The Chery Tiggo 8 and the Jaecoo E5 both offer plenty of practicality for families, but they take very different approaches to propulsion and interior space. The Chery Tiggo 8 provides a spacious seven-seat cabin with a high-end feel and loads of standard kit, though it is not particularly comfortable in town and suffers from a tiny boot when all seats are in use. Meanwhile, the Jaecoo E5 is an all-electric SUV that keeps things simple with a practical five-seat layout, a responsive infotainment system and plenty of cabin storage, but it is let down by slow DC charging speeds and plain styling both inside and out.
