Chery Tiggo 8, a popular mid-size SUV, has been awarded Car of the Year in the United Kingdom, a milestone that further reinforces Chery’s position as one of the world’s fastest-rising automotive innovators.
This prestigious recognition highlights the Tiggo 8’s advanced engineering, superior safety technologies, refined craftsmanship, and family-focused design – qualities that continue to set it apart in highly competitive global markets.
The Tiggo 8 took top honours following evaluations by carwow.co.uk, the UK-based online automotive marketplace, earning an impressive 4.5/5 rating from 75,914 reviews. Carwow’s annual Car of the Year Awards are widely regarded as one of the most authoritative industry benchmarks, drawing on decades of collective road-testing experience.
According to their reviewers, the Tiggo 8 stands out as “a spacious seven-seater with a posh interior – for an unbelievable price.” The award solidifies Chery’s growing influence in the international automotive landscape.
In Nigeria, the Chery Tiggo 8 is rapidly gaining traction, securing a coveted top-three nomination for Nigeria’s Car of the Year in the forthcoming national automotive awards.
Its growing popularity is driven by its versatility, fuel efficiency, stylish exterior, and intuitive technology – attributes that have made it a favourite among families, executives, and long-distance travellers.
Speaking on the recognition, Mr Felix Mahan, General Manager, Marketing, at Carloha Nigeria (exclusive marketers of Chery in the country), expressed confidence in the Tiggo 8’s growing reputation.
“The Tiggo 8’s recognition in the UK and its nomination here in Nigeria reflect the strength, quality, and trust that the Chery brand continues to build among customers. We are proud to offer an SUV that combines global excellence with after-sales support that truly puts our customers first.”
Featuring a panoramic sunroof, advanced infotainment system, intelligent driver-assist features, and robust engine performance, the Tiggo 8 is purpose-built for the demands of Nigerian roads. Its blend of luxury and utility continues to position it as one of the most sought-after SUVs in the country.
Beyond the Tiggo 8’s engineering excellence, customers in Nigeria are also drawn to the industry-leading after-sales support provided by Carloha Nigeria through CarlohaCare 6-6-7. This comprehensive package offers six years of free service, a six-year warranty, and a seven-day repair promise.
This exceptional offering covers scheduled maintenance at zero cost, eliminates the financial strain of routine servicing, and significantly reduces vehicle downtime – making it one of the most generous and customer-centric service packages available in the automotive industry.
As anticipation builds ahead of the final announcement, the Tiggo 8 continues to receive widespread praise from customers and industry stakeholders alike. Its balanced combination of performance, comfort, safety, aesthetics, and long-term value makes a compelling case for its nomination and future success.
Mahan further conveyed Carloha Nigeria’s congratulations to Chery on this global achievement, even as the company looked forward to celebrating more milestones as the Tiggo 8 continues to captivate drivers worldwide.
