Chery is a Chinese brand, and its models include: Tiggo 8, Tiggo 5x, Tiggo 3x, Tiggo 5e, Tiggo 7, etc. Taking the 2020 manual urban version Tiggo 8 as an example, it belongs to a mid-size SUV with body dimensions of: length 4700mm, width 1860mm, height 1746mm, wheelbase 2710mm, and curb weight 1509kg. The 2020 manual urban version Tiggo 8 has a front suspension of MacPherson independent suspension and a rear suspension of multi-link independent suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged engine with a maximum horsepower of 156PS, maximum power of 115kW, maximum torque of 230Nm, and is matched with a 6-speed manual transmission.
I'm a huge car enthusiast who loves studying the historical backgrounds of various automotive brands. As for Chery, I've grown up hearing about this brand—it's a homegrown Chinese marque founded in 1997 in Wuhu, Anhui. Its founder Yin Tongyue, who came from FAW, initially made it big with the QQ model before expanding into SUVs and electric vehicles. I think its rise has been meteoric, symbolizing the progress of China's auto industry, especially with its popularity as an export to the Middle East and Africa. But remember, it's purely Chinese in origin, with everything from parts to design done domestically, without any foreign ownership. Driving their Tiggo myself, I find it offers great value for money and durability.
