A little about the Chrey Omoda 5 & Tiggo 8 Pro
The upcoming Chrey Omoda 5 hails from the B-segment crossover and will therefore compete with the likes of the Toyota Corolla Cross, Proton X50, and Honda HR-V. However, the upcoming Chery will give a good fight thanks to its stunning design and extensive tech package.
As for its powertrain, under Omoda 5’s hood lies a 1.6-liter turbocharged inline-four engine making a maximum power of 194 hp and a peak torque of 290 Nm. The future also entails a fully electric variant.
The Chery Tiggo 8 Pro, on the other hand, is based on the China-spec new Tiggo 8 Pro Max but with revised styling and more extensive specs kit. A plug-in hybrid trim is also scheduled to arrive later this year.
Both cars will be covered by a 10-year, 1,000,000 km warranty for powertrain components.
In other news -
The Chinese automaker has planned a “user-centric" aftersale network with over 70 outlets nationwide. The good news is that at the time of launch, Chrey will have ‘no fewer than 30’ outlets running across the country.
