Balancing power and energy consumption for pleasant journey

Muscat: Known from the 2023 Guangzhou International Automobile Exhibition, Chery is now dividing its focus into four tracks: international racetracks, ICE tracks, PHEV tracks, and BEV tracks. Chery is set to comprehensively initiate the next phase of growth in new energy. As part of Chery’s new energy PHEV family, the all-new Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid combines core advantages such as ultra-fast acceleration, ultra-long range, ultra-low energy consumption, and ultra-high safety. This model caters to the elevated expectations of global owners for a delightful travel lifestyle.

Chery has consistently regarded its commitment to independent innovation and mastery of core technologies as the foundation of its enterprise and the core driving force for its development. The DHT represents Chery’s steadfast dedication to technology. The Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid is equipped with Chery’s dedicated DHT, featuring core technology with “3 gears, 9 modes, 11 speeds. This system achieves a balance between power, smoothness, and economy, along with comprehensive coverage for various scenarios and conditions. With this technology, the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid effortlessly handles congested city roads, navigates through high-speed highways with heavy traffic, and manoeuvres through complex rural routes. Furthermore, the vehicle boasts a comprehensive maximum power of 230 kW, a total torque of 510 N•m, and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.5 seconds. With responsive power delivery, robust acceleration is readily available, providing owners with a dynamic and enjoyable driving experience during starts and passing manoeuvres.

New energy vehicles bring consumers a greener, more eco-friendly experience and offer greater freedom in travel choices. However, when it comes to the most crucial factor for new energy vehicle consumers—cruising range—many hybrid SUVs often fall short. If owners want to go farther, they often find themselves lacking the necessary capability.

Thanks to the 3-gear DHT and the dedicated hybrid ternary lithium battery, the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid achieves an impressive all-electric range of 75 km (Under NEDC working conditions) and, more importantly, a comprehensive range of over 1000 km (Under NEDC working conditions). This capability allows owners to enjoy worry-free travel experiences, where a single refuelling and recharging session can cover a substantial distance. It’s worth noting that the winter dual-engine heating system provides rapid heating, ensuring a warm and comfortable driving environment.

Safeguarding security requires “prevention before the event”. The Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid features an L2-level intelligent driving assistance system, encompassing ACC (adaptive cruise control), AEB (automatic emergency braking), a 540° high-definition panoramic imaging system, and other safety-assist functions. These not only reduce the driver’s operational burden but also effectively mitigate road safety risks.

As the ultimate safety measure, the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid offers sufficient protection. The vehicle adopts an integrated ultra-high-strength cage-style body, utilizing multiple sections of Benteler ultra-high-strength hot-formed steel and third-generation high-strength steel in critical areas. This construction establishes a robust safety structure, maximizing passenger protection in the event of an accident.

The Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid, rooted in user needs and leveraging technological advantages, is Chery’s new energy masterpiece aimed at conquering the global market. It boasts a competitive edge of “always staying one step ahead” in terms of power, range, energy supplementation, and safety. As Chery intensifies its efforts in new energy and overseas markets, the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid, with its outstanding product prowess, is set to usher in a new era for the Tiggo 8 family.

Recently, Kantar and Google jointly released the 2023 Chinese Global Brand Builders Top 50. Chery is ranked as the best Chinese global brand builder in cars and 14th in the overall list and its brand power has achieved strong growth.
