Chery Zimbabwe has introduced the stunning Tiggo Cross, available in two trims: Comfort and Elite. With prices set at US$34,500 for the Comfort model and US$39,900 for the Elite, this SUV offers excellent value for money, combining sleek design, advanced technology, and impressive performance. The world-class Chery Zimbabwe showroom and workshop, located in Pomona, Harare, provided DRIVEtorque magazine an exclusive opportunity to experience the Tiggo Cross firsthand.

Sophisticated Design: A Balance of Elegance and Practicality
The Chery Tiggo Cross is an SUV that immediately catches the eye with its bold yet refined styling. The Comfort and Elite trims both feature chromium-plated dual exhaust pipes, a tailgate sport spoiler, and shark fin antennas, adding a sporty touch to its design. The frameless front wiper and LED headlights with daytime running lights ensure visibility and style go hand in hand.
The Elite trim, in particular, stands out with its 18-inch alloy rims, while the Comfort model offers 17-inch rims, providing a practical yet stylish option for drivers. Both trims include roof racks, making the Tiggo Cross ready for both urban commuting and outdoor adventures.

A Premium Feel Inside
When DRIVEtorque visited the Chery Zimbabwe showroom, we were impressed by the Tiggo Cross’s well-appointed interior. The Comfort trim features durable faux leather seats, while the Elite trim offers power-adjustable driver seats with lumbar support, ensuring maximum comfort on long journeys. The cabin is spacious, with 40/60 split-folding rear seats for enhanced practicality.
Both trims come equipped with a 10.25-inch capacitive touchscreen, supporting Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, ensuring drivers remain connected at all times. The dual-zone automatic air conditioning system ensures passengers enjoy a comfortable environment, regardless of the weather outside.
What truly sets the Elite trim apart is its added luxury, including ambient lighting, a soft-touch dashboard, and an intelligent voice assistant activated by saying “Hello Chery.” These features create a premium experience that rivals more expensive SUVs.

Performance That Delivers
The Tiggo Cross is powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, producing 108 kW of power and 210 Nm of torque. Both trims are paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission (6DCT), ensuring smooth acceleration and responsive handling.
Drivers can switch between Eco, Normal, and Sport modes, tailoring the driving experience to their needs. During our test drive at the Pomona showroom, the Tiggo Cross impressed with its ability to handle both urban roads and open highways with ease. Its lightweight steering and efficient start-stop system make it an ideal choice for city driving.

Safety and Cutting-Edge Technology
As DRIVEtorque discovered, the Tiggo Cross doesn’t compromise on safety. The Comfort trim includes essential features like dual front airbags, side curtain airbags, traction control (TCS), and hill descent control (HDC). During our drive, these systems worked seamlessly to ensure stability and control.
The Elite trim goes a step further with advanced driver-assistance technologies, including:
• Blind Spot Detection (BSD)
• Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RTCA)
• Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
• Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Both trims are equipped with electronic parking brakes, rear-view cameras with dynamic guidelines, and tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS), offering drivers extra peace of mind.

A World-Class Facility
The Chery Zimbabwe showroom in Pomona is nothing short of spectacular. Its majestic architectural design and manicured surroundings create a welcoming atmosphere for customers. The facility is paired with a state-of-the-art workshop, staffed by internationally trained Chery technicians. This ensures that Tiggo Cross owners receive top-tier aftersales support, from routine maintenance to advanced diagnostics.

Why the Tiggo Cross Stands Out
The Tiggo Cross is a versatile SUV that caters to a wide range of needs and preferences. It combines stylish design, advanced safety systems, and luxurious interiors, making it a compelling choice for both families and professionals.
The Comfort trim is perfect for drivers looking for practicality and affordability, while the Elite trim offers a premium experience with cutting-edge technology and added luxury. Whether you’re navigating city streets or embarking on a weekend getaway, the Tiggo Cross is designed to impress.

Confidence That Goes the Distance
In an era where car ownership costs keep rising, Chery Zimbabwe delivers reassurance that few rivals can match. The Tiggo Cross comes with a 5,000 km free service, a 7-year/200,000 km warranty, and an outstanding 10-year/1 million km engine warranty for the first owner. This level of protection reflects Chery’s engineering confidence and gives local buyers genuine peace of mind long after they leave the showroom.

Conclusion
After visiting the Chery Zimbabwe showroom and experiencing the Tiggo Cross, DRIVEtorque can confidently say that this SUV is a game-changer for the Zimbabwean market. Its combination of value, features, and performance makes it a standout choice for buyers.
