People\'s Opinion
N/A / 5
DR 5.0:
The Chery Tiggo 5x , also known in most global markets as the Chery Tiggo 4, is a subcompact crossover SUV produced by the Chinese automaker Chery Automobile since 2017. It is the fifth model of the company's Tiggo crossover product series.
The design of the Tiggo 5x was originally previewed by the Concept Beta that was first displayed in April 2014 at the 2014 Beijing Auto Show.
The Tiggo 5x went on sale in China on the second half of 2017, positioned between the subcompact Tiggo 3x and the compact Tiggo 3.

facelift 2021 Overview:
DR 5.0 (facelift 2021). With 210 Nm of torque, it offers ample pulling power. With a weight of 1459 kg, it falls in the mid‑range. Front‑wheel drive delivers efficiency and easy handling. The top speed reaches 185 km/h. A sport utility vehicle offering higher ground clearance and versatile cargo space. Seating for 5 makes it ideal for daily use.
Performance Verdict
The 1.5L Turbo engine significantly boosts performance with 154 Hp, offering much better acceleration and responsiveness. Paired with a CVT, it delivers smooth power delivery, making it more suitable for varied driving conditions, including highway travel.
Fuel Economy
While more powerful, the turbo engine combined with the CVT often provides a better balance of performance and efficiency than the NA unit, especially during mixed driving. Specific official fuel consumption figures would be needed for a direct comparison, but it's expected to be competitive.
Best Use Case:
Mixed Driving / Highway
