Chery’s Tiggo7 Pro has arrived in South Africa to complete the Chery Pro range with the Tiggo 4 and 8 Pro ranges already available locally.
The Tiggo 7 Pro will slot in between these two models. Two versions of the Tiggo 7 Pro – Distinctive and Executive – will be available.
Both versions of the Tiggo 7 Pro are fitted with Chery’s 1.5 litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder engine delivering 108 kW at 5 500 r/min and 210 Nm between 1 750 and 4 500 r/min. The Tiggo 7 Pro delivers its power to the front wheels through a CVT transmission with nine pre-programmed “spreads”. The wheelbase is 2 670 mm with an overall length of 4 500 mm.
The interior is upholstered in durable black synthetic leather with contrasting stitching. The driver’s seat features six-way electric adjustment, and in the Executive model, the passenger seat has four-way electrical adjustment as well.
The first is a 7” digital centre information panel in front of the driver. This floating screen offers a host of customisation options, and it promises clear legibility of all vehicle information in light or dark conditions.
A second 10.25” LCD screen crowns the centre console. This screen, as per other Chery Tiggo Pro models, forms the heart of the vehicle information and entertainment settings. The centre screen also projects a standard reverse camera and there are two USB ports in front and one in the second row.
As with the other Pro models, the Chery Tiggo 7 Pro comes standard with Chery’s voice command system that allows for full control of the cabin, climate control and even the one-touch electric windows and (on the Executive model) the operation of the electric panoramic sunroof.

Whether you are an owner or your dealership is owned by a corporate, it always has a value. In broad terms, this value is made up of two parts. The first is the net asset value of the dealership and the second is the goodwill of the dealership. It is on this basis that most motor dealerships are bought or sold.
