AI generated from our expert reviews

On a twisty road, the Volkswagen T-Roc handles itself just fine, whereas the Chery Tiggo 7 is really not very pleasant to hustle down. Inside, the Chery Tiggo 7 has a bank of separate climate controls so they are not operated through the screen, whereas the Volkswagen T-Roc has no physical climate controls. In the back, both cars provide a fold-down centre armrest with two cupholders, and both have rear seats that fold nice and flat.
