How to choose Chery Tiggo on the secondary market


Photos of the interior of the restyled Tiggo 5x SUV of the 2020 model year were posted on the Internet; on the Russian market, the car is known as Chery Tiggo 4. The updated model may enter the home market before the end of this year; the car will receive global registration in 2020.

The Tiggo 5x crossover debuted in China only in the spring of 2017; in its homeland, SUV sales started in the fall of the same year. And soon Chinese customers will be offered an updated SUV. The exterior of the model was revealed in June 2018, its pictures appeared in the database of the Chinese Ministry of Industry. The design of the refreshed Tiggo 5x is made in the style of the seven-seater Tiggo 8 all-terrain vehicle: the “junior” cross received a similar radiator grille and front bumper. The headlights and taillights of the Tiggo 5x have also been changed. Now the local publication Autohome has obtained photographs of the interior of the updated crossover, and, apparently, of three versions - basic, mid-range and top-end.

There are fewer innovations in the interior of the Chery Tiggo 4 2020. Thus, in the expensive Tiggo 5x trim levels, the climate control unit has slightly changed, and next to the touch screen of the multimedia system, another air deflector has appeared - again, like the Tiggo 8. The top crossover now has glossy plastic inserts on the front panel.

Chery Tiggo 4 2020 specifications

As previously reported, the restyled Tiggo 5x has grown slightly: the length of the model has increased by 20 mm compared to the pre-reform version and reached 4,358 mm, the height has increased by 25 mm to 1,670 mm. The width and wheelbase are the same – 1,830 and 2,630 mm, respectively.

According to preliminary information, the fresh Chery Tiggo 4 2020 will be available with a 1.5-liter SQRE4G15B naturally aspirated petrol engine with a capacity of 116 hp, combined with a five-speed manual or CVT. The pre-restyling crossover can be purchased with a 147-horsepower SQRE4T15B 1.5 “turbo-four”, which is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission or a Getrag “robot” with two clutches ( Cherry Tigo clutch replacement ). The model is not equipped with all-wheel drive. There is no data yet on whether the turbo engine will remain in the range of the updated crossover. However, it is possible that Chery will sell the refreshed and pre-reform versions at the same time - this is a common occurrence in China. Chery Tiggo 4 2018

Reliability, disadvantages and repair price of Chery Tiggo

Transmission

Problem area. The congenital disease of the 5-speed manual transmission, which begins with a crunch when shifting and progresses to the refusal of some gears to engage, has not yet been completely cured. The machine copied from the French unit (AL-4) is known for frequent (every 40-50 thousand km) failures of the hydraulic valve block (30,000 rubles). The CVT is not repairable, and the contract price is half the cost of a used car. “Robots” based on manual transmissions have electricians.

Engine

Engines produced under license from Mitsubishi and the Austrian-Chinese Acteco units that replaced them can last a long time (up to 350 thousand km) subject to regular (every 40-50 thousand km) replacement of the timing belt (4000-5000 rubles) and oil at intervals of 10 000 km. It is necessary to carefully monitor the level of lubricant and coolant.

Suspension

The earliest (after 40 thousand km) bushings and stabilizer struts are handed in (500 and 700 rubles per piece). Front and rear shock absorbers (4000 and 3000 per piece) can withstand up to 100 thousand km. The rear brake calipers are out of the standings - they can jam at a minimum mileage. But since the Tiggo copies the RAV4 from top to bottom, you can significantly improve the reliability of the suspension by using Japanese equivalents.

Body

Poor corrosion resistance of body iron and brittle plastic. It is almost impossible to find a stainless copy on the market with uncracked bumpers older than ten years. You can also inherit a Tiggo from a previous owner with dust-permeable seals and creaking door locks. This last point doesn't just apply to older cars. However, the leads of windshield wipers that do not want to work properly will most likely have already been adjusted by someone.

Electrics

No widespread epidemics have been observed.
But this does not guarantee trouble-free operation of the electric window unit (8,000 rubles) and the radio (13,000 rubles). First, in winter, and then when the outside temperature is positive, the heater fan may whistle. Lubricating the motor bearings only helps for a while, and a new part costs about 7,000 rubles.

Cherie Tiggo 4 2020 price

Cherie Tiggo 4 2018 the home market this year. The predecessor costs from 79,900 yuan, which in our money is approximately 783,000 rubles at the current exchange rate. Chery Tiggo 4 2020 model year was priced a little more expensive - 85,600 yuan (832,000 rubles).

Let us remind you that in other countries Tiggo 5x will be sold under the name Tiggo 4, but in a pre-reform form. The compact crossover will also reach Russia – sales of the Chery Tiggo 4 2020 should start this fall. As previously reported in the Russian office of the brand, the assembly of Tiggo 4 for the Russian market is being localized, but it is not yet known where exactly the SUV will be produced. According to unofficial data, the company can say goodbye to Derways, which today produces crossovers Tiggo 3 and Tiggo 5

Where is Cherie Tigo FL collected?

Until relatively recently, our customers were very wary of cars assembled in China. It just so happened historically that goods from this country were not of particular quality. But today it is clear that the Chinese have definitely learned how to make cars. Where they collect Cherie Tigo FL, they certainly don’t complain about the lack of demand. Cars are flying all over the world.

By the way, what does the abbreviation FL stand for? After all, there is also just Tigo!? In this case, this refers to a model that has gone through a light restyling. It does not have any fundamental differences from its “progenitor”, but there are still differences, and therefore today we will look at this particular car.

The most significant innovations were in the appearance of the crossover, which became much more proportional and impressive. You can’t even tell from its appearance that this is a product of the Chinese automobile industry.

By the way, where exactly is the Cherie Tigo FL car being assembled ? Perhaps the Chinese no longer have anything to do with it? This is partly true. It is reported that the PRC already has plans to set up production in Karachay-Cherkessia. But still, the flagship plant, from whose gates new crossovers come out, is located in the Chinese city of Dalian.

Oddly enough, almost all domestic fans of the Chinese automobile industry almost pray that production remains in China. The fact is that the Karachay-Cherkess “Chinese” already exist, and the quality of their assembly sometimes leaves much to be desired. But all this is a fixable matter. Representatives of the Celestial Empire have proven more than once that they listen to criticism, and all identified shortcomings are actually corrected. In addition, the acceptance service at the plant is Chinese, and therefore gross defects are identified immediately.

But so far the matter has not gone further than discussion. The economic situation in the country is somewhat far from perfect, and it is not yet clear whether we will continue to have demand for Tigo. More precisely, will the Chinese be able to continue selling enough cars to justify setting up production in Cherkessk.

Currently, the “symptoms” are encouraging: our car enthusiasts really like this car. Firstly, as mentioned above, its appearance is already far from the standard Chinese “rattle”. Secondly, the quality of the materials used to decorate the interior is pleasantly striking. Thirdly, not a trace remains of the former unreliability of cars from the PRC: the cars run for several years without causing any problems to their owners.

As for technology - look under the hood of a used Chery Tiggo

You should start inspecting used cars from the mileage. Almost all copies on the Russian market have a twisted mileage and bring many problems with determining the required maintenance. If you do not diagnose timing system problems in time, you will soon have to look for a new engine for your car. Therefore, computer diagnostics to determine the actual mileage will not be superfluous.

It is also worth paying attention to the following features of the machine:

  • all engines under the hood of the Chinese are gasoline, there are options for 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, 2.4 liters, but it’s best to pay attention to the last two units, they are the most durable and reliable;
  • the older 2.4-liter engine will cost more than other versions, it produces 129 horsepower and drives the car quite well, there are no problems with power reserve;
  • in the post-restyling version, sometimes there are options with automatic transmissions (CVT), but it is better to take traditional mechanics, in this case you will insure yourself against breakdowns and expensive repairs;
  • there are options with all-wheel drive and front-wheel drive, but there will be no difference for the buyer of the old version, most often by this time all-wheel drive does not work very confidently, it is simply not turned on;
  • The technical part of the car was borrowed from the Japanese partners of the concern, so the engines and gearboxes are very durable and of high quality, and this is one of the main advantages of this car.

This is not a completely Chinese car, many of its parts were developed by the Germans, some units were supplied by the Japanese. Everything was actually assembled and produced in China, and in certain years the assembly was carried out in Russia. In any case, when you buy a Tiggo T11, you get a decent car that is worth the money. You can bargain with the seller, bringing the price down to the market average. But often trades are broken by the fact that the car is very popular.

  • Omich: November 19, 2010 at 20:50
    Hi all! I've been driving this Chinese car for the 5th month now. Mileage 11 thousand. Automatic, 2 liters, produced in 09. In Omsk the official sold only 5 of these, then they came with 4*4 manual ones. I chose the car for work and family. I drive every day and have no time to go to car repair shops, so I decided that I should only buy a new car. The Russian auto industry immediately disappeared. We don’t make minivans and crossovers yet (although if there were offers, I would probably take a domestic one). I settled on Tig. I came to the showroom, looked around, read the forums, talked to the service mechanics and didn’t think twice about it - I took it. I traveled 1500 km on vacation with my family. The family is happy. It's okay. Cruise - control on the highways is an indispensable thing, especially in the mountains. It helps a lot, while driving you just steer and don’t worry about speed. In the city the consumption is 12-13 liters, on the highway 10. Of course, the car is not a racing car, for a measured drive. The salon is air-conditioned and heated - super. I installed linden trees for the winter. From past experience I remember how the thorns make noise. Because I mostly drive around the city, so there are no snowy roads on the way. I don't get along inside. Everything works fine, I just pour gasoline. By the way, I immediately pour 92. Cool, the Chinese stuck a label on the gas tank flap - 93. Like, we recommend pouring 93. I didn’t even know that such a brand existed in the world. I tried pouring 95, and I felt the difference only in money. The car, of course, was made for consumer goods, so there are no super expectations like from Audi, and this must be understood when choosing a car. The fact that it is not entirely safe, they fight normally on Fords. Positioning car safety, IMHO, is just a publicity stunt to add importance to another characteristic. I’m not a komikaze, I don’t race and I don’t intend to fight, and no one is insured against scratches and broken bumpers. In general, I'm happy with the car. Yes. The machine works amazingly. At first I couldn’t even figure out when to switch. Now I can already feel when something is wrong, but the outside passenger doesn’t even feel the switching. Next summer I'll probably seal the interior (I'm starting to squeak a little in the back). What else is needed for normal driving? Easy to operate, warm and soft... The machine has all this. And if you don’t like the seats, then upgrade the seats to suit you. Now such services are a dime a dozen on the market. No... for 520 sput it’s a worthy offer, and add-ons and modifications are cheaper than overpaying automakers for them and it’s not yet clear whether they suit you or not. Good luck to everyone!
