Chery does not build many cars like the Chery Tiggo 5: a 5-door SUV with 1.5 L ACTECO, built from 2013 to 2026 as electrification stopped being an experiment and the crossover took every market.

How it came about

The Chery Tiggo 5 (Chinese: 奇瑞瑞虎5; pinyin: Qíruì Ruìhǔ 5) is a compact crossover SUV produced by Chery under the Tiggo product series.

The gearbox is a 5-speed Manual transmission / manual / Continuously Variable Transmission / CVT. The wheelbase is 2610 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.

Family and rivals

Where it sits in Chery's history is not in doubt: the Chery Tiggo 5x (numerical) followed it; it was built at Wuhu, Anhui, China. On a showroom list of its day it stood against the Infiniti Q50, the Peugeot 208, the Tesla Model X. Its Chery stablemates include the Chery Arrizo 5 GT and the Chery A1.
