Chery Tiggo 7 CSH

The Chery Tiggo 7 CSH is the plug-in hybrid version of the Tiggo 7 sport utility vehicle, sold by Chery under its Super Hybrid name.

Powertrain

The plug-in version pairs a 1,499 cc petrol engine, rated at 105 kW and 215 N·m, with an electric drive system and an 18.3 kWh battery. The plain petrol Tiggo 7 uses a different engine of 1,598 cc with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, so the two should not be mixed up when reading the figures.

Range and charging

Chery quotes an electric range of 90 km on the WLTC cycle for the plug-in model, and a combined range of 1,200 km with the engine running. Combined fuel consumption is given as 2.4 litres per 100 km. On a home or public AC charger at 6.6 kW, a full charge from empty is stated as 100 minutes. DC fast charging is available at up to 40 kW, and the page gives 20 minutes for a charge from 30 to 80 percent.

Driver assistance and safety

The listed driver aids are autonomous emergency braking, blind spot detection, emergency lane keeping and an integrated cruise function that combines adaptive cruise with lane centring. The page mentions up to eight airbags, with the hybrid version capped at seven.

Not stated

The page does not give a price, warranty terms, over-the-air update support or a companion app. Several numbers on the page are unfilled template values, and Chery notes that final specifications follow the models released in each region.
