Beijing, August 2025 – Chery Automobile has officially launched the 2025 Tiggo 8 PLUS Classic Edition, introducing two new configurations in 5-seat and 7-seat layouts. Prices range from USD 16,800 to USD 17,200, offering a competitive entry point in the mid-size SUV segment. While the exterior and interior remain consistent with the Tiggo 8 PLUS family design, the Classic Edition focuses on upgraded equipment, now featuring a panoramic sunroof, electric/gesture-controlled tailgate, and multi-layer sound-insulating glass for the front row.
Exterior Design
The Tiggo 8 PLUS Classic Edition adopts Chery’s signature large black mesh grille flanked by sharp LED headlamps, giving the SUV a confident, dynamic front profile. At the rear, smoked full-width LED taillights incorporate the “CHERY” English lettering, with a sportier lower bumper design.
Dimensions are 4722 × 1860 × 1745 mm, with a 2710 mm wheelbase, maintaining strong cabin space. The new edition is 7 mm longer than before, due to bumper design adjustments.
Interior & Technology
Inside, the cabin integrates a 24.6-inch dual-screen display (12.3-inch 2.5K central touchscreen + 12.3-inch LCD instrument cluster). Below the central air vents is a 50W wireless phone charger. Compared with the Comfort Edition in the same price range, the Classic Edition gains:
Electric & gesture-controlled tailgate
Panoramic opening sunroof
Multi-layer acoustic glass (front row)
Paddle shifters on the steering wheel
However, it omits some features found on higher trims, such as the transparent chassis camera, built-in dashcam, and leather steering wheel.
Powertrain & Performance
The 2025 Tiggo 8 PLUS Classic Edition continues to use the 1.6TGDI direct-injection turbocharged petrol engine, producing 197 hp and 290 Nm of torque. It is paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (DCT), delivering smooth shifts and efficient fuel usage.
Top speed: 200 km/h
WLTC fuel consumption: 7.1 L/100 km
Drive layout: Front-engine, front-wheel drive
