Mamelodi Sundowns Announce Chery South Africa as New Official Vehicle Partner

Just days after sealing their eighth consecutive Betway Premiership title, Sundowns FC announced Chery South Africa as their new Official Vehicle Partner, replacing Hyundai in a high-profile commercial move.

The partnership was officially unveiled on Friday, following Sundowns’ dominant 3-0 win over Chippa United, which clinched the title.

A Strategic Alliance

Under the deal, Chery will supply a fleet of SUVs to support Sundowns in team travel, community outreach programs, and day-to-day operations.

"Mamelodi Sundowns is one of South Africa’s most decorated clubs with a proud history spanning over five decades. We’re thrilled to welcome Chery to the Sundowns family," the club said in an official statement.

Chery South Africa CEO Tony Liu added:

"This partnership reflects our commitment to sports development and making a lasting impact in South Africa."

Ubuntu in Motion

Club chairman Tlhopie Motsepe emphasized the cultural fit:

"We follow the philosophy of Ubuntu — our success belongs to our supporters and communities. With Chery, we share a people-first vision and an ambitious drive. Together, we’ll uplift South Africans and push boundaries."

Fan Celebration & Trophy Lift

To celebrate the partnership, one lucky fan attending Sunday’s final league game vs Magest FC at Loftus Versfeld (17:30 kickoff) will win a brand-new Chery Tiggo 4 Pro.

Sundowns will also officially lift their 15th PSL title, reinforcing their place as South Africa’s most dominant modern-era football club.

Eyes on Continental and Global Glory

The announcement comes at a critical juncture, with Sundowns preparing for:

• The CAF Champions League final vs Pyramids FC
• The FIFA Club World Cup in the USA

With commercial momentum now matching their on-field excellence, Sundowns are closing out a truly historic season in style.
