Chery Australia has announced pricing and specifications for its new Tiggo 8 Super Hybrid (CSH), which will be available in showrooms from July 2025.

The plug-in hybrid seven-seat SUV will be offered in two variants—Urban and Ultimate—priced from $45,990 and $49,990 driveaway respectively. Chery has also dropped the ‘Pro Max’ branding in this latest iteration.

The Tiggo 8 CSH offers a combined driving range of up to 1200km thanks to its hybrid system, which pairs a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine (105kW/215Nm) with a 150kW/310Nm electric motor. Power is delivered to the front wheels through a single-speed Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT).

The system provides four driving modes: pure electric, series, parallel and energy recovery. In EV mode, the vehicle can travel up to 95km (NEDC) and reach speeds of up to 120km/h on battery power alone. The 18.3kWh lithium iron phosphate battery can be recharged from 30% to 80% in 20 minutes via a 40kW DC fast charger.

Key standard features on the Urban variant include:

  • – 19-inch alloy wheels
  • – 360-degree camera
  • – Synthetic leather seats
  • – 50W wireless charging pad
  • – 10.25-inch LCD driver display and 15.6-inch infotainment touchscreen
  • – Intelligent voice control (“Hello Chery”)
  • – LED headlights, taillights and DRLs
  • – 9 airbags

The Ultimate variant adds:

  • – Heated and ventilated front seats
  • – Head Up Display
  • – Driver headrest speakers
  • – Panoramic sunroof with power sunshade
  • – Illuminated front scuff plates
  • – Massage function for the driver’s seat

Safety has also been a focus, with both variants including adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking and lane keeping assistance, in addition to a comprehensive airbag suite.

Chery backs the Tiggo 8 Super Hybrid with a 7-year/unlimited kilometre warranty, 7 years of capped price servicing, and up to 7 years of roadside assistance.
