Chery is developing an upcoming diesel plug-in hybrid mid-size pickup truck that is currently unnamed, but is known as "KP31" which is its internal codename. Once it enters production and goes on sale, it will become the first mass-produced diesel plug-in hybrid pickup truck.
Overview
The tentatively named KP31 was previewed by the Rely P3X concept first showed at the Chengdu Auto Show on 2 September, 2025. It was the first concept to be revealed under the Rely brand.[2] The KP31 is a double-cab pickup truck using a ladder frame chassis and is also the first model to use the Kaitan Architecture.[3]
A near-production model was revealed in Australia on 23 February 2026.[4] In March 2026, Chery announced a competition for Australians to name the vehicle, starting on 12 March at 12:00p.m. Australian Eastern Daylight Saving Time (UTC+11:00), and closing at 11:50p.m. AEDT on 26 March, with the winner to receive the first unit shipped to Australia.[5]
