The Chery Tiggo 8 Pro Max launches in Australia in three variants, and the Urban is the entry-level version.
Priced at $41,990 drive-away, the Urban is priced just above fellow low-cost players like the Mahindra XUV700 and LDV D90, but by the time you add on-road costs, it will undercut popular seven-seat choices like the Nissan X-Trail, Mitsubishi Outlander, and Honda CR-V.
Standard equipment includes 18-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, dual 12.3-inch screens for the instrument cluster and multimedia touchscreen respectively, synthetic leather interior trim, built-in sat-nav, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, eight-speaker audio system, a wireless phone charger, a 360-degree parking camera, interior ambient lighting, dual-zone climate control, as well as heated and ventilated front seats.
The Urban grade is front-wheel-drive only, and is powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine producing 180kW/375Nm. It is rated to tow 1300kg braked or 750kg unbraked.
Boot space measures in at 479 litres with the second row up, 117L with the third row up, or 739L with the second and third row folded flat.
Like all Chery products, the Tiggo 8 Pro Max is offered with seven years and unlimited kilometres of warranty, a seven-year capped-price servicing program, and seven years of roadside assistance.
The Urban grade is a great choice against entry-level rivals, but in the context of the segment, it seems the top-spec Ultra is the best value.
