Chery begins Tiggo 8 hybrid deliveries nationwide

April 10, 2026 (MLN): Chery Master Pakistan has started delivering its Tiggo 8 Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) to pre-registered customers, adhering to its April 2026 delivery schedule, the company shared on Friday.

The Tiggo 8 PHEV was initially launched for advance bookings in January 2026 at an introductory price of Rs10,999,000.

Following strong consumer interest, the price was revised to Rs11,299,000, effective February 1, 2026.

The commencement of deliveries marks a significant milestone for the company, demonstrating timely execution and operational readiness across manufacturing, supply chain, and aftersales services.

The rollout aligns with the firm’s “HELLO CHERY” customer-centric strategy, emphasizing a technology-driven ownership experience and service preparedness from the outset.

Positioned as Pakistan’s only 7-seater plug-in hybrid in the D-SUV category, the Tiggo 8 PHEV is powered by Chery Super Hybrid (CSH) technology.

The vehicle delivers 496 horsepower and 735 Nm of torque, offering an electric-only driving range of up to 90 kilometres and a combined range of approximately 1,200 kilometres.

The SUV comes equipped with a suite of premium features, including a three-row cabin layout, an advanced infotainment system, and a Sony sound system.

Notable interior highlights include a “Queen Co-Pilot” zero-gravity seat with massage functionality, along with heating and ventilation features.

The cabin also incorporates 78.9% soft-wrap materials, complemented by a driver-focused audio setup.

On the safety front, the Tiggo 8 PHEV holds a five-star global safety rating and features 10 airbags along with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), placing it among the most feature-rich vehicles in its segment.

To facilitate customer deliveries and support services, the company has established a nationwide 3S dealership network with 10 operational outlets, with plans to expand this footprint to 20 locations by 2027.

Chery entered the Pakistani market through a collaboration with Master Auto Engineering, part of the Master Group, which brings over 60 years of manufacturing experience. The partnership agreement was formalized in May 2025.

Globally, Chery operates in more than 120 countries, serving a customer base exceeding 18.5m, and has maintained its position as China’s largest automobile exporter for 23 consecutive years.

The initial deliveries come at a time when Pakistan’s automotive landscape is gradually transitioning toward hybrid and electrified vehicles, supported by rising fuel prices and shifting consumer preferences toward fuel-efficient mobility solutions.
