The Chery Tiggo 7 and the Jaecoo E5 both offer sensible, affordable family transport with plenty of standard equipment, but they take very different approaches to power. While the Chery Tiggo 7 provides a roomy interior and generous kit, the Jaecoo E5 delivers a fully electric drive with a useful range and responsive infotainment. Neither car will thrill you on a winding road, as both suffer from body lean in corners, but each provides a practical and well-assembled cabin for everyday family life.

'From' prices stated are for the lowest priced version of the car. Price may vary based on the selected version.
Choose it for
- Its budget-friendly starting price, super-roomy interior with a flat floor and high roofline, and generous equipment list that includes wireless smartphone connectivity and dual-zone climate control.
Worth knowing
- The entry-level petrol engine is thirsty and noisy, and the soft suspension tends to wallow over bumps and lean in the bends.
Choose it for
- Its practical fully electric setup offering a decent official range, plenty of cabin storage up front, and a responsive portrait-orientated infotainment screen with standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Worth knowing
- The slow DC charging speed makes it a poor choice for long-distance driving, and the ride can feel a bit jittery over rough roads.
