Chery Auto Philippines has once again made waves in the automotive market with the official launch of its latest hybrid offering – the 2024 Chery Tiggo 5X Pro Hybrid. The Chinese automaker continues to expand its electrified vehicle lineup, aiming to provide environmentally friendly and stylish options for Filipino car enthusiasts.
The Tiggo 5X Pro Hybrid joins the Tiggo 7 Pro Hybrid and the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) e+ as part of the local hybrid lineup and comes with new aesthetic enhancements, earning the esteemed “Pro” badge.
Exterior enhancements
The Chery Tiggo 5X Pro Hybrid now sports its signature diamond galaxy grille, similar to its Pro crossover siblings, giving the vehicle a distinct and sophisticated look. LED headlights with a follow-me-home function, LED fog lights, and LED daytime running lights (DRLs) flank the intricate grille.
The addition of red accents on the front and side, along with chrome and silver trims at the rear, adds a touch of sportiness to the overall finish. Power-folding side mirrors with turn signals, a rear spoiler with high-mounted brake light, roof rails, and 18-inch two-tone alloy wheels complete the exterior package, giving the Tiggo 5X Pro Hybrid a striking and modern appeal.
Elegant and modern interior
The sporty red motif continues into the interior, with red stitching and accents adorning the dashboard, door panels, and seats. The cabin features sustainably produced faux leather seats, bucket-type front seats, and a six-way power-adjust function for the driver.
Modern amenities such as an intelligent remote key, push start button, multi-color ambient lighting, auto start/stop function, remote tailgate unlock, and an N95 cabin filter ensure a comfortable and convenient driving experience. For those who enjoy open-air driving, the Tiggo 5X Pro Hybrid has a power sunroof, adding a touch of luxury to the journey.
Cutting-edge tech and safety features
In the tech department, the Tiggo 5X Pro Hybrid boasts a massive 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen that supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, making connectivity and entertainment seamless for drivers and passengers.
The head unit is complemented by a 360-degree around-view monitor, six speakers, and a wireless mobile phone charger, ensuring that occupants stay connected and entertained on the road
Safety is not compromised in the Tiggo 5X Pro Hybrid, as it comes equipped with essential features such as six SRS airbags, an electronic stability program (ESP), hill assist control, hill descent control, traction control, tire pressure monitoring system, ISOFIX, and an anti-theft system with an engine immobilizer. The cruise control function also includes a speed limiter function, enhancing safety during long drives.
Efficient and environment-friendly powertrain
Under the hood, the Tiggo 5X Pro Hybrid receives its most significant upgrade with a 1.5-liter turbocharged hybrid engine, delivering a combined output of 156 horsepower and 230 Nm of torque. The power is exclusively sent to the front wheels through a continuously variable transmission (CVT) with nine simulated gears.
What sets the Tiggo 5X Pro Hybrid apart is the addition of a 48-volt BSG (belt-driven starter generator) system, creating a mild-hybrid setup that reduces carbon emissions by 14 percent and improves fuel efficiency by 13 percent. Chery Auto PH claims the vehicle can achieve an impressive fuel economy of 14.5 km/l, making it an attractive option for eco-conscious drivers.
