Chery Tiggo 4 Hybrid revealed, priced

CHERY has announced initial details of its Tiggo 4 Hybrid SUV, the Small segment entrant available from next month (July) priced from $29,990 driveaway.

While the Chinese importer has yet to advise comprehensive specification details for its newest entrant, it says the Tiggo 4 Hybrid will be offered in two trim grades – Urban and Ultimate – likely featuring similar equipment levels to the petrol-powered range already on sale.

The 2025 Chery Tiggo 4 Hybrid range will be powered by a series-parallel hybrid driveline combining a 71kW/118Nm naturally aspirated 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine and electric motor to deliver 150kW/310Nm to the front wheels.

With power drawn from a 1.83kWh battery, Chery quotes a combined cycle fuel consumption figure of 5.4 litres per 100km. The model is listed as being able to accelerate from 0-100km/h in 9.4 seconds, or 1.2 seconds faster than the turbo-petrol model already on sale.

The Tiggo 4 is suspended by a MacPherson strut front / torsion beam rear arrangement and halted by four-wheel disc brakes.

It is understood the Hybrid variants will measure an identical 4351mm in length, 1831mm in width, 1662mm in height to the petrol-powered range, while continuing to ride upon a 2610mm wheelbase.

The measurements gift the five-seat model with a cargo capacity of 380 litres with the rear seats in place, or up to 1225 litres all told.

Assuming the Hybrid variant is indeed identical to the petrol-powered line-up, we expect standard features for the Urban grade to include 17-inch alloy wheel shod with 215/60 tyres and with space saver spare wheel, cloth upholstery, a six-way manually adjustable driver’s seat, 60:40 split-fold rear seats, dual-zone climate control with second-row ventilation outlets, front and rear USB charging ports, dusk-sensing LED headlights and DRLs, rain sensing wipers, powered and heated wing mirrors, acoustic front glass, and all-auto power windows.

The Ultimate ups the ante with 18-inch alloys and 215/55 series rubber, artificial leather upholstery, a six-way power adjustable driver’s seat, heated front seats, follow-me-home headlight functionality, power folding wing mirrors, and a powered sunroof with sunshade.

Both Tiggo 4 petrol variants feature dual 10.25-inch instrumentation and infotainment screens, the latter hosting AM/FM and DAB+ (digital) radio reception, Bluetooth connectivity, wired Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto connectivity, and ‘Hello Chery’ voice commands.

The base offering features a four-speaker sound system while the range-topper adopts a Sony-sourced six-speaker audio package comprising four speakers, and two tweeters.

Elsewhere, the Chery Tiggo 4 features anti-lock brakes, stability and traction control, multi-collision braking, hill-start assist, seatbelt reminders, ISOFIX (x2) and top-tether (x3) child seat anchors, child presence detection, rear parking sensors, a reversing camera, seven airbags, and tyre pressure monitoring.

The Ultimate grade adds a 360-degree camera system.

ADAS technologies include adaptive cruise control, AEB, blind spot monitoring, door opening warning, driver monitoring, emergency lane keeping, lane change assist, lane departure warning, lane departure prevention, rear collision warning and braking, and rear cross-traffic warning across both grades.

Irrespective of variant, the Chery Tiggo 4 is available in five paint colours, with Martian Red the only no-cost option. Premium hues include Lunar White, Mercurial Grey, Star Silver, and Space Black.

Like other Chery passenger models, the Tiggo 4 is backed by a seven-year/unlimited-kilometre warranty with included capped-price servicing program and roadside assistance bundle.

“Adding hybrid power to our most accessible SUV is a natural next step in making advanced technology available to more Australians,” said Chery Australia chief commercial officer Lucas Harris.

“The Tiggo 4 Hybrid combines smart design, real-world efficiency and unbeatable value – all in one package.”
