Chinese car maker Chery to launch new premium electric brand Exlantix in Australia in 2027

Chinese car maker Chery Group is expanding its lineup of brands in Australia by bringing its high-end electric sub-brand, Exlantix, to the Australian market in 2027.

At an event we attended in Shanghai over the weekend, the company previewed a right-hand-drive version of a sleek electric shooting brake wagon, which it plans to launch in Australia and New Zealand. A “Shooting brake” is a car that combines the lines of a coupe with the rear end of a conventional wagon.

The latest new was announced by Lilian Xiong, CEO of Exeed and Exlantix International, who said that the brand is currently present in 44 international markets and, by 2030, expects to be in another 41 markets, bringing the total to 85 markets globally.

The “shooting brake” will be known as the 2027 Exlantix ES GT, and is expected to be powered by an electric powertrain as well as a PHEV offering as well, although specific details will be shared closer to the launch.

The ES GT preview vehicle gave us a glimpse of what could be expected on both the styling front and the premium market the brand is aiming for.

The car sits on large wheels with a swooping shooting brake side profile, while the front has a planted and aggressive look. On the inside, there are multiple screens, with a main infotainment screen as well as a full width screen bar with driving and other customisable information sections.

The steering wheel is smaller in size than those found on other SUV models, highlighting that the ES GT is going after a more sporty drive fee;.
