Cherry Tiggo 2016 model year is a compact crossover. This car has a sufficiently long history. Since 2005, the model has been produced in Russia at several factories until 2008. Today it is made only at home, but still comes to Russia through official dealers. Cherie Tiggo, a description and overview of which you will read further, has every chance of becoming one of the most popular Chinese cars.
Chery is only gaining its turnover in our country. Its inexpensive and successful cars (in quality and appearance) quickly find their target audience. This crossover was no exception. The last update of the car received in 2014 called Tiggo 5. It is about him that it will be discussed in this review. Specifications will be affected, review of the appearance and salon, the pictures of the crossover and the overall impression of the possession of this model.
Appearance
Frequency of European and Chinese manufacturers about what a crossover should be somewhat different from each other. Interestingly, the Chinese for the creation of a new crossover, the Chinese lured into their company of two designers from other rather large companies. The first is a former Ford employee, and the second has created a design in Porsche. An interesting combination is not true? Let's see what happened in the end. The pictures shown below show the entire CHERY TIGGO variability in the body color plan.
Immediately it is worth noting that the new body is quite different from the previous generation of design solutions. On the one hand, the body became catching, on such a car you can pay attention to the stream, but I do not want to consider it for a long time. The symbiosis of cooperation of the Chinese with leading designers was surprisingly boring. Several interesting solutions with optics and bumpers are completely lost due to the dimensions of the car installed by Chinese engineers. But still, a jump in the design is visible with the naked eye. The previous generation with the FL prefix was supreme and similar to a very old Chinese SUV.
Look at the front of the front of the Czech Tiggo body. Optics are made in the style of Korean models with LED inserts. The hood line emphasizes a chromed radiator grille. The bumper is quite original: a small air intake over a numbering sign and places for fog lights, which are highlighted by a chromed frame.
On the side of the car is not remarkable. Everything is strictly and simple, but at the same time does not push and does not cause disgust, as it was the OS previous model range of the company.
The back of the crossover greatly looks at the creations of Korean competitors from Kia or Hyundai. The side linings and the lower part of the rear bumper are made of black plastic, which hints on the combat style of operation of this car, but it will be a little later about his running qualities and advantages.
- Several reasons to praise designers:
- Beautiful optics;
- Pleasant color gamma;
- Wheel arches;
- Interesting bumper.
Gabarits.
In the new Cherie Tiggo, the overall dimensions changed to the biggest side. The previous restyled version was much smaller. Parameters of height, widths and lengths increased. The height of the car in the new body rose to 1 meter 84 centimeters. That almost 10 centimeters more than the predecessor. Length and width increased by 10 and 30 centimeters. Now these quantities make up 4.5 meters and 1, 74 meters, respectively. Also, the changes affected the clearance of the crossover. Clearance increased to 190 millimeters. With a full potential load, the lumen decreases to 160 millimeters.
Despite the new platform, Chery Tiggo remained narrow enough. This can be noticed even by photo. Let's hope that by the next generation of the model, the Chinese will fix the remaining errors in proportions and will slightly finalize. They have all the prerequisites for this, since the jump in this regard compared to FL is really colossal. Look inside the car.
Chery Tiggo: Review and photo of the salon
Look at the photo of the front panel of the new Tiggo salon. Nothing reminds? That's right - this is a poured Ford Focus. Recall the former designer from Ford. The entire central console is completely copied from the above-mentioned machine. Of course, some controls and location of the buttons differ, but the common forms are copied thoroughly. At the top there is a display with a multimedia system and navigation. From the bottom there is a control joystick and buttons responsible for multimedia capabilities. In the lower unit, the climate management bodies, air flow settings and so on. On the top panel there is a slight recess for small things. The central console continues between the seats.
Look in the photo of the instrument panel and the steering wheel of Chery Tiggo. If you abstract from the mystery of the central console, it looks quite original and stylish. Comfortable steering wheel with minimal set of buttons. The instrument panel is divided into two parts. In the middle, information about the engine and the fuel reserve are displayed. Absolutely standard stroke for a modern car.
The multimedia system left pleasant impressions. The screen does not slow down. The operating system works smartly and copes with all tasks. We turn to the seats and rear space.
The reasons that influenced the cardinal changes in the cabin are:
- New designers;
- Cooperation and influence with European colleagues;
- The desire to occupy the market segment, in which the budgetary crossovers from Korean companies or Renault Duster were sublined;
- Tiggo FL salon is outdated both morally and in terms of technical characteristics.
Comfort passengers and trunk - Photo and description
The driver's seat and the front passenger chair are quite comfortable. The backs of the chairs are wide, side support is present. The width of the seat allows you to comfortably accommodate even a large person. But the loud people will have to constantly stick while driving - the skin, which is trimmed by a chair, slippery and firm. However, it does not prevent feel comfortable in them. There is a small armrest between the seats, which is intended only for one person - the small width of the car body is affected.
The rear passenger series is quietly accommodated three people. Tiggo is the first Chinese crossover, in which the creators took care of the comfort of high passengers. It clearly affects the influence and intervention of European designers and designers in the creation of the body, which was mentioned above. The car is perfect for long journeys with family or company.
In Chery Tiggo, the trunk volume also increased, compared with the previous generation. Now the volume of the trunk is 370 liters. With the decomposed rear side of the seats, these parameters achieve as much as 970 liters! Under the flooring of the trunk floor is a compartment with a spare wheel. The trunk door opens up, and the height of the crossover allows you to safely stand near the open trunk and do not rest in the door head.
Verdict on the salon
In terms of design, the cabin can be called successful if you do not look back to copy Ford Focus. The car is perceived as European with minor features and oddities. Yet the Chinese from Cherry still do not fully understand what the urban crossover should be. The only thing is very sad - this is the quality of materials. Cheri Tiggo, the photo of the cabin of which you can see in this article, almost entirely consists of coarse plastic and solid skin. In the photos, these shortcomings will not be able to notice, for this you need to "chat" with a car in real life.
Cherie Tiggo - Specifications and configuration
Here everything is pretty sad. Chery Tiggo, like any other Chinese car, is deprived of a variety of motors. On the choice of official representatives of the company in Russia, only one engine is presented with the following characteristics:
- Volume 2 liters;
- Torque 450 rpm;
- The maximum speed in the configuration with a manual gearbox reaches 175 km / h, and with a carton variator - 165 km / h.
The volume of the fuel tank is only 55 liters. The total weight of the car is 1.5 tons. The crossover is built on a front-wheel drive platform, which can also be written to the shortcomings of the model. Many owners would like to get a plug-in full drive. In Cheri installed a combined suspension. As you can see, the technical characteristics of the machine leave much to be desired. Chery Tiggo in terms of fuel consumption is rather voracious - as many as 11 liters for every 100 kilometers of the way. Chery Tiggo's fuel system does not compromise and does not complain about appetite - you will become a permanent guest of the gas station.
As for the packages, in the poorest modification with a manual transmission, the car will cost the buyer about 800 thousand rubles. The maximum equipment with the variator will cost about 1 million rubles.
When buying this crossover from official dealers, Chery provides a 5-year service guarantee in official service centers.
Behavior on the road
Despite the absence of a full drive, Chery Tiggo adequately shows itself on a bad road surface. Cherry's predecessor gathered the worst reviews and dynamics reviews. If everything is still bad with the dynamics here, then the handling has become noticeably better. The car practically does not feel the road holes, so you will feel comfortable on a long trip.
Summing up
We highlight the advantages of the new crossover:
- Comfort in terms of behavior on the road;
- Good handling;
- Ergonomics;
- Reliability;
- The volume of the trunk.
Disadvantages:
- Frank salon materials;
- Poverty of complete sets and line of engines;
- The absence of a full drive (although the permeability even impresses with the front drive).
Chery Tiggo 5 is a big step forward for the Chinese company. The new model range is developing in the right direction. The creators remain working on errors and add several options. After that, it will be possible to quietly compete with Renault Duster and Koreans.
Four-wheel drive can be useful at any time of the year. In winter, the car enthusiasts lodge and snow drifts lie, in the warm season - the autumn and spring dishthele, shower, and sometimes a bit at nature really want to make. Chery Tiggo is an option of a all-wheel drive car for those looking for a crossover at an affordable price. The technical characteristics of Chery Tiggo will talk below.
The road clearance of this car is more than 200 mm, therefore, taking into account sufficiently short sinks, the model can adequately cope with off-road. From the point of view of the cost - 104 500 hryvnia - Chery Tiggo 2.4 4x4 looks very attractive. It remains to find out how the tempting offer of manufacturers meets all declared parameters in practice.
By the way, there are already a lot of cars in this brand on the roads of Ukraine. Most of them, of course, front-wheel drive, first release. But the exterior of the novelty developers decided to leave unchanged - this is all the same twin brother TOYOTA RAV4 of the penultimate generation.
In the Chery Tiggo cabin you understand why the model is considered budget. Inexpensive very hard plastic torpedo, solid-caliber gaps, talking about low quality assembly, weak sound insulation - on all this Chinese, not embarrassed, saved. But they did not shake on the power windows for all four doors of Shary Tigo, the central lock, two-stage heated front seats and air conditioning. Places in the cabin is enough even for inclusive passengers, and to increase the volume of the luggage compartment, the rear seats can be moved forward or completely dismantled by simple manipulations. In the standard configuration, the height of the trunk is 57 cm, and not 70, as in most cars. But this is quite enough for the daily operation of the crossover and trips to the cottage at the weekend. It is very pleasant that the controls were very responsive. The pedals are sensitive to the drive movement, carefully dosing braking and acceleration, and the gearbox pleases with clear shifts.
Of course, if you wish, you can find flaws from any car. No exception and construction of the machine as it were off-road, but due to the lack of a reduced row, the motor lacks traction on low revs to move on off-road. But, starting the movement, Tiggo (and this is a diminutive derivative of "Tiger") working hard working with all four paws - feeling slipping, the Viscounts of the torque redistributes to the rear wheels. Small dirt and jagging obstacles The car passes with pioneer enthusiasm. That's just touching the problem. The 130-strong motor requires podagazovka, and it is necessary to start carefully so as not to overload the clutch. It is clear that the downstream row would have faltered quite by the way. But this, on the one hand, will take up the design, and on the other, it will lead to the rise in the model and the automatic "departure" of it from a number of budget SUVs. Exit position is a shorter first transmission. But the creators of the model before this, for some reason they did not think.
It would be naive to expect from Cheri Tigu technical characteristics of both premium SUVs and an expensive decoration of the cabin or an indispensable number of electronic systems that facilitate control. But the car costs its money. Feelings from the trip behind the wheel of the model remain very positive. And let the four-wheel drive of the Chinese crossover suitable for slippery urban streets than for real harsh off-road. The car has an ideal price / quality ratio and will have to the yard in many families with an average.

Chery Tiggo's compact crossover debut (T11, Tiggo 3) in the Chinese market took place in the spring of 2005, and since December of the same year, its sales began in Russia. In our country, Tiggo's assembly is carried out in Kaliningrad at the Avtotor plant and in Novosibirsk (Named Plant). On the Shanghai Motor Show in April 2007, new models of Tiggo 5 and Tiggo 6 were presented, the serial production of which is planned to begin in 2008.
If you do not know about the existence of the RAV4 and the CR-V, which this PARTNER is frankly similar, then the design of Tiggo should be recognized quite stylish, especially since, according to the official application of the manufacturer Chery Automobile Co., Ltd, Lotus and Japanese Mitsubishi participate in the creation of the car Automotive Engineering Corporation.
Basic equipment includes a power steering power steering, air conditioning, fog lights, electric windows and power windows, heated front seats, central locking, 16 inches, ABS and EBD alloy wheels, 2 Front PB, CD changer on 5 discs, Signaling and painting "Metallic". For an additional fee, leather interior and electrolyuk are provided.
In terms of Tiggo at the RAV4 level of the previous generation. At the driver's seat, a large complex person will feel quite at ease. Ergonomics are not bad; The three-spoke steering wheel, the shape of the chairs and layout of the panel resemble Japanese. Differences relate to dashboard parts and control keys. The climate control system in the basic configuration provides a comfortable temperature in the cabin. It is free to fit five people. The rear row of the chairs can take three passengers, though the doorway is somewhat narrow. The volume of the trunk is 456 liters. It can be further enlarged, folding separately the back of the rear seats.
On Tiggo sold in Russia, there are two Mitsubishi licensed gasoline engines: 2.4 l 4G64S4M (129 hp, 198 nm) and 2 l 4G63S4M (125 hp, 168 nm); For other Tiggo markets, 1,8-liter SQR481FC (132 hp, 170 N M) and 1,6-liter SQR481F (109 hp, 144 N M) are completed. All of them are 4-cylinder 16-valve with distributed injection. Fuel consumption from 7 to 9.5 liters of gasoline AI-92 per 100 km in the country cycle (depending on the volume of the engine and the type of transmission). The maximum speed is 160 km / h for a model with an engine 1.6 l, 175 km / h for 2 l and 2.4 liters of versions and 190 km / h (according to the manufacturer) - for the machine with a 1.8-liter motor. Acceleration until hundreds takes 12 s.
The first two motors are aggregated both 5mkp and 4-speed automata; Versions from 1.8 l and with 1.6 l engines - only a manual transmission. In the Russian market, Tiggo goes so far only with mechanical KP. The checkpoint is done well - the gear shift occurs quietly, smoothly and clearly, the box of the box is convenient, the force to switch the transmission is required small.
Mitsubishi engines provide an acceptable traction force with any revolutions, due to this dynamics of Tiggo quite decent. Their work deserves all sorts of praise, not counting some noise, which can be explained by insufficient noise insulation.
Most Tiggo modifications are completed only by the front-wheel drive, the full is installed only with a 2.4 liter engine. In the usual mode, the car front-wheel drive, and the rear axle is automatically connected when the wheels are slipped. The lack of locks, as well as lower transmission, limits the use of a car on a serious off-road. Despite the fact that Tiggo is not a full-fledged jeep, most small obstacles are overcome by them without much difficulty. The powerful motor and significant road clearance of 155 mm contribute to the good cargo of the car on the roads with a bad coating. The minimum clearance with full load is 135 mm.
Brakes Front disc ventilated, rear disk. Safety in motion provide ABS and EBD. Front suspension Independent MacPherson on cylindrical springs, rear independent on transverse and longitudinal levers. The car handling as a whole is not bad. Steering is rather informative, despite the significant radius of the rotation of the steering wheel. On a straight line, the car holds confidently, but in the turns somewhat rolls; The suspension copes with most irregularities of the road surface.
Low price with optimal basic equipment, good speaker and a roomy interior make Chery Tiggo quite successful purchase for everyday use.
In 2010, a popular Chinese compact parquetor survived FaisLifting - a crossover in appearance and change inside the cabin was needed, because in five years of his life (since 2005), this model with "non-original appearance" (charges in plagiarism with "Second" Toyota RAV4) I managed to make it noticeably ... however, he reached the Russian market only in 2013.
In general, it can be said that restyling - managed ... "Tiggo FL" received a completely new design of the facial part: headlight headlamps found a new (difficult geometric) shape and settled in the extreme high points of the body - forming a stylish front part transition to auto wings; The front lighting engine was acquired by ribbons of daytime running lights with LED lamps; And the front bumper of the streamlined shape and serious sizes with a huge bottom air intake (solved in the classic cross-style) is carefully covered with insert from black plastic trapezoidal form; "Eyes" of fog drawn found a place on contrasting black inserts in harmoniously inscribed in the plane of the bumper; The slit turning lattice with horizontal planks and a chrome-plated bowl with a Chery logo turned out to be neat.
The new original "face" significantly refreshed the image of the crossover - giving it a serious and confident appearance.
The car profile designers touch did not become - Toyotovsky lines difficult to give a more harmonious look. On the side of "Tiggo FL" - a typical compact crossover with a high five-door body, sending wheel arches, a flat linte of a roof, a large area of \u200b\u200blateral glazing, small skes and supprier feed with a practically vertical rear. Classica and only, looks harmonious and monumental.
Yes - the changes of the feed are not so fundamental, and only with attentive consideration a change is visible: the rear bumper of the new configuration received rectangular stop signals, which are logical to external parties; The cover of the spare wheel gained a different view; And the overall lights acquired by LEDs (an additional top stop signal placed in the spoiler is designed to improve informativeness when braking).
The car increased its dimensions only in length (by 105 mm in comparison with dorestayling "Tiggo"): length - 4390 mm, width - 1765 mm, height - 1705 mm, base - 2510 mm, clearance - 190 mm. The crossover is regularly shoved in the tires on the disks 215/65 R16, 235/65 R16 or 215 / 60R17.
Inside, this Chinese crossover has also changed in a high-quality side - ranging from finishing materials and ending with architecture and filling.
Sit into the Salon "Tiggo FL" and inside the driver here meet: a new mutifunctional steering wheel with a large central part and a stylish insert for aluminum, modified front-row armchairs (heated option) with a longer pillow, characteristic rollers of side support and adjustment in six directions, new The instrument panel with informative dials and onboard computer monitor.
Visually, a simple front torpedo received a modern central console with conveniently located blocks of music management and air conditioning.
Inserts under metal are present on many elements of the cabin, their location was dosed and stylishly emphasizes a strict salon.
The first row is enough space, and the range of adjustments allows you to conveniently get a driver and a passenger.
In the second row there is no less, the seat cushion is molded under two passengers. Of course, the third passenger is welcome, but the high central place and the transmission tunnel on the floor does not have a comfortable trip.
The rear row of seats has longitudinal adjustment, depending on the location there is more space for the legs or an increased luggage compartment. The trunk allows you to upload from 520 to 790 liters of cargo through a large swing door.
Chinese cars are famous for generous internal filling, Chery Tiggo FL to that bright confirmation: complete sets for "updated Tiggo" two - "Comfort" and "Luxury".
- In the starting "Comfort" there are: power steering, steering column with height adjustment, power windows, heated electrical floating, air conditioning, on-board computer (LCD display on dashboard), heated seats of the first row with adjustment in 6 directions, alarm system Central castle, front and rear fog, parking sensors, CD / MP3 music.
- In the equipment "Luxury" will be added: leather decoration of the cabin, a hatch with an electric drive, a musical complex with a hard disk.
Renewed by 2013, Cherie Tiggo is equipped with familiar Russian engines: 1.8 (132 hp), 2.0 (136 hp) and new 1.6 liter units (atmospheric 1.6 DVVT with a capacity of 126 hp. And a turbocharged version with mechanical supervision 1.6 With the return of 150 hp).
For all aggregates "in the database" there is 5 mkp, but for the "senior" engines, Chinese engineers offer a CVT variator.
The suspension is completely independently moved from the dorestayling car - the front of McPherson's rack with a cross-stability stabilizer, and the rear of the multi-dimensions is also with a stabilizer.
Disk brakes with ABC and EBD are basic equipment.
The entire drive system is equipped with only a version with a 2.0-liter engine (138 hp).
The price of Chery Tiggo FL 2014 in Russia begins with 569 thousand 900 rubles for the complete set of "Comfort" (1.6l / 126l.s., 5mcpp and 2wd). Similar equipment, but with the "variator" instead of "mechanics" and a supplemented cruise control and climate control is offered at a price of 645 thousand 900 rubles. The cost of the all-wheel drive Tiggo (2.0l / 136l. And the "mechanics" C 4WD) in the "Luxury" configuration on the Russian market is 689 thousand 900 rubles.
