What is a Super Hybrid? | 2025 Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid Review

Video Description

The 2025 Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid has landed in Australia and it’s gunning for value-conscious SUV buyers with its sub-$40K drive-away price. 👉 Full Review: https://www.carsales.com.au/editorial/details/chery-tiggo-7-super-hybrid-2025-review-149953/ On paper, it outguns all of its direct PHEV rivals in affordability, while boasting up to 1200km of total range and around 90km of EV-only driving. Priced from just $39,990 drive-away, the entry-level Urban variant massively undercuts established rivals like the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV ($57,290) and even newer entrants like the GWM Haval H6 Ultra PHEV ($47,990). It’s powered by a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine (105kW/215Nm) paired with a 150kW electric motor, working through a single-speed dedicated hybrid transmission and sending power to the front wheels. A reasonable 18.3kWh lithium iron phosphate battery supports electric-only commuting, with fast charging from 30–80% taking just 20 minutes (DC at 40kW). Even better, it runs on regular 91 RON unleaded and features a 60-litre fuel tank, which is larger than many rivals. Chery claims fuel consumption as low as 1.4L/100km, and our real-world test over 200km of highway and country roads returned 3.8L/100km, even without plugging in. That said, there are still a few early teething issues: inconsistent driver aids, some ride harshness on rougher roads, and a few quirks in our test car (like floor mats from another model and a stubborn boot latch). Still, with its mix of generous equipment, genuine efficiency and ultra-aggressive pricing, the Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid could be a game-changer in the budget PHEV space – assuming Chery can iron out the wrinkles before it hits Aussie driveways in big numbers.
