The collaboration between Chery Malaysia and Inokom Corporation which was formalised in May 2023, had led to its first locally assembled models, the Omoda 5 and Tiggo 8 Pro meeting delivery targets by Aug of the same year. Additionally, the assembly of the soon-to-be-launched Tiggo 7 Pro has also begun at the plant while the all-electric Omoda E5 is slated to join the line soon.

In order to meet the increasing demand and capitalise on positive market reception, Chery Malaysia is poised to enhance operations with the introduction of a second assembly line at the Inokom facility. This expansion aims to boost production capacity, improve efficiency, while upholding the highest quality control standards for its products and services.
