2024 Chery Tiggo 8 Pro Max (inc. 0-100) review: One of the CHEAPEST 7 seat SUVs

[@VanDammage87]

Had my Tiggo 7 Pro Ultimate since November, can't fault it so far its been awesome to drive.

[@sem5397]

@@VanDammage87 nice ! 👍

[@danielakinyemi1594]

That was November 2023? Nice...

[@safiullahqureshi3196]

For a cheapish Chinese brand, the Chery Tiggo 8 Pro genuinely looks upscale. The interior design and tech are quite impressive, and the safety and convenience features are on par with Mercedes vehicles costing four times as much. Great job, Chery!

[@sem5397]

I think it looks very upscale in the other colours but white not so much

[@audionut9974]

its so ugly

[@yslee1401]

Pointless, they have no resale and and nobody wants a used PRC vehicle

[@bigbird232]

As someone who has owned this car for approx. 2 weeks. With current price ($1.98/Lt its about $95-$110 to fuel up per week. - tthats normal driving highway/urban... Its a pretty decent car so far Some extra stuff he didnt mention. Remote start from keyfob. And can open boot merely by having key in your pocket by standing behind the car. (No hands.) Auto dimming headlights, also the cameras turn on when you drive between 10-15km.... distracting but you get use to it. And helps avoid things.

[@Daumex]

He mentions the remote start from the keyfob at 4:05

[@bevis90]

What’s the fuel range like and how many litre in the tank

[@madopado]

Yes pls do another suv comparison review, both medium and large. Thanks.

[@Smite-MeisterEd]

In South Africa, Chery offers the Tiggo 8 pro with 2.0 tgdi engine and the 1.6 tgdi from the 7 pro max

[@aqua-tron2361]

Yes, please do another off road comparison, seeing how these things perform is awesone!

[@JamesZ888]

chery has been improved a lot, since they started testing all the new vechicles in australia first before selling it, things like lane centering etc

[@cnvdh3514]

Back in 2010 my dad had a Chery J5 (one of the ugliest sedans ever made) but it survived a head on collision with a Kudu, protected my dad, my brother in the back seat (wasnt wearing his seatbelt) and myself, all of us walked away with no injuries (including the kudu). If these new Chery SUV's have the same build quality as those old ugly sedans they cant be that bad

[@broke123]

My mother had a single vehicle accident in the J11 (also incredibly ugly car) where she had a negative reaction to medication and veered off the road and hit a tree. She sustained no injuries despite the car being a complete write off. The ambos told my step dad they couldn't believe she survived, let alone not sustain a single injury so I must admit I feel the same way as you about the build quality of these cars.

[@rjedi5295]

these cars does not have the same quality; it is far better than those old ones, so they really cannot be that bad.

[@bwamo2430]

The Tiggo 4 Pro (Which I believe Australia is receiving at some point in the future) has just become the 4th best selling passenger vehicle in South Africa. They're doing exceptionally well here especially considering they launched in mid 2021.

[@faizalngobeni6786]

Except for the fuel consumption, drinks fuel like a super Cars, but differently worth the price

[@leighfauvette2080]

Yes please do another midsize suv mega comparison test. The last one was quite enjoyable 🤘🤘

[@plamenkirev7682]

I recently bought the 2024 Tiggo 4 pro Elite Auto. Must say the car is solid and drivers super well. Only 2 flaws I can pick up is: 1. High fuel consumption - average 9L/100km 2. The plastics that you don't necessarily see tend to squeek a little. Prime example of this is in the trunk as well as in the dash console. However this only happens on bumpy roads & higher speed. Overall, a really good value for money car if you don't mind forking out a little more for fuel.

[@YourLocalSnag]

2:55 YES!! Please do another mid size SUV off road test again!!

[@tylerjones3875]

I’ve been hanging out for this review! Thank Paul! Such a nice looking car, hopefully the engine and tech lives up to the hype 🤞

[@ezy.from.now.on.]

Ofc we want you to do that test again. I dont even wqnna go off road but u do love sewing how capable modern cars are off sealed roads. Its interesting

[@ron_zrl]

Awesome video as always. You and Tom Baker from chasing cars are my 2 favourite car reviewers! I'd vote for a collab :D

[@sportsmaster8729]

Yes please we need that test done again with more cars

[@ryans5343]

Please do the medium suv offroad test again!

[@worthy_escapes]

As for the question, yes we would all love to see the SUV off road mega test again. Remember how many family's like doing the occasional camping trip down a dirt track etc. Or just due to the fact that our roads are mostly absolutely terrible 😂

[@lgburch2344]

You should test all awd and 4x4 suvs off road it would make the videos more interesting

[@sem5397]

People seriously underestimate these Chinese cars . Yes resale might not be the best but when you can buy a top of range tiggo 8 for 48 grand drive away with every feature you can think of included with that luxurious feel against the competitors like rav 4 , Hyundai Tucson which are top of range over 60 grand drive away …..🤷‍♂️ these Chinese cars are now very well made and put together , so much that the ford boss calls them a real threat because of this very reason … they’re really good cars

[@gummybums]

This video was worth watching just seeing you try to sit in the third row.Amazing how the economy has changed. That's the same price I paid for a Dodge journey brand new. Which surprisingly is still running today.

[@dannyhong3195]

Fun fact: Chery designs and produces the engines and gearboxes themselves, some of the engines are being sold to other car companies and air plane companies in Europe. Also I think they have contributed so much work to the new Range Rover Evoque and some other models...

[@DeSilver215]

Awesome review. So jammed packed with features. Perhaps consider producing a reliability index. Or some reliability metric. Totally agree with you about dash cam. If they can do driver monitoring they should be able to do dash cam. How come you don't get into 3rd row via the passenger/curb side? That side also has the 2/3 split.

[@DeSilver215]

I have been told 3rd row has the better access via the driver side.

[@robertceroli3512]

Chery have come a long way very competitive in there field And they have a huge dealer network and a big spare parts infantry so sounds like there here for the long term

[@Yirragee]

Bought mine 24th July. Loren violet and I'm 6,5. Plenty of room

I think there is a slight correction with the boot space with 2nd and 3rd row seats down. total 2100 l of space instead of 700 plus you quoted.

Medium SUV offroad test...YES please!

[@truthandjustice6838]

Test drove one today... Punchy engine, soft ride, excellent tech and interior. Difficult to overlook at the price. And it has a full sized spare. Important in South Africa. I prefer it to the 7 as I cannot see the full instrument cluster in the 7, no matter how high I set the steering wheel and seat at lowest. Ride also more plush than the 7. Excellent value cars and the missus very happy with her Tiggo 4. The Chinese can perhaps improve on fuel consumption, the only gripe.

[@tubanemosia4981]

Wonderful car with good performance and facilities at good priçe

[@RicknMorty85]

These Cherry cars are popular in Russia and many Taxi services use them there since western brands have been banned because of sanctions. I've seen alot of Russian taxis with over 100,000kms on the clock and the drivers reported no issues. The fact that it has a inbuilt dashcam is amazing. I don't understand why this isn't standard in all new cars already.

I would like to see how good it is while offroading and also if it is possible to do any light offroad while in EV mode only.

[@zhanhonglu903]

Today, Chinese people are predominantly using domestically produced cars like BYD, Chery, Geely, Xiaomi, etc. It has been proven that Chinese cars are now on a completely different level. Their safety and durability have been validated through their use as taxis, running for five to six hundred thousand kilometers without any issues. Brands that were once highly sought after by Chinese people ten or twenty years ago, like Toyota, Honda, Volkswagen, and Ford, have seen their sales plummet in China. Mitsubishi had no choice but to withdraw from the Chinese market. As Elon Musk said, without anti-dumping laws, it’s only a matter of time before Chinese cars squeeze out Japanese and Korean cars. If you don't want to see the leap forward of Chinese cars, then just continue pretending to be asleep.
