Chery Tiggo 8 hybrid disappears from the Russian market after only 2 years of sales

The company says its time has passed

The Chinese company Chery has excluded the hybrid version of the Tiggo 8 crossover from its Russian lineup. The brand's press service explained that it is time to update the model range and introduce new flagships.

Recently, two hybrid modifications disappeared from the range at once: Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 8. While the former left the market earlier, the "eight" lasted longer: it went on sale in Russia in the fall of 2023 and occupied the top position in the brand's lineup.

The model has now been removed from the company's official website.
