Chery Tiggo 8

Summary

The Chery Tiggo 8 is a large seven-seat SUV which is available with either a pure petrol or plug-in hybrid powertrain.

The launch of the Tiggo 8 marks the official UK arrival of motoring giant Chery – which also owns both Omoda and Jaecoo, brands that have landed in the UK with considerable sales success to date.

Arriving in September as a rival to stablemates like the Omoda 9, as well as alternatives from established brands like the Hyundai Santa Fe, Skoda Kodiaq, Peugeot 5008 and Kia Sorento, the Tiggo 8 is yet to be reviewed by the British motoring media. We will give the Chery SUV an Expert Rating score in the coming months as we collect reviews and data on the model.
