With over 450,000 units of the TIGGO 7 Pro range sold globally in the past year, the New TIGGO 7 Pro Max has already made a substantial impact, contributing more than 100,000 units to this impressive figure.

One of the first things that will grab your attention is the New TIGGO 7 Pro Max’s striking exterior design. Chery’s world-class designers have gone above and beyond to create a vehicle that not only performs exceptionally but also looks the part. The front grille, featuring a unique diamond pattern with chrome highlights, exudes a sense of elegance and power. The lower sill and side intakes have been redesigned to give the SUV a commanding road presence. The “Angel Wings” LED headlamps not only provide exceptional visibility but also serve as an artistic triumph of design.
The attention to detail extends to the 18-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, which add an elegant touch to the 2WD model, while the all-wheel drive model boasts even larger 19-inch rims. The powered tailgate, with its vehicle-wide LED light strip, adds a touch of sophistication to the rear of the New TIGGO 7 Pro Max.
Step inside, and you’ll be greeted by an interior that’s nothing short of a masterclass in design and technology. The cabin features ambient lighting provided by a stepless LED light ring, offering a choice of 64 captivating hues to set the mood. The highlight of the dashboard is the 24.6-inch curved hyperboloid immersive screen, which provides an ultra-high-definition display for various functions, including climate control and entertainment options through wired and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The New TIGGO 7 Pro Max’s control center has been redesigned for an intuitive and seamless experience. The short-travel, light-touch gear lever and a selection knob for driving mode changes put control at your fingertips. The luxurious and comfortable one-piece, perforated leather sport front seats come with electric adjustment for a personalized fit, and the premium 8-speaker SONY sound system ensures an immersive auditory experience.
Breathing fresh air in the New TIGGO 7 Pro Max is a delight, thanks to the enhanced air conditioning system equipped with N95-level (pm 2.5) air purification capabilities. The Executive trim even offers negative ion air purification through an automatic quality control system (AQS) for the cleanest in-cabin air quality. The vehicle also features an automated rear luggage door, dual-zone automatic climate control, “Hello Chery” Intelligent Voice Commands, a panoramic sunroof, and an advanced camera array with AI technology for comprehensive views around the vehicle.
