As a Chinese, I was quite surprised to see Chery seems like doing a very good job offshore, since now China's domestic market are quite dominated by Chinese EVs and Hybrids with more intelligent cabin, so I went to dig a little bit, holy molly, they exported 100% more than domestic sales.
@@dr.andersonsghost4315Chery is one of those legacy makers who compete with foreign brand. They can not really compete with Japanese brands for now on petro cars so… not really hot in domestic market
My friends have theirs for almost a year now and 40,000kms. They drive a lot. It has been amazing. Not a single issue or recall issue. Whereas my family had a Toyota that's on its second recall item and that cut out once due to faulty fuel sender units. The Tiggo 8 is my favourite car at the moment.
The legacy manufacturers must be shitting themselves. Great review. Looks like a combination of an Audi and Toyota. It would be perfect if they added a plug in hybrid option.
Love the review. Given that now we are getting more and more Chinese branded car, would love to have you guys review/address the after sale service and the long term servicablity even in the case the brand pull out of Australia. Of course it's hard to say, but with your inside knowledge and relationship with these brands, hopefully we can get some assurance. Because if these Chinese brands can overcome this final point, I dont see they have any competitor.
This is a key point that is being overlooked in these reviews. It's left to the potential customer as a nasty suprise if there aren't local service centres or availability of spares. Even transmission fluid is difficult to find for some of these new brands. Time will tell if things improve (they usually do).

I’m considering upgrading from my 2021 VW T-Cross and have looked at both the Toyota Fortuner 2.4 GD-6 4X4 AT and the Tiggo 8 Pro Max Executive 7DCT 2.0TDGI AWD MY23. While both seem like great options, I’m curious to hear your thoughts. Which one would you recommend between the two? And by the way I loved this review and might’ve just added extra points to the Cherry.
@@aarons6935 I’ve seen the purple at the dealer and it’s not as purple as you’d think , it kind of has a brown tinge to it , it actually looked like a dark brown in the shade , I changed angles into the light and I saw the slight purple colour , very nice
This or a Xtrail? I would choose this,I can see where my money is going unlike the Nissan. Yeah it doesnt have the hybrid but that hybrid doesnt help much anyway.
It’s quiet inside, thanks a lot to the cooper tyres and heaps of soft touch materials. It’s not S class levels, but certainly at least middle-to-high in the pack
When are you going to do a review for 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado? I asking this cause I had that you are receiving it with the same specs as us here in South Africa.
$30k off-the-lot for a 3-row SUV with this many features is insane in the US, this thing can be sold at $35k msrp and I'm sure there will still be a waiting list and some markup
It runs a Magna wet clutch DCT that seems to be reasonably reliable. I drove one and unfortunately the low speed smoothness of this DCT is not great. This is not a sports car and would benefit from a torque converter auto.
Don't understand why manufacturers put dual clutches in commuter cars. Works okay in hybrids thanks to torque filling and the hybrid start stop assist but this isn't that and a torque converter will always be smoother.
The latest 8at gearbox installed in the tiggo 8l is the latest gearbox product developed and manufactured by Chery. It has been proven reliable in models launched in China for two years. It may be installed on the jaecoo j8 next year and launched in Australia. The DHT gearbox technology and performance used in Chery PHEV models are also very powerful, and the experience is better than that of 8AT products. I hope it can also be launched in Australia.

I suspect Chery can't compete in the domestic market so they're exporting more.

@@dr.andersonsghost4315 That's for sure, but they manage to sell that much, which is quite something.
Good products at an even better price. Their old products sucked, they withdrew and fixed a lot, and it’s showing in their new stuff!
@@CarSauce very true

Need the Tiggo 9!
We're seeing a body reminiscent of a Ford Everest
Can we both be friends?

Tiggo
The fortuner has less tech, more power and no sunroof.
YOU CAN GET IT IN F*CKN PURPLE???? 💜 OMFGGG THATS INSANELY COOL
Right??? The colour alone had me sold 😂

@@sem5397 I know, it's still a relatively unique colour you don't see often at this price point.
Purple is definitely the way to go. You have very good taste.

CarSauce, the Chinese car specialists 😂😂👍👍😂😂
At this point, I honestly think I am 😅
Let's hope they weld the trailing arms in properly on this one
Bought mine 3 weeks ago in Loren purple 😊 just awaiting arrival ❤
Great review. I hear NVH is quite refined. Has that been your experience ?

@@CarSauce Thanks. Also some say putting the car in Eco mode gets rid of much of the DCT slow speed jerkiness.
It's true, switch to eco mode,you can hardly feel it.@@BruceSarbi

Wow . One of my favorite cars Cherry Tiggo 8 Pro 2.0 AWD.
beautiful price
I think the mirror is because of the cameras. Still an odd feeling when I test drove one
Can you make a video on the tiggo 7 pro max? Really considering it so kinda want your honest opinion😁
Did you take it offroad anywhere?
Just gravel roads, nothing serious! AWD is great for that
Great question
Rear end looks like a Lexus, which says something about Lexus' design direction

have 2.0T+8AT model

Great job guys
So GOOD! Wish this comes to New Zealand!
Wish it was available in india
Hey guys get them to bring in a hybrid or PHEV

next chery tiggo 9 pro max ultra 🤣
actually tiggo 9 is already produced in china :v
rockin' a 2l twin turbo haha.
You know you don’t have a good car without a fragrance system
Even the Chinese don’t drive these and that says something
This brand can enter the top three in China, and this is the main model, so you say that Chinese people do not buy data from where?
Does the "Chinese" you mentioned eat orange chicken everyday?
Uninformed comment, completely wrong
POP the Cherry............
Public transportation is cheap enough for anyone to keep safe from the Tiggo bullbar.
Had to turn the volume of the video down
Annoying host
Do a review after 4 years and we’ll see
Daddy likes it.
First
I could buy four and a half V8 Volvo S80s for the price of this shi… Chery
Its chinese so it sucks
That's why you are sucking on Chinese made mobile 😅
