Buying a Car

The Chery Tiggo 8 Pro was introduced to the local market early in 2022. The model was introduced with two derivatives initially, however, the Chinese automaker has introduced a third variant, namely the 390T Max recently. All three derivatives come very well specified and, considering the size and features, are a very attractive and affordable option in its segment.

High-Strength Body

One of the first areas that greatly affect the safety of the car is the strength of the steel utilized in the construction of the chassis and body of the vehicle. While there need to be crumple zones to absorb impacts and redirect forces away from the cabin, other areas of the vehicle need to retain their shape in a collision to protect the occupants.

The Chery Tiggo 8 Pro is constructed using Benteler AG ultra-high strength thermo-form steel which ensures that the areas that need to retain their shape even in an accident as best they can, have a higher chance of doing so with the high yield strength steel.

Guard-Ring Airbags

The Chery Tiggo 8 Pro comes fitted with no less than 6 airbags even if you opt for the entry-level derivative. Not only that, the airbags are guard-ring type units which helps reduce the chances of a head injury during an accident. Both the front occupants get a front and side airbag and also benefit from the overlong side curtain airbags that stretch from the front to the rear of the cabin. Thus both front and rear occupants are protected well during a collision.

360-degree AVM (Around View Monitor)

One of the safety features that will not only assist drivers in tight spaces but will also entertain any person that enjoys tech is the 360-degree AVM (Around View Monitor). The system utilizes cameras situated around the vehicle and then superimposes a digital version of the Chery Tiggo 8 Pro onto the screen and in scale. Thus drivers can easily judge how far away objects are from the vehicle. 

Even more impressive is the fact that users can even rotate the view by swiping on the screen. This is to adjust the perspective and give drivers a better view from different points of view.
