Quick Summary

The Chery Tiggo 7 (2025-present) is a mid-size family SUV that represents exceptional value for money. Priced from around £25,000 for the petrol version and £30,000 for the plug-in hybrid, it significantly undercuts mainstream rivals like the Ford Kuga and Peugeot 3008 whilst offering superior standard equipment. The car measures approximately 4.5 metres long with competitive passenger space, a 426-litre boot, and genuinely impressive interior quality that belies its bargain-basement pricing. Both petrol and plug-in hybrid powertrains deliver adequate performance, with the PHEV offering an electric-only range of up to 56 miles.

Whilst the Tiggo 7 doesn't match European or Japanese rivals for engineering polish, driving dynamics, or refinement, it's competent enough across all areas that you won't feel compromised. The petrol engine delivers 145bhp with a 9.4-second 0-62mph time, whilst the PHEV combines a 1.5-litre petrol engine with an electric motor for 201bhp and 8.5 seconds. Both trim levels—Aspire and Summit—come lavishly equipped with features including dual-zone climate control, adaptive cruise control, 360-degree cameras, and wireless smartphone charging. Running costs are reasonable, with the PHEV achieving around 256.8mpg WLTP and the petrol version around 32.7mpg.

Best for: Budget-conscious buyers seeking a spacious family SUV with generous standard equipment, those wanting plug-in hybrid technology at an affordable price, and families prioritising value over premium badge appeal.

Not ideal for: Buyers requiring a large boot, those sensitive to road noise, or drivers seeking the engineering refinement and dynamic handling of established mainstream rivals.

Competitive Position: The Chery Tiggo 7 is a compelling proposition in the mid-size family SUV market, offering outstanding value that significantly undercuts mainstream competitors like the Ford Kuga and Peugeot 3008. Whilst it lacks the engineering polish and dynamic refinement of established European rivals, it delivers competent performance, impressive interior quality, and lavish standard equipment that make it an exceptionally sensible choice for budget-conscious families.
