Chery Tiggo 7 Pro’s dramatic drop in entry price

Chery has released an updated version of its Tiggo 7 Pro mid-size SUV with a revised model lineup that has slashed the price of entry significantly to under $30,000 drive away. In doing so, Chery has made it the cheapest mid-size SUV in Australia.

Previously priced from $36,990 drive away, the Tiggo 7 Pro range has been consolidated to just two models – the SE and the SE+ – with both variants now available from local Chery dealerships.

Compared with the previous entry-level Urban, the Tiggo 7 Pro SE is now priced at $7,000 less and has lost only heated front seats, a four-way electric front passenger seat, a panoramic sunroof and ambient lighting.

Those features are now standard on the SE+ at $33,990 drive away, which is priced $8,000 less than the previous mid-spec Elite. The former top-spec Ultimate has no equivalent in the updated lineup, meaning features like all-wheel drive, 19-inch alloy wheels and front seat ventilation are no longer available locally.

As before, a turbocharged 1.6-litre four-cylinder petrol engine is the sole engine option, producing 137kW of power and 275Nm of torque. It’s matched to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and power is sent to the front wheels only.

The updated Chery Tiggo 7 Pro lineup is available from local Chery dealerships now.
