Chery Tiggo 7 Pro Previewed at MIAS Wired
Chery Auto Philippines is giving the public an advance look at the all-new version of the Tiggo 7 compact crossover, now called the Tiggo 7 Pro, at the online auto show MIAS Wired, which starts today and ends on Sunday, December 20.
“We are excited to let MIAS Wired visitors get the first look at our all-new Chery Tiggo 7 Pro. With its luxury SUV styling and premium features, we expect it to be a gamechanger in the fast-growing compact crossover segment,” says Chery Auto Philippines President Rommel Sytin.
Credit for the Tiggo 7 Pro’s world-class design goes to Chery’s Vice President and Global Chief of Car Design, Britain’s Kevin Rice. Rice was instrumental in the design of Mazdas, including the MX-5, from 1999 to 2005 as Hiroshima’s European Design Director, and with BMW, for the exterior design of the previous 1, 3 and 4 Series.
Inside the cabin and under the sheet metal, the new Tiggo 7 Pro reflects the same upscale style and premium build quality and features that the exterior hints at. There is a biggest-in-class 10.25-inch touchscreen 6-speaker infotainment system that has a Mirror Link, Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay connectivity. The Tiggo 7 Pro’s Smart Key not only starts the engine, it also turns on the aircon, opens the tailgate and the windows—all at a push of a button. The Tiggo 7 Pro also has wireless mobile phone charging plus three USB ports.
Other premium features include a 360-degree HD camera, a power tailgate, an electronic parking brake, a tire pressure monitoring system, a rear camera with front and rear proximity sensors, and a fully digital instrument cluster.
The Tiggo 7 Pro is powered by a new-generation 1.5L turbocharged DOHC 16-valve Euro 5 4-cylinder engine coupled with a new continuously variable transmission (CVT).
Safety features include Anti-Lock Brakes, Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, Electronic Stabilisation Program, Electronic Brake Assist, Traction Control, HAC, Hill Descent Control, and ISOFIX. It also has a Brake Override System, which automatically overrides the throttle when the accelerator and brake pedals are depressed at the same time. The Tiggo 7 Pro also has an Emergency Signal System, which flashes the hazard lights at high speed if the driver suddenly brakes when traveling at high speed to alert the motorist following behind.
The new Tiggo 7 Pro is an even more irresistible package with Chery’s standard 10-year/1 million-km engine warranty, a 5-year/150,000-km general vehicle warranty, free 3 years preventive maintenance service (PMS), and free 3 years roadside assistance.
Pricing and more details will be announced when the Tiggo 7 Pro is formally unveiled early next year. Catch the all-new Chery Tiggo 7 Pro and the rest of the Chery Tiggo crossover range at MIAS Wired at www.manilaautoshow.com.
