CHERY TIGGO 9 PHEV – SUPER IN NAME ONLY ELITE

  By , , ,

  Let’s get something straight. Wheels magazine (is it still a magazine?) may have recognised the Chery Tiggo 9 as Australia’s best value large SUV. But they’re talking about the top of the range Ultimate model, not the entry Elite which is the one most punters will end up buying at this end of the market. And the Elite is a quite different beast, front-wheel drive, with a smaller battery, less powerful drivetrain, less electric only range and of course less equipment. But it costs less and it still seats… Read more

TIGGO 9 PLUG-IN PARTNER TAKES TO ‘SUPER HIGHWAY’

  By , ,

Australians went from buying an electric vehicle – hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or full electric – once every 50 minutes four years ago to once every three minutes in April, according to Aussie Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen. Needless to say, there’s a lot going on, with manufacturers, especially those from China, having a field day. Chery, one of the biggest, not satisfied with standard petro/electric hybrid performance has extended its super highway’ journey, adding to its rapidly expanding Tiggo range with a top-of-the-range CSH (for Chery Super Hybrid) ‘9’ model….

SUPER HYBRID CHERY ON TOP

  By , ,

The Chinese continue to carve off a sizable slice of the automobile cake worldwide, and with Chery on top, it’s hard to see this changing anytime soon. Last month the company claimed 3305-unit sales, putting it in the top ten Down Under. Now the fastest growing brand in Australia, Chery has done this on the back of the success of the Tiggo 4 and 7 SUVs, recently joined by the Tiggo 8 Super Hybrid, capable of travelling up to 1200 kilometres on one tank of fuel and a single charge….

CHERY TIGGO 8 PRO MAX ULTIMATE

  By ,

It’s a mouthful, that’s what it is. The Chery Tiggo 8 Pro Max Ultimate is a large, seven-seat SUV, sitting at the top of a rapidly expanding lineup. That lineup now numbers six SUVs including the smaller Tiggo 4 and Tiggo 7 — plus a fully electric EV. Tiggo 8 is petrol-powered, comes in three grades and is well equipped for the price, but has plenty of competitors in this segment — so due diligence is required. STYLING The Tiggo 8’s styling is contemporary but somewhat generic. There are three… Read more

MCDONALDS PUTS A CHERY ON TOP

  By ,

Chinese carmaker Chery has come up with a very clever marketing ploy by partnering with McDonalds in the fast-food chain’s November sales campaign where the major prize is a new Tiggo 4 Pro. So, every time you see a Maccas television commercial – and there are squillions of them – the Chery name gets the sort of exposure that emerging brands can only dream about. Without knowing the numbers, it’s fair to assume that a large percentage of people who see the ads have never heard of Chery as a… Read more

CHERY TIGGO MID-SIZED SUV BREAKS THOUGH THE $40k DRIVEAWAY BARRIER

  By ,

Hot on the heels of the arrival of its Omodo 5 compact SUV, Chery Australia has provided pricing and specification details for a second, slightly larger, five-seat SUV, called the Tiggo 7 Pro. Apart from a very forgettable period between 2011 and 2017 when it tried to sell a small J- series hatchback Chery is all but unknown here. That’s certainly not the case elsewhere in the world because, although its only China’s ninth-largest auto maker, it is the country’s largest exporter of passenger vehicles including more than three million… Read more
