- Looking for a used Chery Tiggo in South Africa?
www.cars.co.za/usedcars/Chery...
It’s always exciting to sample a brand new car, but it’s a rare and special experience to drive an entirely new brand of car. South Africans now have an extra badge to choose from when shopping for new wheels and it belongs to Chery. It’s not the Chinese brand’s first foray into the local market, but it may as well be…
You may vaguely remember the brand’s name from the late 2000s. The McCarthy dealer group (now known as Bidvest Automotive) used to distribute Chery in South Africa back then, but while the brand’s products were quite competitively priced, they weren’t particularly well-made - or attractive. The Daewoo Matiz clone (known as the QQ) and Tiggo crossover failed to impress and Chery left our market.
Having driven the new Tiggo 4 Pro, I can assure you, however, that today’s Chery models make the QQ seem like it was built in the late 1800s. It’s astonishing how far this brand has come in just 12 years.
In this video, our video guy Ciro De Siena gives you an in-depth tour of the newcomer, and how it compares to the rest of the market.

Good review as South Africans we have to change our minds about German cars which I have driven my entire life. They will pick pocket you until you become homeless.
German cars nowadays are such piles of crap. Maybe the Chinese are getting better than them.
@@labourlawact7826 true
Pick pocket true that, I am not exactly excited to fix my bmw hahahaha, not ready for such yet
Acurate Point. German Brands are Overrated, Over Disigned and Unreliable with a Sell-Buy Date. Once you have one, you are stuck to Stay in the German Stall.
@@raymondmalan487 Same with American brands. Throw away cars.
Just to comment here on my experience:
I bought a Tiggo 7 Pro last year Nov 2022 from Chery George. They ended up damaging it in a road worthy test...
I have been struggling since then to get this resolved.
Yes true the cars are great, lots of features etc.
BUT, Chery is falling short on the service department...THE MOST IMPORTANT...
So before you buy...check this FIRST!!
I loved the "we have proper roads" comment😁🤣🤣
I have a 6 year old Chery Tiggo that I love with all my heart. So excited about this upgrade!
I had a chery tiggo 3 and so far its a reliable engine it's 7 years old now and planning to get this chery tiggo 4 pro
One of the best cars I've had the privilege of driving. Love die ambient lighting inside.
Fuel average under city and motorway ..?
I’m from Pakistan and also booked it ..
may you give Costumer review.. thanks
In Chile, Chery is the best selling SUV brand and best selling Chinese brand. There are "Pro" and regular versions of each Tiggo, so far we have the Tiggo 2 Pro, 7 Pro and 8 Pro. We also get the lifetime engine warranty.
How is the reliability
@@zepcubacub8234 This is so much better than the other crap on the market in every way. Chery along with Haval are known for their engines, gearboxes and transmissions beating the Germans, Koreans, Japanese and of course Americans. They're also beating them in long term quality surveys in China. Chery and Haval/GWM make the best engines with the best efficiency in the world, that's why Chery can offer this million kilometer warranty. The Chinese are really showing how much other brands are overcharging people, delivering worse stuff for more money. No wonder why Chinese brands are gaining popularity.
Insightful review. I just hope their marketing team can do the product the justice it deserves.
Cherry has up their game big time. Build quality is solid. Checked it out @ a mall display. Interior is tops 👌. Salesperson mentioned voice activation etc . I like it 👌
You are definitely the best when it comes to car reviews. Couldn't help but laugh, when you were shocked the voice assist opened the passenger window 😂🤣
The review is magnificent. Very detailed 👌
Ive been waiting for this bro. Haven't even made past the budget ad and I'm already happy. Hope it's a decent whip. Much love Ciro.
I never thought i'd say this, but it's exciting to see how these Chinese brands are evolving. I think this is a great car, besides the fuel economy. This car is a decent option after the Jolion of course.
@@labourlawact7826 i wanted it but the waiting list is super long due to the floods in Durban
This car is sold at 60k to 85k Rmb in China and the exchange rate is 0.41. I think it’s still too expensive in your country.
@@zhangjason7477 Great car, I hope Chinese & Indian car makers give established brands a run for their money.. I suppose there are costs involved in shipping from China to South Africa? Or are these cars 100% manufactured in SA ? And there is profit - local dealers are notorious to be greedy. Also, Chinese currency is artificially pegged by Chinese government all the time so how does anyone know what the real value of RMB is ?
@@zhangjason7477 everything is still to expensive in our country 😭
Feel like one of the reasons Haval succeeded was it not being called GWM,if Chery created a sub brand and moved this there it might be more successful
Absolutely true!
Actually, this car is get more sales now, especially in the garden route
They already have a sub brand called Exeed. But they are pretty new and I guess at this point it’s domestic only
I completely agree. Personally I am not yet convinced about the long term reliability of the Chinese products, but I will concede that there is a big improvement in the interior and exterior styling of the cars
It's a SsangYong Korando.
The interior is spectacular and pricing is reasonable.
Great review 👌 I am impressed ...I might as well consider it as my next car purchase
You kept saying VARIANT, and I kept having lowkey mini heart attacks. Such is life in 2021, LOL. Great review as always.
It looks like the Chinese cars are hitting the local and international market hard and when you look at the features you getting for the price you pay, it is really a big winner in my opinion. As for the 10 year warranty, mind blowing!
Another Great Review - Detaild , very informative as allways :-)
Our great car reviewer in Africa 🇿🇦 dissecting every detail of the car.
Asian brands doing the most.
Putting out some very good products with amazing interiors and good price points
I've been waiting for this review! The Chinese automakers are really out here doing the things hey. Thanks for another awesome review!
Wow nice preview as always, n also was happy to see you showing seat back and also Boots it been long🙏🙏🙏
"We got proper roads". Lol. I felt the burn in Gauteng. 😂😂👍
Wow blown away by the voice assist!! What!!!
Excellent Review and I am simply in Love with Cherry Tiggo 4Pro 🌹👍
The tester is super cool. Congratulations!
1 million km warranty ! It is crazy ! Never heard that warranty from any other car makers.
I don't know the full details of Chery' s warranty as they aren't sold in the U.S....yet. However, my experience with warranties is that they are only as good as the dealership that honors (or DOESN'T honor) them.
Is the engine the only part of the drivetrain with the warranty? You might want the same warranty on the transmission, if possible.
Communists propaganda
@@Sevan59 and only better!

Nice one mate!!
Top content Ciro.Obrigado meu
Vehicle looks well put together
This is going to be my next car! 👌👌
Compelling. Will certainly shake things up in Kenya... we still have the QQ and Tiggo1 on the roads around so a bit of a bad rep to overcome but very welcome.
Great little car cant wait to tell my wife " Hey hun did you see the new Chery Tiggo 4 Pro Elite SE", Wife will be like "not another new phone??!!"
Don't say Cherry. Just start with "Tiggo" when telling her the name of the car.
Because once she hears that you have a new "cherry", she is going to jump to conclusion and get violent before she realizes you are talking about a "car" named "Cherry Tiggo" instead of a "cherry" named Tiggo.
@@angrysocialjusticewarrior hahahahah🤣🤣🤣oh yes you got a point there shouldnt be mentioning any Chery's.
😂 I must admit it’s the first thing I thought of too.
That voice control 💀🔥
This is beautiful car.. honestly without big brand badge..
Woah !! it actually opened the passenger window!
The Voice Commands stood out for me! Great Review 👍, Chinese Automakers are doing the most. The car has a character, seeing on the road it standout from Suzuki & Toyota's Urban Cruse.
What a fantastic review.
Great review 🔥
When it comes to reliability, if the Cherys in the Philippines and Malaysia are anything to go by, Chery's are quiet reliable. The only thing left to see is dealership service and courtesy because dealerships can make or break a brand. 😁
Not mine. Bought it brand new and it had issues withing 2 months which they are still struggling to fix.
I have to day the Cherry in Centurion is amazing...really great service
Love the Infinity badge and grill.
I had an infiniti Q50 for a few years, friends commented: WOW, Chinese are getting really good with their cars!
No one knew Infiniti was from japan...nissan.... i loved that car. Sold it for a P series
I wonder if anyone has used the car for more than a year. So that they can comment on the reliability.
Look nice 👍 great reviews
This is likely going to be popular in SA....... I like it
I like the confidence there have to their cars
Nice review thanks for no swearing. RSA
Now we are waiting for the budget SUV shootout, that would be cool
Great idea!
Yes shootout. Other brands have trouble now.
Nice review. I'm buying the elite manual. I'm old school and like to drive. Auto cars are boring. My Tiggo 4 pro comes from PE and I blevieve I'm the first to buy one in George. I had a long chat with another owner of the 6 speed manual. Economy is about 7.5 to 9.0 liters per 100 km and he loves the car after 4000km. This is ok for a 1.5 turbo. I think it's the best buy in this class. Also a bit bigger than brezza, urban, maginte, sonet, kiger, venue etc. The Jolion very nice but Tiggo 4 pro is more agile and nippier 0-100 under 10 seconds. Also, Jolion is heavier on fuel, 10 to 12 liter per 100. Tiggo drive train better in my view. Jolion feels like driving a ship. Most important for me is warrantee is better on Chery 5 years 150 000 km. Jolion only 100 000km. Also 1million km 10 year on engine says a lot. Chery opening in George early next year.
One more thing. Tiggo Elite manual is R320k which is 30 000 less than cvt. It's a big price jump for the cvt auto. How much fuel can you buy for 30k? Hmm 1500 liters at R20/l which relates to150 000 kms at least. In other words 5 years or more free fuel driving the manual instead of cvt. Makes one think. If you live in Gauteng or Cape Town the cvt might be a good idea due to traffic. Any other place in country go for manual.
You saved the best feature for last,
Cool little thing!
impressive stuff this
I saw this cherry at the cherry farm on Thursday, lol is was eye catching
BRILLIANT REVIEW 😃💪👌
So well done !
Your consumer advice is SPOT ON & always on point !
Extremely keen to buy a few for management vehicles - its so good actually 😃👏👌
Thanx for your brilliant delivery, once again !
Best
Love the conclusion; the squeaky part🤣
Never cross my mind to go down to CT but this proper road story mmm I wanna go find out myself ha ha ha 😂 😅 .
Good work cherry
I've been looking forward to this for ages. Let's see if Chery can continue the trend of Chinese cars actually being really good (a la GWM/Haval).
@@labourlawact7826 Erm, what on earth does the Corolla have to do with anything?
@@labourlawact7826 A Haval H6 or even a Jolion are arguably better than a Corolla. They are much bigger and are SUV's, yet are cheaper or equally priced. They have much more standard equipment and technology, and a better standard warranty. The very fact that a mid-sized Corolla sedan is around the same price as a large H6 SUV, yet has far less features than the H6, goes to show how amazing Haval are in basically every aspect.
@@labourlawact7826 hmm. I get the very strong sense you haven't even bothered to at least check out a single Haval review before you decided to believe they are anything less than amazing. (And either didn't read all the points I made in my previous comment or want to ignore them.) Even the tiniest bit of online research (or just reading everything I said in my other comment) will show you that a Haval is better than a Corolla in literally every single metric. Try to disprove me. You can't.
@@labourlawact7826 I've given you many objective facts to prove my point. You have nothing to say other than "LOL", as there's literally nothing sensible you can say to back up your belief.
Time will tell gents
Nice car. There are rumours, that the TATA MOTORS are planning to bring the Chery Tiggo to the INDIAN Market soon, under the Tata Badge. That will be awesome.
1 month with the SE Auto. Love it to bits. Spoiled with Too much features. Car can make you lazy. Auto park. Love it. The power is worth the fuel consumption. Overall…very impressed
I ordered one but I didn't know it has Auto Park. Can you explain what auto park does in this car? To me it means a car that automatically parks with your hands of the steering wheel 🤔
Tel me fuel average …?
How much is fuel tank in rands,?
The chinise have caught up, let's see how reliable these cars are
it's the laugh for me while doing the voice commands at the end of the clip 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wow mind blowing
This car is gonna break the SA market. Such great value for money! Cheaper than the Haval Jolion
But less car than the Jolion though. Size and features.
@@yani0728 i agree. Cherry tiggo 4 pro is great but its not feature rich and well priced as the Jolion.
My wife got her Chery today. This review sold the car for me.
Hi, how is the car treating your wife seeing that it has been almost 11 months?
@@LindorNkosi No issues at all. the car has about 16 000km on the clock.
Today i decided to buy chery ❤❤❤ tiggo 4 pro. How's your car experience?
@@bahbah6942 the car is on 20 000km now, just over a year and a month. there was just one small issue with the roof spoiler rattling, just tighten it. No other issues since
@@kennethmorapedihi, was wondering how your Chery Tiggo is still going?
Hi Cero great review drove the entry level chery R269k just as good, 5 speed manual gearbox 16 " mag wheels still drive great, steering very light, ideal for ladys and makes parking a breeze very little bells and whistles if you live without the bells and whistles this will be a great compact SUV at r269k
What makes it ideal for ladies?
The light steering and park assist
I don't know if I'm old fashioned, I'd prefer the manual gearbox
How is fuel economy?
Thank you
it would be nice to have a comparison between the Haval H6 and the Chery Tiggo 7 Pro.
I don't know how many times I watched this 🥺🔥.... God please answer 🙏🏾❤️🥺
A nice little car
Nice road condition jab there Ciro, LMK!
Spot on. Pity it will not be seen by the powers that be in the North West. They're too busy with other "stuff".
Maybe if there was a different political party in charge there?
I'm in the Philippines. Just bought a 5x pro hybrid. 10 year power train 1million km. 5 year bumper to bumper plus 3 years free preventive maintenance parts and labor. Cash price 960,000 php. Unreal. Fully loaded.
Over 20 mins let's goooooo
I was impressed with the vehicle after watching your and many other people's review. After taking my trade-in vehicles for an assessment to Chery Century City - I am still waiting. If I struggle to get feedback from the sales staff I wonder what my struggle would be like once i develop a problem with the vehicle. They are not very responsive as they very likely take the popularity of their brand for granted. Not the kind of people I would like to deal with.
See Elton
come on do a review for the Kia Sonet
These Chinese cars that are coming to our market is good for everyone. Creates competition for the bigger brands like VW and Toyota. It's a win win for the consumer especially in an economy where cars are very expensive.
In ten years time, you'll get ten times as much for the Toyota, than for the cherry
Please also talk about safety features on these Chinese cars. NCAP safety rating and such
5 Stars.
@@jzvr5842 I think u work for Cherry🤣
@@jzvr5842 Thanks, I believe that was in 2015. Do you have a latest Evalution link perhaps?
Can't wait to compare it to the Toyota cross
Thank you for such thorough review. However, I wonder how long it will take for these gismoas and gadgets to fall apart as every other Chinese products that looked Eye-catching in the first moment and after couple weekes they started falling off.
I was waiting for “open the sunroof” part😂😂😂
It would be great if a similar review for Jetour X70 or X70S is done.
I saw a Corolla Cross in the review mirror. Easter Egg for a full review coming soon?
I really hope that the fuel consumption will get better as the engine gets driven in, because 9L/100km is insane for a small car like this?!
I prefer the tigo 7 pro thats the one they need to bring in south africa
It's here now!
I saw this car on the road today.
Weldone chery
Fantsy Pantsy, But how Long will it last in Harsh S.A Conditions, How Good will Aftersales Service be, Technical Backup, Parts Logistics...Won't buy it, But a Useful Alternative. Good Review, as Always.
"now I am in the Western Cape, and we proper roads down here". haha.
Ask of them built by SANRAL.
That's very true. Ciao is a hundred percent correct. I live in the Western Cape, and recently drove a car back from Joburg to Cape Town via the North West province. Sannieshof to Upington route. Gosh, there were unmarked potholes on the open road as big as the car itself, and a couple of feet deep.
Besides finging your car up, this is extremely dangerous, especially if you're from the Cape, and didn't expect the sudden massive holes.
Absolutely hair raising!
Yip if you live any other place in SA not buying suv cross or 4x4 not a good idea. Need ground clearance.
@@KnightArno Exactly. A sedan can only be used in the Western Cape.
That's why we've got so many dropped cars here.
@@labourlawact7826 if you live in Joburg or Durban you can easily drive a sedan too. I drive a picanto in Durban and for most conditions in and around town it’s fine
what about the part availability should anything happen, would it be one of those scenario's of waiting month before the part arrive?
I would appreciate if you could go more in depth of different cars sound systems and if they are any good compared to the competition
I've test driven this car, the sound was surprisingly VERY decent. The larger model, the Tiggo 8 pro has Sony sound. However it cannot be spec'd on these.
Please make a review on its big brother. The Chery Tiggo 8 Pro
Can we please have a Trigo 8 review, my wife and i are fighting about that car and i trust your reviews with my life 😅
Haha! Coming as soon as we can get a test car
I test drove this car the other day and I was as impressed as Mr. Chiro! However, I did note there was some turbo lag (manual version of the review unit in this video). Also, after I drove a Vitara Brezza moments before the Tiggo I did notice the brakes are not as good as the Brezza's. And in typical suburban roads with some bumps and potholes, the Brezza did seem to fare a bit better. But these are minor differences. For the person that really wants all the tech, go Cherry Tiggo. For the person that wants a good, normal car, go Vitara Brezza/Urban Cruiser
Surely the power is much more in 1.5l turbo. We bought a Brezza top manual model for my wife a month ago. I'm buying the manual 1.5l turbo chery for myself. Never driven it.
@@KnightArno does have more power but Tiggo delivers it in a different way than Brezza. The Suzuki's engine just feels beter set up than the turbo. And I realised these cars will mostly be used in suburbs/town/city driving where a turbo won't be used that much or will you be using it for long trips a lot more?
The interior is really nice, the exterior is also yummy to look at but I don't know about that fuel consumption
I see a lot of Chery vehicles in Kimberley, now I know why
Please review a H1 for first time buyers
Please do a Peugeot Landtrek review Cirro
I have seen several owners complain about annoying cabin noise, at highways speeds especially when it's windy. This less than 6 months of owning the car. Anyone else heard the same?
1 year later and these are all over the place, so they must be doing well.
Chery's of old had such a bad rep. Good to see they have stepped up their game.
When is the tiggo 7 pro coming to south africa?
Interior design very nice . Toyota can learn a thing or two
Toyota is overrated and overpriced.
Toyota wont unless you willing to pay extra for it. These options are actually there in order to sell the brand.
Cirro is campaigning for the DA Government 😄. Great review once again though 👏
