Chery QQ Ice Cream: a small electric city car

The Chery QQ Ice Cream is a tiny electric city car from China, introduced around 2022. In this article, we look at who it's for, what it's capable of, and what to check before buying.

QQ Ice Cream in brief

The QQ Ice Cream is a micro-class electric car with a striking, playful design. It's suited to short city journeys, parking in tight spots, and low running costs.

It's a very small car with a modest boot capacity. In Lithuania, it's quite rare, with real-world choices mostly limited to imported examples.

Versions and batteries

The manufacturer offered several versions, differing in battery capacity and range. Real-world range heavily depends on weather conditions and driving style.

In winter, when the cabin is heated, range significantly drops, so before buying, realistically assess your daily commute.

Electric drivetrain and charging

The car has a low-power electric motor and a small-capacity battery, so performance and acceleration are modest. It's suited to city driving, not motorways.

Charging can be done from a household socket or a charging cable, with fast-charging capability depending on the specific version. Before buying, check the type of connectors.

What to check when buying a used QQ Ice Cream

Firstly, the battery condition: ask for a report or test to see how far it really goes from a full charge. Check that the charging socket and cable work.

Since the car has been used in the city, check the running gear and bodywork. Make sure there are spare parts available and that it can be registered in Lithuania.
