The Lepas will officially debut in South Africa in 2026, introducing a different perspective on what a premium SUV can be with an eye aimed at younger, style-conscious drivers seeking modernity, claims the Chinese brand.
To lead the roll-out of the Lepas in South Africa, Chery South Africa has appointed Letitia Herold as National Brand & Marketing Manager.
She brings experience from across the automotive and media industries and will oversee the local launch strategy, partnerships and market engagement for Lepas, aligning the brand with its target market.
“I am honoured to have been chosen to build the LEPAS brand in South Africa,” comments Letitia. “We are speaking to a generation that wants more than just a car, they want an experience that reflects who they are.
The LEPAS L8, which debuted earlier this year, sets a bold tone, with sculpted exterior lines, a spacious interior and the latest driver-assist technologies that can be expected in a premium SUV.
The Lepas will expand its offering across multiple segments, growing a versatile lifestyle suited to everything from family life to executive living, it claims.
The name Lepas blends “leap” and “passion,” reflecting a brand built on movement and vitality.

Renault Group says it will change the way it accounts for its stake in its alliance partner for 20 years, Nissan, after earlier reports that the French automaker’s share price could take a hit.
It is believed that Nissan Motor has asked some suppliers to allow it to delay payments to free up short-term funds as the troubled Japanese automaker scrambles to boost cash.

I always do like seeing other people dance in their cars. It's one of the things that makes me happy.
