The Chery Tiggo 7 and the Jaecoo E5 both offer generous equipment lists and plenty of space for families at a sensible price point, but they suit quite different driving routines. The Chery Tiggo 7 is a comfortable petrol or plug-in hybrid SUV that makes a relaxed motorway cruiser, whereas the Jaecoo E5 is an affordable pure electric option with a practical cabin and responsive infotainment. Neither car is particularly thrilling on a twisty road, but each delivers impressive value for money and a sensible layout for everyday life.
