Rear passengers will find plenty of headroom in both the Chery Tiggo 7 and the Hyundai Kona. When using the screens, the Kona features intuitive menus that mean you are not digging around for hours to change a simple setting, but the Tiggo 7 has a few too many button presses to get to where you need to be. Point the Kona down a twisty road and it is perfectly capable, if not the last word in fun. By contrast, the Tiggo 7 falls a bit flat, as it is really not very pleasant to hustle down a twisty road.
