Change versionAI overview
Choosing between the Chery Tiggo 7 and the Chery Tiggo 8 comes down to how many seats you need and how much cabin space you want. Both cars come packed with standard equipment, feature a posh and well-built interior, and share a choice of engines. However, neither model is particularly fun to drive on a twisting road, and both reviews suggest avoiding the thirsty and noisy entry-level petrol engine in favour of the hybrid option. The Tiggo 7 is a roomy five-seater with a decent boot, while the Tiggo 8 stretches to seven seats, adding extra passenger versatility at the expense of luggage room when every seat is in use.

Choose it for
- A roomy five-seater interior with plenty of kneeroom and a generous boot that does not get compromised by extra seating rows.
Worth knowing
- The entry-level petrol engine is thirsty and noisy, so you will want to look at the hybrid options instead.
Choose it for
- Seven-seat versatility with a high-quality, plush cabin that feels much more expensive than it is.
Worth knowing
- With all seven seats in place, the boot space is tiny, and the ride can feel unsettled over bumps in town.
