Fastback lineup for the 2027 model year. The company has introduced the Smart Drive version as a standalone trim to accommodate high demand for previously optional equipment. Additionally, Fiat is reviving the BlackMotion special series, which focuses on aesthetic upgrades such as a bicolor roof, blacked-out logos, and 17-inch gloss black wheels. The lineup continues to include mild-hybrid options and the high-performance Abarth version.
