AI generated from our expert reviews

If you are weighing up the Chery Tiggo 7 and the Dacia Bigster, both family SUVs provide plenty of headroom in the back, along with space for a bulky rear-facing child seat. Out on the road, each car has light steering that leaves you with almost no feedback about what the front wheels are doing. The Bigster holds practical advantages for carrying luggage, giving you a bigger boot than the Tiggo 7 as well as more room with the back seats folded. Storage in the front also marks a contrast, as the Bigster provides door bins large enough to take a big water bottle, whereas the door bins in the Tiggo 7 are too small for one.
