Compare the Chery Tiggo 7 vs BYD Sealion 5
AI generated from our expert reviews
Both the Chery Tiggo 7 and the BYD Sealion 5 provide a completely flat rear floor, so there is room for everybody's feet with no central tunnel to get in the way. Out on the motorway, the adaptive cruise control works pretty well in both cars. On twisty roads, neither model's steering gives you any real feedback or concept of which way the front wheels are pointing. They corner differently, however: the Tiggo 7's soft suspension leans in the bends, while the Sealion 5's firm suspension means it does not lean a lot. Practicality in the boot also reveals a difference, as the Tiggo 7 gives you useful space under the floor to store cables, whereas there is not much room under the floor to keep your charging cable in the Sealion 5.
