Chery Reveals Second-Generation Tiggo 8 in China With Dual Front Ends

Chery's multibrand strategy leaves Australia-facing badge uncertain.

Overview

  • The new Tiggo 8 was unveiled in China with a domestic launch slated for the fourth quarter of 2025.
  • Chery confirmed two distinct front fascias for the model, including one that mirrors the Lepas L8 design.
  • Reported dimensions indicate growth over the outgoing model at 4,749 mm long, 1,880 mm wide and 1,710 mm tall on a 2,825 mm wheelbase.
  • In Australia, Lepas is due to launch in 2026 and the new seven-seat SUV could be sold under that badge or as a Chery, while the current Tiggo 8 Pro Max will remain on sale for now.
  • Chery has not announced powertrains, and separate trade reporting cites unconfirmed specs and an Indian patent filing that do not include a launch timeline.
