The Arrizo 5 is Chery's entry point in the UAE and one of the cheapest new cars on sale here with four doors, an automatic gearbox and a full warranty. It is a 5-seat, front-wheel-drive saloon of the size that was the default family car before everyone moved to crossovers.
How much does the Chery Arrizo 5 cost in the UAE?
The two 2026 trims are separated by barely two thousand dirhams — AED 35,795 for the 1.5L (Comfort) and AED 38,000 for the 1.5L (Luxury) — which is one of the narrowest ladders on any new car sold here. Both use the same 1.5 L petrol engine and the same Automatic gearbox, so what you are choosing between is equipment, never performance.
Which Arrizo 5 trim is the one to buy?
The 1.5L (Luxury), on the simple ground that the difference between them vanishes into a monthly payment while the equipment gap does not. The entry car only makes sense if you are paying cash outright and the headline number matters more to you than the kit inside it.
Chery Arrizo 5 or Hyundai Elantra?
The Arrizo 5 undercuts by a margin no options list closes, and it gives you a full-size boot at 430 litres and a proper rear bench for less than several superminis cost. Buy it if monthly cost is the point. The Hyundai Elantra is the better car — quieter, better resolved, worth more when you sell it — and the Nissan Sentra sits between the two on both counts.
What does an Arrizo 5 cost to run in the UAE?
It is rated at 14.3 Km/L, and on a naturally aspirated 1.5 that tends to be a figure you actually see rather than an optimistic one. Servicing is where a young brand demands attention: get the warranty term and its exclusions in writing, ask what the first three services cost, and check where the approved workshop nearest you is before you sign anything.
Does the Arrizo 5 hold its value, and what should you watch for as it ages?
Better than the badge suggests. It holds about 56% of its value after five years, against roughly 51% for a compact sedan of the same age and mileage here, which makes it one of the stronger performers in Chery's range. Cars reaching CarSwitch for inspection sit at a median of around 65,000 km, so most are still inside the band where wear items are cheap. Check the service book and how the gearbox behaves from cold, and read the inspection report on the specific car.
If the payment is what decides this, price a used one alongside the new car first — the used Arrizo 5 listings are the fairer comparison.
