Compare the Chery Tiggo 8 vs Cupra Formentor
AI generated from our expert reviews
The Chery Tiggo 8 and Cupra Formentor offer contrasting experiences. Being the longer car, the Tiggo 8 provides a third row of seats, whereas the Formentor does not. In the front, you sit high in the Tiggo 8 and the driver’s seat does not go very low at all, whereas the Formentor allows you to set the seat pretty low rather than giving you a high-up driving position. Out on country routes, the Tiggo 8 leans an awful lot around bends, while selecting Sport mode in the Formentor lets you corner really fast with the car staying absolutely flat. On the motorway, however, the Tiggo 8 is noisy and the Formentor generates rather a lot of road noise from its wide tyres.
