Chery Declares Hybrid War

Chery Declares Hybrid War

We have said this several times before. Toyota has weathered the Chinese onslaught the best with the Corolla Cross being one of its trump cards in this fight. But the Chery Tiggo Cross hybrid (HEV) has just landed and it has gone straight after the Toyota Corolla Cross HEV.

Chery has priced the Tiggo Cross HEV models at R439 900 for the Comfort, and R469 900 for the top-of-the-range Elite. This undercuts the Toyota Corolla Cross XS HEV at R494 400, the XR R545 220, and the HEV GR-S at R561 700.

Powering the Chery Tiggo Cross HEV is a 1.5-litre engine which develops 71kW and 118Nm in normal guise. Now add to this an electric motor powered by a 1.83kWh battery pack, and the combined power jumps up to 150kW and 310Nm. This is sent to the front wheels by a Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT). It is also more than enough to outgun the 90kW/142Nm Toyota Corolla Cross HEV on paper.
