The Chery Tiggo Cross SUV arrived towards the end of 2024 without too much hype. Slotting in between the Tiggo 4 Pro and Tiggo 7 Pro, the Cross didnt offer anything new in terms of power.
By that took a dramatic change this year after the Chinese carmaker introduced hybrid derivatives its calls Chery Super Hybrid CSH to the line-up. And they made no secret that they are going straight for the jugular of South Africas top-selling new energy vehicle, the Toyota Corolla Cross HEV.
Chery Tiggo Cross packs a punchIt not only undercuts the Corolla Cross in terms of price, but also knocks it out of the park performance-wise. The Cherys 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine combined with a battery pack and electric motor produces 150kW of power and 310Nm of torque. This is a power bump of 42kW/110Nm from the non-hybrid 108kW/200Nm Tiggo Cross.
