Chery is expanding in the UK with a range of value-focused SUVs. One of the most interesting is the Tiggo 7 Summit PHEV, which combines plug-in hybrid running with the size and practicality many families want.

Key highlights

  • Plug-in hybrid (PHEV) setup, designed for short trips on electric power with petrol backup for longer journeys
  • Claimed up to 56 miles of electric driving
  • Claimed over 700 miles total range when fully fuelled and charged
  • 150kW system output and 365Nm torque
  • Claimed 0 to 62mph in 8.5 seconds
  • 7-year / 100,000-mile warranty

Practicality for everyday life

The Tiggo 7 sits in the popular mid-size SUV class, so it should feel easy to live with. The plug-in hybrid version does sacrifice some boot space compared to the petrol model, yet it still offers a practical load area for weekly shops, pushchairs and family bags.

Why it could suit business drivers

If you are looking at a company car, plug-in hybrids can be worth considering because Benefit in Kind can be lower than a similar petrol SUV, depending on the model’s CO₂ figures and your tax band. If you can charge at home or work, you also have the chance to do a chunk of your driving on electric power.
