Bringing Sandton and Northcliff into one Chery website
Chery Digicars brings the Sandton and Northcliff dealerships together in one public website. A visitor can begin with the Chery range, move into the available vehicle stock and find the location they want to contact. We built it as part of the Digicars Group platform, with one central publishing foundation behind a recognisably Chery customer experience.
The public website and its main journeys
The homepage combines dealership video, model-led imagery and routes into the range. The model collection gives the Tiggo family a consistent presentation, while the contact page separates Sandton and Northcliff into distinct location blocks. Each has its own map and contact information. That matters on a website representing more than one dealership: the visitor needs to understand the offer and then identify the right place to continue the conversation.
The stock page has a different job from the model collection. Its vehicle cards carry the information for individual vehicles, with filters alongside the results. The capture shows a wider stock presentation within the group environment, while the model pages remain the place to explore the Chery range. These are two connected browsing paths with different content requirements.
Model pages within a common publishing system
The useful distinction in this project is between a shared Chery brand presence and location-specific dealership information. The frontend can bring the range together, while the contact journey gives visitors a clear choice of location. Behind that presentation, publishing, stock and enquiries connect to the same group infrastructure.
Standardising the model pages was one of the largest challenges across the Digicars Group programme. Different brands had to work within a common system for managing and presenting their model content. The aim was to make that content maintainable across the estate while allowing the public websites to retain their own brand presentation.
Inside the Chery Q model page
The Chery Q capture takes the gallery beyond the model directory and into an individual vehicle presentation. The page gives the model its own opening and more space for supporting imagery and information. It shows the next level of the browsing journey after a visitor has identified a model in the range.
This is the page type at the centre of the group’s model-content work. A directory can provide a consistent set of entry points; the individual page has to accommodate the actual model presentation within the shared publishing system. Including it alongside the homepage, range and stock views gives a fuller account of what the website delivers.
Content and stock behind the frontend
WordPress serves as the central backend for content, stock and lead management. Our custom PHP library renders the public frontend into static HTML. Bootstrap and the shared design system provide the frontend foundation, with PHP handling the forms and their connection to the lead interceptor.
The group also needed to accommodate stock feeds from different dealer-management systems. Integrating those feeds was the other major technical challenge in the programme. The vehicle listings in this gallery show the public side of that work: individual vehicle content presented through a consistent website structure. The Digicars Group platform project explains the shared architecture in more detail.
A website enquiry inside a wider lead process
The site’s forms connect to the interceptor system. It gives the group one endpoint for website, QR, social, paid-media and manually captured leads, then pushes leads to the relevant lead-management, CRM and dealer-management destinations in real time. The downstream systems can be configured for each dealership.
That makes the website part of a wider enquiry process. A visitor sees a local dealership experience, while the group can connect that enquiry to the systems the dealership uses. The shared endpoint supports leads arriving through other channels as well as those originating on the website.
Ongoing copywriting and maintenance
Chery Digicars receives monthly SEO copywriting and a full website maintenance plan. The relationship continues after the initial build, supporting the public site and its content as the dealership uses it for organic acquisition and paid-media landing journeys.
That arrangement is part of the delivered scope for this website. It gives the project an ongoing content and maintenance component alongside the shared platform and integrations. The HeyCarter sites have their own once-off build and model-page maintenance arrangement.
Launch performance and the site’s business role
The group rollout began in November 2026 with nine brands and has continued in phases. We targeted and achieved 100 in performance, accessibility, best practices and SEO in Lighthouse at launch. Across the dealership websites, organic enquiries make a substantial contribution to the business, and the sites also serve as landing destinations for a large paid-media strategy.
For Chery Digicars, the public work is best understood through that connected role: brand presentation, model content, stock discovery and a route into dealership enquiries. The gallery includes desktop and mobile homepage views, the model collection, an individual model page, vehicle stock and contact page. The project cover presents the real website in a desktop and phone mockup.
