Chery Stockman pricing is out, and the range starts at the $52,990 Urban. Not only does it start with this unbelievably low price, it’s the only plug-in hybrid ute with a diesel engine.
The flagship Stockman Ultimate is $57,990, with both Super Hybrids having a 350kW/800Nm 2.5-litre turbo-diesel plug-in hybrid driveline. This is something no legacy maker has, and it only highlights a widening technology gap.
Chery previously opened Stockman reservations with a Bunnings card offer as a tasty teaser of the Premcar tuned ute. Deliveries are set to start on the 1st of February 2027.
A Diesel Plug-in Ute
Stockman has an 80-litre diesel tank, and an electric range of 96km WLTP from its 34kWh LFP pack.

ABOVE: The 2026 Chery Stockman
With 800Nm it is 100Nm more than Shark 6 and 200Nm more than Ranger’s V6 diesel. Braked towing is 3,495kg, but like every ute’s tow rating, it falls apart once GVM and GCM are considered with a loaded cab and tub.
What $52,990 Includes
Urban will have 6, highway-terrain tyres, 235mm of ground clearance, and centre and rear diff locks. Ultimate’s full equipment revealed soon.
How the Price Compares
Urban is $4,910 cheaper than the ever popular Shark 6 Premium. Japanese diesel dual-cabs, from Mitsubishi’s Triton GLS to Toyota’s HiLux SR5 auto, all start above $60,000, with Nissan’s Navara now being a rebadged Triton. Of the diesels, only Kia’s slow-selling Tasman S is cheaper.
Chery Stockman and the Flood of Chinese Utes
Stockman is one of the 12 new Chinese utes on sale since November 2024 (or due before 2028). The majority of the ute segment are diesels or petrol plug-ins, but the next diesel plug-in is Chery ‘s Jetour’s F700 due late 2027.
The last few years saw over 70 new Chinese models go on sale with 43 of them SUVs. Of those models , 12 brands are new to the market, including Deepal, GAC, Denza, Lepas and iCAUR, with 5 more confirmed. Chery returned in 2023, and Geely and JMC are back too.
