The Chery J1 is a compact hatchback that marked the Chinese manufacturer’s early entry into the Australian market. Sold locally between 2011 and 2014, the J1 stood out for its low driveaway price, making it one of the most affordable new cars available in Australia during that time.
Powered by a 1.3L petrol engine with a 5-speed manual transmission, the J1 was basic in both features and performance, but offered decent space for its size, a surprisingly roomy boot, and budget-friendly running costs. It appealed mainly to first-time car buyers or those looking for an economical city runabout.
