Chery Tiggo Cross - Value For Money

Daniel Fernandez, Managing Editor, dsf.my

Chery Tiggo Cross - Value For Money

Chery Tiggo Cross came into the Malaysian market with a very aggressive pricing strategy of below RM100,000 for both its Turbo and Hybrid variants. Not only that, the car also includes all the bells and whistles that you expect from a car that’s usually above that price range. So, does the Chery Tiggo Cross represent the best value your money can buy for a car in this segment? Daniel Fernandez shares his thoughts after taking the car out for a spin.

While we discuss Chery’s latest car in the market, we also talk about another car company from China that’s already here, but has yet to release any model in the market. BAIC came to Malaysia last year, but their cars have yet to hit Malaysian roads. What happened?

In our news segment, we talk about the new Omoda C9 PHEV, the latest BYD Seal, the Ford Ranger WildTrak 3.0L V6 Turbodiesel as well as the Mercedes-AMG Concept GT XX.
