Chery Group Ranks 233rd in Fortune Global 500, Fastest Rising Auto Company

On July 29, the 2025 Fortune Global 500 list was unveiled, and Chery Holding Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as 'Chery Group') made the list again, ranking 233rd, a leap of 152 places from 2024, making it the fastest rising car company of the year. Over 28 years, Chery has transformed from a 'small grass hut' startup to a global player, first entering the Fortune Global 500 at 385th in 2024, marking its metamorphosis from a 'dark horse' to a 'thoroughbred' in 2025, showcasing Chery's 'acceleration'. The reason Chery can turn the impossible into possible and achieve qualitative leaps lies in its commitment to long-termism, laying a solid foundation for becoming a century-old enterprise. Chery’s long-termism focuses on technological breakthroughs, maintaining the 'Technology Chery' leading advantage. The company consistently invests heavily in R&D, focusing on disruptive technologies with over 300 Yaoguang laboratories and partnerships with over 60 global universities for further advancements in electrification, intelligent technologies, and green low-carbon technologies. In the first half of this year, Chery launched a series of innovative technologies through events like 'Smart Night', 'Hybrid Night', and 'Safety Night', demonstrating its confidence and strength in navigating towards high-regulation, high-standard, and premium markets. Chery’s long-termism also emphasizes brand elevation to build a globally beloved world-class brand. The company adheres to quality upgrades and category innovations, using the strictest global testing standards. It is the Chinese automotive brand with the most global 'five-star certifications', with 41 models achieving 'five-star' ratings from C-NCAP, E-NCAP, A-NCAP, and other safety assessments. In J.D. Power's 2024 series of surveys, Chery topped the rankings in three categories: China Initial Quality Study (IQS), Sales Satisfaction Study (SSI), and Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout Study (APEAL), becoming the only domestic brand to achieve a 'triple crown'. In the recently released J.D. Power sales satisfaction ranking for 2025, Chery ranked first among domestic brands once again. Chery’s long-termism extends to market expansion, partnering with global partners for mutual benefit. The company adheres to the 'In somewhere, for somewhere' philosophy, contributing locally in overseas markets. Before 'going out', Chery prepares for local regulations, adaptability, competitiveness, and differentiation. It also explores flexible cooperation models with overseas enterprises and international brands. In a project with Spain's EV MOTORS, Chery revived the beloved local brand EBRO, creating jobs and tax revenue, and garnering praise from the Spanish government and public. Chery’s long-termism involves focusing on high-end ecological chains, creating a symbiotic industrial cluster. The company moves from automobile manufacturing to aftermarket services, material recycling, circular economy, and user ecosystems, developing new businesses such as drone technology, humanoid robots, flying cars, finance, logistics, and trading. Chery has also built platforms for industrial internet, financial services, smart procurement, and user ecosystems, gathering thousands of enterprises to form a resource-sharing, symbiotic economic ecosystem. Chery’s long-termism is also about achieving excellence in management and practicing ESG sustainable development. The company accelerates the construction of agile organizations, integrating ESG concepts into its strategy and operations, receiving certifications such as 'Green Supply Chain Management Enterprise' from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and '5A Green Development Index Enterprise' from China Automotive Data. Chery collaborates with the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) on the 'Cherish Nature' global project and UNICEF on international children's education projects. Chery has been consistently included in Fortune's China ESG Influence List and is the only car company listed in Forbes China's 2024-2025 Sustainable Development Industrial Enterprises list. 'In the face of a time filled with uncertainties, Chery must use long-termism to navigate cycles and become a sustainable century-old enterprise,' said Chery's Chairman Yin Tongyue. China needs not only Fortune Global 500 companies in revenue scale but also World Brand 500 and 100 companies, transitioning from a manufacturing giant to a manufacturing powerhouse and brand powerhouse. As the 'spirit of the small grass hut' forges the explosive power of the 'dark horse' and the resilience and endurance of the 'thoroughbred', Chery is accelerating towards becoming a century-old enterprise and a world-class brand with long-termism as its engine.
