Chery has used the Kyalami Festival of Motoring to unveil two new variants of the Tiggo, one a panel van and the other, a brand-new model.
New step-up from the Tiggo 4 Pro will be positioned between it and the Tiggo 7 Pro with sales starting off in November.Its monthly sales now passed 1 500 units three years after its high profile market return, Chery used the first day of the Kyalami Festival of Motoring on Thursday to unveil a new commercial version of the Tiggo 4 Pro, as well as the incoming new Tiggo Cross.
Up front, the normally aspirated 1.5-litre petrol engine sends 83kW/138Nm to the front wheels via either a five-speed manual gearbox or an optional CVT.
Measuring 4 318 mm long, 1 831 mm wide, 1 662 mm high and 2 610 mm long on the wheelbase front, the sole drivetrain expected is the 1.5 T-GDI from the Tiggo 4 Pro producing 108 kW, but 20 additional Newton Metres for a total of 230 Nm.Potentially on-course to be priced ahead of its November debut, expect the Tiggo Cross to have a likely starting price of around the R390 000 to R400 000 should the culling of the top-spec Tiggo 4 Pro models take place.
If not, projections point to a price tag from around R425 000 based on the current Tiggo 4 Pro Elite DCT’s R415 900 and the entry-level Tiggo 7 Pro Distinction’s R442 900.
