Chery Malaysia celebrates Malaysian Paralympic medallists at the Paris 2024 games by giving away Omoda E5 and Omoda 5 SUVs.

Chery Malaysia continues its pledge to support Malaysian athletes by celebrating the success of Malaysian Paralympic medallists at the Paris 2024 games with exclusive vehicle delivery. In a special event held yesterday, Chery successfully delivered the Omoda E5 EV SUV to gold medallist Cheah Liek Hou, while silver medallist Muhammad Ziyad Zolkefli brought home a new Omoda 5 B-SUV for this achievement.

Powerlifting champion and gold medallist Bonnie Bunyau Gustin, who broke the world record during the Paris games, has also booked the Tiggo 8 Pro but was not able to attend the ceremony.

The special ceremony was attended by dignitaries comprising the Paralympic athletes themselves and their respective families, as well as official representatives from the Ministry of Youth and Sports (KBS), including its minister YB Hannah Yeoh, the Paralympic Council of Malaysia, and representatives from Chery Malaysia.

Meanwhile, Chery Malaysia vice president Michael Chew said, “We are delighted to host this exclusive delivery of Chery vehicles to Liek Hou and Ziyad, those who had chosen the Omoda E5 and Omoda 5 as their preferred vehicles.”.
