When choosing a first-generation Chery Arrizo 5 sedan, pay attention to the engine and transmission combination. Finding a version that suits your daily journeys matters more than choosing by the model name alone.
The 1.6 MT is one example of a Chery Arrizo 5 powertrain, combining a gasoline engine, manual transmission and front-wheel drive. You operate the clutch and select the gears, while power goes to the front wheels. Frequent stops in traffic mean more clutch use and gear changes.
