Chery Australia has announced that the 2025 Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 8 models have been awarded five-star ANCAP safety ratings. That covers both the conventional petrol versions and the new Super Hybrid plug-in variants, which is rather good news if you prefer your SUVs to be safe as well as sensible.
ANCAP Scores For Both Models
Both Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 8 posted strong results across the board. They scored 82% for Adult Occupant Protection, 86% for Child Occupant Protection, 80% for Vulnerable Road User Protection, and 82% for Safety Assist. Those numbers put them firmly in the five-star bracket and show the safety package is consistent regardless of powertrain.
What ANCAP Said
ANCAP noted that the availability of safe, alternate-powered SUVs continues to grow and that testing confirms all Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 8 plug-in hybrid variants achieve five-star ratings alongside their petrol counterparts. In short, the organisation found that Chery’s models deliver high levels of safety performance no matter which engine is under the bonnet.
Chery’s Response
Chery Australia welcomed the five-star result as validation of its focus on meeting strict safety standards. The company described the rating as affirmation of its commitment to building vehicles that offer customers confidence and peace of mind on the road.
What Super Hybrid Actually Does
Chery’s Super Hybrid system is positioned as the next step in practical electrified motoring. It pairs electric driving efficiency with the reassurance and range of a petrol engine, intelligently switching between electric, hybrid and petrol modes to optimise real-world performance. The idea is better fuel economy without dramatic compromises, and technology that is reliable and suited to everyday Australian use.
