Compare the Chery Tiggo 9 vs Ford Kuga
AI generated from our expert reviews
The Chery Tiggo 9 has a third row of seats and more power, while the Ford Kuga can tow more. Both are pleasant cruisers on the motorway, where the Tiggo 9 settles down as a great mile-muncher and the Kuga remains remarkably quiet from wind and road noise. Take to twisty roads, though, and they feel very different. The Tiggo 9 leans a lot in bends and gives no steering feedback on what the front wheels are doing. The Kuga, meanwhile, inspires confidence with minimal body lean and a surprising amount of steering feel. Inside, both cabins suffer from cheap-feeling or scratchy plastics around the dashboard. Practicality also varies in small ways: you will not fit a big water bottle in the Tiggo 9's door bins, whereas the Kuga's large door pockets will easily hold a large drinks bottle, even if at an odd angle.
