What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the Tiggo 8?
3 Answers
According to official data, the Tiggo 8 is available in three engine displacements: 1.5T, 1.6T, and 2.0T. The 1.5T model accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 10.5 seconds, the 1.6T model in 9.22 seconds, and the 2.0T model in 7.5 seconds. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in simple terms, represents how much force is available. The greater the torque, the more force is available to propel the vehicle, resulting in faster acceleration. The Tiggo 8 1.5T has a maximum torque of 290 N·m, achieving 0-100 km/h in 10.5 seconds. In comparison, the Haval H6 has a torque of 210 N·m, with a 0-100 km/h time of 9.7 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission acts as a medium for power delivery, inevitably involving power loss. Higher transmission efficiency leads to better acceleration performance. Generally, the ranking of transmission efficiency is as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The Tiggo 8 is equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is referred to as the power-to-weight ratio (unit: Hp/T). A higher power-to-weight ratio results in faster acceleration. The Tiggo 8 1.6T has a power-to-weight ratio of 127.59 Hp/T, achieving 0-100 km/h in 9.22 seconds. The Haval H6 has a power-to-weight ratio of 89.55 Hp/T, with a 0-100 km/h time of 9.7 seconds.
I previously drove a Tiggo 8. As a regular SUV, its 0-100 km/h acceleration generally falls between 10 to 11 seconds, depending on the engine variant. For the standard 1.6T version, actual testing showed around 10.7 seconds. The start is quite smooth, without the sudden surge you'd get in a sports car. This vehicle prioritizes practicality and family trips—it handles cargo and kids with ease, offering smooth acceleration without expecting thrilling G-forces. For daily driving, I find this speed just right—safe, effortless, and fuel-efficient. I recommend the automatic transmission for smoother gear shifts and more seamless acceleration, making it ideal for beginners or drivers who prefer stability.
I've been driving the Tiggo 8 for quite a while now, with a measured 0-100 km/h acceleration time of around 10.7 seconds, which is pretty standard for an SUV. Personally, I find its takeoff neither sluggish nor aggressive, making it more suitable for daily commuting. The 1.6T turbocharged engine delivers stable power output, performing well both in city driving and on highways. I've compared it with other vehicles in the same segment, like the Haval H6, which also has an acceleration time in the 10-second range. The Tiggo 8 is designed more for family use, offering a comfortable and fatigue-free driving experience. However, the vehicle's weight has a significant impact; when fully loaded, it might be half a second slower, so it's best to avoid carrying excessively heavy luggage. Regular engine maintenance is recommended to keep it performing at its best.
