  • This is the biggest Chery SUV yet.
    It's the Tiggo 8 Pro Max, a 3 row SUV with a focus on value. With pricing starting at just $41,990 driveaway, it certainly delivers on that.
    The are three grades available, and front- or all-wheel drive, too. All versions are powered by a punchy 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine.
    There's a heap of great tech, loads of safety gear, and some impressive stuff inside and out. But there are some things that might annoy you, and others that could rule it out for you and your family.
    So is this 7 seater alternative to the Mahindra XUV700, Nissan X-Trail, Mitsubishi Outlander, Kia Sorento, Toyota Kluger, Skoda Kodiaq, and Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace worth considering...?

    This has been in South Africa for a while now. It is so amazing. Consider the fact that a 7 seat GLB from Mercedes with all these features cost double. I had a GLB for a short while and honestly the Chery has better build and material quality than the Merc. I am so glad these cars exist. It shows how overpriced everything else is and how old car brands are ripping us off. The GLB is nowhere near 2 times the car of this Chery and the Chery is actually better in several ways. Love this car to bits.

    I really enjoy your reviews, Matt, and that you cover so many things relevant to an owner. It's a handsome car and though I'd never use the full seven seats - does anybody? The nearest I've seen is 3 baby seats in an Odyssey many years ago - it offers some airy, comfortable accommodation for 4 or 5 people plus luggage. And I agree about the Mercedes overtones inside. Since you mention warranty, maybe a quick review of the T&Cs might be enlightening: the Outlander for example, with the "10-year" warranty, has only a 12-month cover for the shock absorbers and other things besides them. Clearly, there are warranties, and then there are _warranties._ The Chery seems to offer pretty good coverage in that regard. And though it isn't so frugal as some of its non-Chinese competitors, it offers terrific value for money.

      From the prelim reviews so far (they all remark about the refinement and silence even in ICE mode), the Sea Lion 6 NVH appears class leading. And it's not just road noise sound insulation but engine noise suppression as well. I am buying one no doubt.

    The problem with most of all the Mahindra, and to a lesser extent but still significant; Mitsubishi and Nissan competitors... is their interiors feel like a cheaper older interiors with cheaper older bits tarted up to look like a newer fancier car. Cherry and most of the Chinese brands have significantly nicer and more refined interiors that look and feel like they were initially designed to be as they are. What gives me pause is their drivetrain reliability over the long run....

    • @anasevi9456
      @anasevi9456 13 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      ...Though older Great Wall utes from 10+ years ago seem to hold up well into the six figures of km.... engines have changed a lot since then, and I do have this worry with many newer cars and utes; including some japanese ones these days, Also theres geopolitics, even if companies like Chery want to take care of their customers long term, what if Canberra is ordered by the yanks to get into a tariff spat with China that forces chinese brands out? We need a bigger car for our family, but so many caveats, both real and possible. 😅

    Also, there IS a spot under the floor to store the cargo cover on some versions. Seems this one has other stuff there. Strange. The South African one has a spot for it. You keep saying good for the money, yet it is good period. The faux leather in a Mercedes feels terrible in comparison to the Chery's version. When you talk about the drive, what are you comparing it to? It drives better than the other 7 seat competiton especially the overpriced crappy X Trail with its horrible drony drivetrain.
