Updated Chery Tiggo 8 Pro and Tiggo 8 Pro MAX Break Cover – Pricing

Chery South Africa has just introduced enhanced versions of the Tiggo 8 Pro and Tiggo 8 Pro MAX, featuring a host of added features, upgraded aesthetics, and a completely revamped interior. Here’s all you need to know about the new models, including pricing.

Tiggo 8 Pro Max

The upgraded model showcases a fresh grille with an illuminated Chery logo as its focal point. The grille’s design, resembling a “galaxy full of stars,” is a reinterpretation seen across all Tiggo Pro models, tapering to a point above the logo. The 2023 Pro and Pro MAX models exhibit an evolved exterior, building upon the acclaimed Tiggo 8 Pro design. Noteworthy features like the trio of waistlines spanning from front to rear lights, the panoramic glass roof, diamond-cut dark alloy wheels, and bold wheel arches remain unchanged.

Stepping inside the Flagship variant reveals a completely revamped interior. The previous Tiggo 8 Pro’s dual-cluster design has been replaced by two interconnected 12,35-inch screens, forming a seamless 24,7-inch digital display. The dashboard and doors have also undergone a redesign, boasting soft-touch leather, wood grain patterns, and silver finishing akin to the climate control, electric windows, and electric seat buttons.

Addressing user feedback, the Tiggo 8 Pro MY2023 now boasts black leather upholstery, while the Tiggo 8 Pro MAX MY2023 offers plush, dark chocolate brown leather seats with heated and cooled front seats. Both models feature a “boss button” seat, enabling rear occupants to adjust the passenger seat.

Under the hood, Chery has retained what has come before. The Tiggo 8 Pro houses Chery’s acclaimed 1.6 TGDI engine, delivering 145 kW at 5 500 r/min and a 290 N.m across 2 000 r/min to 4 400 r/min. Power is channelled through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission to the front wheels.

Opting for the top-tier Tiggo 8 Pro MAX provides access to Chery’s advanced 2.0-liter TDGI engine. This flagship powerplant harnesses Chery’s latest proprietary engine technologies, delivering 187 kW at 5 500 r/min and 390 N.m between 2 000 r/min and 4 000 r/min. The engine is paired with the same seven-speed DCT gearbox, transmitting power to the front wheels.

Here’s How much the Updated Chery Tiggo 8 Pro models will cost:

  • Tiggo 8 Pro 1.6T Executive – R609 900
  • Tiggo 8 Pro MAX 2.0T Executive – R669 900

“The Chery Tiggo 8 Pro is not only our flagship model in terms of luxury and performance, but it is also our top-performing model globally. As such it accounts for a significant part of Chery’s global growth,” says Tony Liu, Executive Deputy General Manager of Chery South Africa.

The Tiggo 8 Pro MAX has also been chosen as the official presidential vehicle partner for the BRICS summit that takes place in Johannesburg later this month. The event will see the heads of 52 countries and senior delegates from United Nations entities such as the World Trade Organisation and World Health Organisation attend.

Topical tips on buying used – Chapter 1

Image
Buying a used car can be harrowing, whether privately or from a dealer. Here are some tips, as well as some things to watch out for. Beware of low mileages, especially on smaller or cheaper cars. It is always possible that the odometer has been turned back. Some things to bear in mind are:- diesels are often bought because they the driver needs to undertake long trips without consuming vast amounts of fuel. This could be a sales rep, or someone travelling large distances to work, lots of lengthy trip for family holidays, etc. So, usually higher mileages than normal. An expensive or luxury car may not see much time on the road, but very seldom a “workhorse”. This makes the executive cars likely to have a lot more life left than the overworked and abused hatchback. These also spend most of their life in a home garage or undercover parking lot at work.
