From official sources, the 2027 Chery Arrizo 8 PRO will launch on August 10, with upgrades to exterior and interior, featuring the 8255 chip and Falcon 500 driver assistance system. Reference prices for the current model range from 116,900 to 149,900 yuan. Exterior upgrades include a larger grille with dot-matrix decoration and chrome trim. Minor changes to side and rear, with red brake calipers and smart driving blue lights. The Falcon 500 uses a pure vision solution for urban memory navigation and highway NOA.

The electric Chery J6 will gain a J6T CSH in Indonesia, based on the iCaur 03 EV. Unlike PHEV systems, the 1.5T engine acts solely as a range extender. The rear-wheel-drive version produces 252PS/300Nm—68PS and 80Nm more than the EV—achieving 0-100km/h in 7.9 seconds to a top speed of 160km/h. Range-extended powertrain provides new choice for Indonesian consumers and enriches Chery's local lineup.

Indonesian state-owned automaker Aletra has officially unveiled its second model, the L7 electric MPV, at the 2026 Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS). Positioned below its debut L8, the L7 targets Indonesia's popular entry-level MPV segment, competing against conventional ICE models such as the Toyota Avanza, Honda BR-V, and Mitsubishi Xpander. The launch signals Aletra's strategic push into the mass-market tier, accelerating the adoption of electrified vehicles among mainstream consumers.

Hongqi's Tiangong 08 will launch on August 1, with the 670 Max pre-priced at 199,800 yuan (limited-time 179,800 yuan). Built on the Tiangong pure electric platform and Jiuzhang intelligent platform, it's a mid-to-large 5-seat pure electric SUV. The 670 Max adds exclusive dark night blue color, featuring closed illuminated brand logo and L-shaped LED headlights. Optional 21-inch sport wheels with Pirelli P ZERO E tires, connected taillights with aero spoiler. Dimensions 4,925/1,950/1,680mm, wheelbase 3,000mm.

The main star at GIIAS 2026 is the Coolray—a Geely-badged Proton X50 from Malaysia—with current interior and powertrain but pre-facelift exterior. Price at RM75k-85k is much cheaper than Malaysia's RM89,800-113,300, with comparable specs but no quad pipes. Okavango was also shown, previewing future local entry. The competitive import pricing will reshape Indonesia's SUV market.
