Overview
The Chery Tiggo Cross is a five-seat B-segment SUV launched in 2025, aimed at buyers deciding between a 1.5-litre turbo petrol drivetrain and a petrol-hybrid system. Prices start from RM88,800. It sits close to the Proton X50 and Honda WR-V on entry price, while offering a distinctly more powerful Hybrid option.
Tiggo Cross in 2026 — what's new
The Tiggo Cross carries into 2026 unchanged, with the same Turbo and Hybrid variants forming the range. There is no 2026-specific mechanical or equipment update. Chery’s June 2026 third-anniversary Mega Rewards campaign advertises the Tiggo Cross from RM81,000, indicating a promotional offer rather than a revised model. Malaysian CKD production began in 2025 at the Inokom plant for both powertrains.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should choose the RM88,800 Turbo. Its 145 hp 1.5-litre petrol engine, front-wheel drive and wet dual-clutch automatic put it directly against the RM89,800 Proton X50 and RM89,900 Honda WR-V. Pay RM99,800 for the Hybrid if the petrol-hybrid/REV powertrain, eCVT and 295 hp output matter more to you than the RM11,000 saving. The two variants are fundamentally separated by their drivetrains, so check the equipment list before treating the extra spend as a trim upgrade.

Chery Tiggo Cross buyer's guides & reviews
Verdict
The Tiggo Cross gives B-SUV buyers two very different drivetrain routes in one five-seat body. At 4,318 mm long and with a 2,610 mm wheelbase, it is shorter but wider than the Proton X50, and its wheelbase is 10 mm longer. The Turbo is priced almost level with the X50 and WR-V; the Hybrid asks more, but brings 295 hp and an eCVT. Buyers cross-shopping the cheaper Ativa, QV-E or Aruz will need to justify the higher entry cost.
