The car interior is made in light colors thatattracts attention, however, as the owners of Chery QQ6 note in the reviews, this decision is impractical, since the interior decoration is too marquee. There are certain claims to the quality of materials and assembly - there are gaps and rare creaks. Free space in the cabin is not enough: if the front passenger can still fit comfortably, then it is already difficult to do it in the back seat. The driver's seat has a six-band setting, so it can be customized to suit your individual needs.
Unusual teardrop shaped dashboardattracts the eye. The informativeness of the instruments is high, despite the fact that their scales are superimposed on each other, which does not prevent their readability, as one might fear. The baggage compartment of Chery QQ6 is quite roomy: its volume is 500 liters.

Judging by the reviews of Chery QQ6, the suspension isat the same time the dignity and lack of the car: its comfortable softness turns into a minimum load capacity - only 270 kilograms. Actually, when transporting four passengers at once, you can forget about placing any things in the luggage compartment. Overloading the car can result in tire wear on bends on wheel arches and rapid wear of the running gear.
Claims are available to the transmission system and levers:regardless of the speed of transmission it is necessary to catch literally. The brake pedal is too tight, however it's worth noting that the braking system itself is effective: if necessary, the Chery QQ6 quickly stops. The steering wheel rotates easily and quickly, but there is practically no information and feedback from the hydraulic steering.
Actually, most of the shortcomings of Chery QQ6pale against the background of value. The car was offered on the Russian market in two trim levels - Lux 1.1L and Lux 1.3L - at a minimum price of 270 and 290 thousand rubles, respectively.
