Chery Arrizo
Arrizo is Chery's main family of sedans, positioned in the compact and mid-size segments to replace and complement the older three-box lineups. The lineage has been offered in several successive models (for example the Arrizo 5, 6 and then 8), with practical and affordable family-sedan silhouettes intended for emerging markets and export rather than for North America. The Arrizo targets customers looking for interior room, a good level of equipment and a contained price for daily urban and highway use. Recent generations have gained in refinement, on-board technology and driver-assistance features. On the tire side, these sedans generally run moderately sized wheels (around 16 to 18 inches), a common format for which all-season and winter tires are easy to find; in the Quebec climate, dedicated winter tires would remain essential on this type of front-wheel-drive vehicle.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Comme la plupart des marques chinoises modernes, la gamme Chery privilégie les VUS, qui chaussent couramment des jantes de 17 à 19 pouces, tandis que les berlines tournent souvent autour de 16 à 18 pouces; l'entraxe fréquent sur les modèles compacts est de type 5x114,3 mm. À titre d'exemple, l'Omoda 5 reçoit des pneus en 215/55 R18 sur jantes de 18 pouces. Sur ces dimensions répandues, l'offre de pneus de remplacement et de jantes est large. Au Québec, des pneus d'hiver homologués (pictogramme montagne-flocon) sont obligatoires; un second jeu monté sur jantes d'acier dans un diamètre courant facilite le changement saisonnier et protège les jantes d'origine du sel et des nids-de-poule.
