The Chery Tiggo 7 CSH uses a 1.5l turbocharged petrol engine paired with an electric motor, sending power to the front wheels. Together, the system produces 265kW and 310N.m of torque.
But the real headline is the range. Thanks to an 18.3kWh battery, the Tiggo 7 CSH can cover up to 93km of electric power alone. Combine that with the petrol engine, and Chery claims a total range of 1 200km and a fuel consumption of 4.9l/100 km. Charging takes less than an hour with a fast charger or a few hours with a regular wall socket.
Chery Tiggo 7 CSH pricing
Tiggo 7 CSH Plus – R619 900 (Introductory launch price valid for 3 months will be R599 900)
Tiggo 7 CSH Ultra – R679 900

Inside, the layout is familiar. Even the base Plus model comes with leather seats, a power-adjustable driver's seat, dual-zone climate control and keyless entry. The Ultra adds heated and ventilated seats for both front occupants, memory settings for the driver, and some small upgrades like an air purifier and auto-dimming rearview mirror.
The tech offering is strong across the range. Both models get a pair of 12.3-inch screens, one for the gauges and the other for infotainment. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, and there's a voice command system that responds to 'Hello Chery'. There's even a wireless charging pad. The Ultra trim swaps in a better sound system from Sony and adds ambient lighting.
Design-wise, it's business as usual. The Chery Tiggo 7 CSH keeps the bold look of the standard Tiggo 7, complete with LED lights and 18-inch wheels. The top-spec Ultra adds a panoramic sunroof, power tailgate and some extra chrome bits to help it stand out. You also get two-tone paint options if you want something a bit flashier.
