“The addition of the DCT reflects our commitment to customer feedback and our focus on delivering what our users want. We listened to our Tiggo 4 Pro owners and designed this new model to meet their requests for a sportier driving experience and better fuel efficiency.” – Mark Ma, Assistant General Manager of Chery South Africa.

With that in mind, Chery managed to improve fuel consumption by nearly half a litre per 100 km during testing. On South African roads, the DCT proved capable of saving as much as 1.6 L/100 km, depending on driving style and road conditions.

Chery is also working on improvements for current Tiggo 4 Pro owners which includes a new software update for the CVT model currently in testing phase. The Chinese automaker claims this will also improve fuel efficiency on the powertrain and intends to roll the update out soon.

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.
