Chery to launch major hybrid offensive in 2025
Chery is set to significantly expand its presence in the SA automotive market in 2025 with the launch of 19 new hybrid vehicles. The first models highlighting Chery's advanced Super Hybrid (CSH) brand will debut at Auto Shanghai 2025, including the Tiggo 7 CSH, Tiggo 8 CSH, and Tiggo 9 CSH. This move underscores Chery's commitment to offering a diverse range of electrified options to consumers. The next-generation CSH range will feature highly efficient hybrid engines boasting a thermal efficiency of 46.5%, paired with a 93% efficient hybrid transmission. This combination will result in exceptionally low fuel consumption figures of 2-3 litres per 100km, a key attraction for drivers seeking cost-effective and environmentally conscious vehicles. Chery's CSH technology incorporates a dedicated 2.0 T-GDI hybrid engine, coupled with DHT230 and DHT280 transmissions, delivering a potent total system output of up to 280kW. Engineered for versatility, CSH will also offer tailored power solutions for off-road driving, appealing to drivers with varied lifestyle needs. The super hybrid technology will be integrated across multiple platforms, including Super Hybrid Off-road, Super Golden Extended-Range, High-performance Electric, and the core Super Hybrid platform, ensuring a wide selection of models for the market. 'Advancing hybrid technology is crucial for sustainable growth and a greener future,' stated Jay Jay Botes, general manager for Chery South Africa. 'We believe Super Hybrid technology will be a key driver in markets like SA as we introduce our expanded line-up of electrified models later this year, providing consumers with compelling choices.' Chery's global hybrid technology was recently unveiled in China, marking the company's transition to a leader in sustainable mobility. Chery chairperson, Yin Tongyue, emphasised the strategy's foundation in eco-friendly development, affordability, safety and strong driving range – all key factors for car buyers. With over two decades of dedicated R&D, Chery has established itself as a hybrid technology pioneer, boasting advanced solutions and a comprehensive range of hybrid models. The new CSH technology will soon undergo a demanding 1 600 km real-world evaluation in China, showcasing its performance and extended range capabilities, demonstrating its potential for SA driving conditions.
