Chery A13: compact hatchback and sedan — what the buyer needs to know
The Chery A13 is a compact-class Chery model, known as the Fulwin 2 in China and sold under different names in some markets. We look at its body styles and engines, who it suits, and what to watch out for in the used market.
A13 in brief
The A13 is a compact, affordable city car offered as a five-door hatchback and a sedan. It's a straightforward, practical model without complex technology, aimed at the budget segment.
It wasn't widely sold in Europe, so you'll often find cars from other markets. Due to the variety of names used in different countries, it's worth checking the technical specs for the specific car.
Body styles and trims
The hatchback is more practical in the city and has a more spacious boot, while the sedan has a separate boot and suits those who prefer a classic body style.
Trims usually differ in equipment: basic ones have only essential functions, while better-equipped ones offer more comfort systems. You'll need to check the specific trim for the car.
Engines and gearboxes
The A13 most often has a 1.5-litre petrol engine with around 110 hp. It's usually paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox.
Front-wheel drive. Due to its light weight and simple technology, the car isn't a gas-guzzler, but it doesn't stand out for its performance either.
What to check when buying a used A13
Check the body and undercarriage for rust, and also ensure there are no signs of accidents: trust only those cars with a clear history.
Check the engine, gearbox, suspension and brakes. Finding parts and specialists can be more challenging for less common brands.
Verify that the car meets your country's registration requirements and has clear documentation.
