What is the maximum speed of the Tiggo 8?
3 Answers
Tiggo 8 can reach a maximum speed of 190 mph on the highway. Introduction to the exterior of Tiggo 8: The Tiggo 8 offers a spacious interior that surpasses that of joint-venture compact SUVs, and its exterior design is quite imposing. It is not only affordable and spacious but also fuel-efficient. The side profile looks increasingly youthful, with dimensions reaching 4700/1860/1746 mm and a wheelbase of 2710 mm, making it a standard mid-size SUV. The rear features a popular full-width LED taillight design that enhances the horizontal visual effect. The taillights incorporate a patterned LED design, adding a touch of sophistication and elevating the vehicle's perceived premium feel. Introduction to the interior of Tiggo 8: The interior of the new Tiggo 8 has undergone a dramatic transformation compared to the old model, adopting the trendy floating central control screen design, which significantly improves both mainstream appeal and a sense of premium quality. The use of piano black trim and chrome accents is also well-balanced, making the new Tiggo 8's interior more dynamic compared to the previous model.
I previously drove the Tiggo 8 on the highway, the 1.6T version could reach just over 200 km/h when flooring the throttle, and the body remained very stable. However, the 2.0T version is more powerful, with some car owners testing it to exceed 210 km/h. But honestly, the speed limit on domestic highways is 120 km/h, so there's no need to pursue such speeds—safe driving is the key. The transmission is a dual-clutch, which offers high shift efficiency at high RPMs, and the electronic system will automatically cut fuel to protect the engine. You also need high-speed tires; the one I drove had 235/55 R18 Giti tires.
The Tiggo 8 has been driven at home for over three years, with several long-distance trips. The 1.5T manual version couldn't exceed 190 km/h when the throttle was fully pressed, and the body started to feel unstable. The 2.0T automatic version was tested in the uninhabited area of Xinjiang, showing 210 km/h on the dashboard but actually 203 km/h according to GPS. It's important to note that the factory-fitted all-season tires have a speed limit mostly around 210 km/h, and exceeding this speed significantly increases tire load. In fact, the car's ACC adaptive cruise is most fuel-efficient at 120 km/h, and becomes more fuel-consuming beyond that speed.
