Chery Australia has confirmed pricing and specifications for its Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid (CSH), which will be available locally from July 2025.

The new plug-in hybrid SUV will enter the market with two trim levels—Urban and Ultimate—starting from $39,990 driveaway, making it the most affordable PHEV SUV currently available in Australia.

Dropping the ‘Pro’ badge from previous models, the Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid features a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine (105kW/215Nm) paired with a 150kW/310Nm electric motor. Combined, the powertrain delivers a driving range of up to 1200km through a single-speed Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT).
