AI generated from our expert reviews

When weighing up the BYD Atto 2 and the Chery Tiggo 7, everyday practicality tilts towards the Chery, which is longer and comes with a bigger boot. In the back, both models accommodate your passengers well with a flat floor that leaves no central hump or tunnel to get in the way of feet. Neither car rewards enthusiastic driving away from straight roads: the Atto 2 really feels out of its depth on a twisty road with plenty of body lean, while the Tiggo 7 is really not very pleasant to hustle down twisty routes either. You will find a clear difference in their electronic aids, however. The adaptive cruise control in the Tiggo 7 functions pretty well, whereas the system in the Atto 2 is not very pleasant, bouncing you from white line to white line, especially around high-speed bends.
