Ray Chapman Motors will represent Chery in York. For more than five decades, Ray Chapman Motors has operated solely as a Volvo dealer.
The newly redeveloped, state-of-the-art showroom will open on Malton Road, Huntington, in York at the end of January 2026.
Duncan Chapman, Managing Director of Ray Chapman Motors, said: “For over five and a half decades, Ray Chapman Motors has been synonymous with quality, trust and exceptional customer service, anchored by our long-standing partnership with Volvo.
“The acquisition of the Chery franchise represents a significant and exciting new chapter for our business — one which enhances and complements our Volvo operation. Chery is a brand defined by innovation, performance and exceptional pricing — qualities that we know will resonate strongly with customers across Yorkshire.
“With the Tiggo 7, Tiggo 8 and Tiggo 9 offering outstanding specifications for the money, we expect considerable demand from day one. We look forward to welcoming customers to our brand-new, dedicated Chery facility in York in early 2026.”
The new facility, previously a D & J Woodcock Garage Services site, will feature a modern brand-focused exterior and a six-car showroom.
Customers will be able to book appointments and place orders from 2 January prior to the showroom launch.
