The Chery Tiggo 7 and the Jaecoo 7 share plenty of mechanical DNA, yet they present two distinct takes on the budget family SUV formula. The Chery focuses heavily on space and comfort, delivering a remarkably roomy cabin and a relaxing motorway cruise, though its soft suspension wallows when you pick up the pace on a bend. The Jaecoo counters with striking, upscale styling and a smart interior, but its firm ride thuds over potholes around town and its driving experience lacks polish. Both models load up on generous standard equipment, meaning you get plenty of features without breaking the bank, so your choice comes down to whether you prefer the Chery's easy-going ride or the Jaecoo's sharp presence.
