The new Tiggo 8 PLUS and the X90 PLUS were launched on the same day.
On March 22, the Chery Tiggo 8 PLUS Champion Edition was launched with a new Haoyue version, with a total of 5-seater and 7-seater models, priced at 126,900 yuan and 129,900 yuan respectively. Coincidentally, the X90 PLUS, which is also owned by Chery, has also launched two new models for the big family fun version, with the prices of the 5-seater and 7-seater versions being 122,900 yuan and 125,900 yuan respectively. How to choose brother models, let's take a look at their comparison and analysis.
The exterior design is not Chery's strong point, and the two cars do not have many highlights in terms of appearance, but fortunately, the style is tough and the momentum is very strong. The Tiggo 8 PLUS Champion Edition adopts a family-oriented design style, with a large polygonal grille on the front face, parametric quilted interior decoration, and L-shaped light strips on the headlights on both sides to increase the sense of design.
The X90 PLUS has a more aggressive exterior design, also featuring a large polygonal grille, chrome trim strips on the interior, outer frame and top, and dot matrix fog lamps on both sides, which are slightly exaggerated in shape. In contrast, the Tiggo 8 PLUS is more sporty, while the X90 PLUS is more refined.
Although both cars are positioned as mid-size SUVs, the size of the Tiggo 8 PLUS is actually in the A+ class range, with a body length of 4722mm and a wheelbase of 2710mm, and is available in two layouts, with a trunk volume of 889-1930L for 5 seats and 193-1930L for 7 seats, with a slightly cramped seating space in the back two rows.
The X90 PLUS is a proper B-segment car with a body length of 4858mm, a wheelbase of 2850mm, and is available with 5 and 7 seats. Although the trunk volume has not been officially announced, judging from its larger, wider and higher body size, its interior space will be relatively spacious.
In terms of price, Chery originally wanted to build Jietu into a relatively high-end brand, but the market did not recognize it, so the price of the X90 PLUS, which was half a level higher, was lower. Specifically, the price range of the Tiggo 8 PLUS is 117,900-162,900 yuan, and some markets provide a terminal discount of up to 17,000 yuan, and the actual starting price is 102,900 yuan. The guide price of the X90 PLUS is 100,900-142,900 yuan, the terminal discount is 10,000 yuan, and the actual starting price is 90,900 yuan, which is a lower threshold.
In terms of power, the two new cars on the market are equipped with Chery's proud 1.6TGDI engine, with a maximum power of 145kW and a maximum torque of 290Nm, matched with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, WLTC fuel consumption Tiggo 8 PLUS is 7.1L/100km, and Jietu X90 PLUS is 8.15L/100km, the power performance is not much different, and the fuel economy Tiggo 8 PLUS is slightly better.
Written at the end: From the comparison of the two brother models, it can be seen that there are still a lot of differences in the product positioning of Tiggo 8 PLUS and Jietu X90 PLUS, the former pays more attention to tough temperament and sporty creation, suitable for users who like driving and control, and the latter has a more refined appearance, larger space and stronger practicality. How to choose, I believe you have your own answer.
