Choosing between the Chery Tiggo 8 and the Jaecoo 7 comes down to how you plan to use your family SUV. The Tiggo 8 leans into maximum passenger capacity with a seven-seat layout and a plush, minimalist cabin, though it is not particularly comfortable around town and struggles with a tiny boot when all seats are raised. Meanwhile, the Jaecoo 7 offers a smart interior and striking styling reminiscent of more expensive machinery, paired with an easy-to-drive nature in town, but it shares a similar weak spot for ride comfort and falls short on overall practicality.
