What suspension does the Tiggo 8 use?
2 Answers
The Tiggo 8 uses a MacPherson strut independent suspension at the front and a multi-link independent suspension at the rear. It features a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout. The Tiggo 8 is a mid-size 5-door, 5-seat SUV with body dimensions of 4700mm in length, 1860mm in width, and 1746mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2710mm and a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters. It is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine and a 6-speed manual transmission, delivering a maximum power of 115 kW at 5500 rpm and a peak torque of 230 Nm between 1750 and 4000 rpm.
I've been driving the Tiggo 8 for almost a year now, and it's equipped with a front MacPherson independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension. This combination provides a very comfortable ride in the city, with minimal bumps when going over speed bumps or rough roads, and little shaking inside the car, making it ideal for daily commuting. On the highway, the suspension offers strong support, keeping the body stable without any floating sensation, which makes long-distance driving less tiring. The MacPherson suspension has a simple structure and low maintenance costs—I get it checked every 20,000 kilometers and haven't had any major issues. The multi-link suspension enhances rear seat comfort, so my family doesn't complain about motion sickness when sitting in the back. The only downside is that occasionally, when driving on particularly rough roads, there might be some noise from the rear suspension, but overall, it's durable and a great value for the price. During maintenance, remember to check the shock absorber fluid level to keep it lubricated and extend its lifespan. Compared to the Haval H6, the Tiggo 8's suspension is softer, making it more worry-free to drive.
