Chery Company showcased its new products at the 21st Shanghai Auto Show. Three of the company’s products will soon be launched in the country’s market by automobile executives, so we have taken a look at the specifications of these cars.
Tiggo 9, the largest member of the Tiggo family
The Tiggo 9, the newest member of the Tiggo family, will soon be launched in Iran. This car, which is larger than the Tiggo 8, is set to be launched in two technical types. A 2-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that, with the help of a direct fuel injection system, is capable of producing 250 horsepower and 390 Nm of torque. All this power is transmitted to all four wheels by an 8-speed automatic transmission. According to the company, the combined fuel consumption of the Tiggo 9 with a 2-liter engine is 7.7 liters per 100 kilometers, which is considered a good number for a two-wheel drive vehicle.
The second model is a completely different and powerful car. A 1.5-liter 4-cylinder engine that, together with an electric motor, transmits more than 400 horsepower and about 600 Nm of torque to all four wheels with the help of a new generation of hybrid powertrains (DHT).
Looking at the list of features, we see equipment such as: keyless entry and push-button start, panoramic roof, touchscreen multimedia with 360-degree camera, head-up display, leather seat upholstery, electric front seat adjustment, heated and cooled front seats, driver’s seat massager, 50-watt wireless charger, electric trunk lid, electric parking brake with autohold, front and rear parking sensors, and driving assistants (adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, lane keeping system, blind spot radar, and automatic high beams).

The second Chery crossover is the Tiggo 8 with a new design, known as the Tiggo 8 Plus. In terms of appearance, this car comes with a different grille and bumper than the Tiggo 8 available in Iran. Also, the taillights of this car are now connected, which makes the car look wider than before. Inside the cabin, there is no longer any multimedia and integrated cluster, and these two pieces are installed separately.
Like the Tiggo 9, this car is equipped with two engines. The first version is equipped with a 1.6-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with direct fuel injection, which produces 197 horsepower and 290 Nm of torque at its best. The second engine that can be ordered for this car is the 2-liter TGDI, which transmits a maximum power of 250 horsepower and a maximum torque of 390 to all four wheels with the help of an 8-speed automatic transmission. The suspension system of this car is equipped with independent suspension on both axles, with a McPherson type on the front axle and a multi-link type on the rear.
In terms of features, this car is equipped with a keyless entry system and push-button start, panoramic roof, wireless charger, dual-channel automatic air conditioning system, leather interior trim, touch-screen multimedia with Sony audio system, electric front seat adjustment, heated and cooled front seats, a dash cam, hidden door handles, electrochromic mirror, 360-degree camera, light and rain sensor, LED lights, and driving assistants (adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, lane keeping system, blind spot radar, and automatic high beam). This level of features is suitable for a family car.
