This is a new brand or arm under the Chery brand. Omoda C5 as it's called has been recently launched in South Africa and is ready to get a piece of the pie from the ever-populated crossover segment. It has arrived when the market is flooded with similar cars and confusing because the price difference between luxury and low cost is quite high in the segment while most offer similar value in return.
The market is so saturated that I think it's good for consumers as now it's the right time to negotiate hard.
This comes with a standard 5-year/70 000km service plan and a 5-year/150 000km warranty but as you know, when it comes to Chery the first owner who keeps it gets the engine warranty extended to 10 years/1 million km.

Test drove this last week and was tempted to trade in the H6😂 But the boot is tiny, and for me, the ride was also not as smooth. The price on the top spec was also higher than the 6, so not installment friendly in this very tough economic climate😅... But oh my word is this thing hot. When I become rich, I'll buy it for the Mrs. Oh mara but gone are the days of the monopolistic rule of the Germans... Thank you China, while they criticise, you help us poor middle class citizens put money back on the table😂

Days are long gone to just focus on Germans Matthew🤣. If you see how much bo "Mrs" love Jolion? Yoh yoh! I agree with you though this is good especially interior but not sure if I can take it over the 7 Pro based on price and practicality🤔

You must be kidding, took one for test drive overnight and was shocking build quality, wing road and tyre noise was really loud like they had no sound deadening at all. Cheap plastics throughout and poor quality wheels and flimsy metal panels . Seats were ok but not for long periods . Handling was average , steering was vague and suspension was pretty rough

Hi Mpho, I can’t wait to hear your driving impressions once you’ve driven it. I’m not sure if I should add it on my short list to replace my Rio yet. Fuel wise if it’s frugal, I might consider it but won’t count on it as since it’s Chinese. In this segment the Peugeot 2008, Taigo and Mokka, have my heart. But no doubt this is streets ahead interior quality wise. Let’s see…looking forward to your POV

@m2ngwa89 Жыл бұрын

I can tell you that fuel consumption is abit heavy but it does improve over time. The Chinese struggle with fuel economy management.

@sebuwam Жыл бұрын

I think the Chinese are proving themselves with each passing minute. Most cars are still intact from Haval. Some coming from 2017, that's 6 years and they have no issues. The scary thing in that there is just too much tech. I am currently testing the Mahindra XUV700 and it's also packed with tech and costs only R560K. Fuel consumption on these cars is quite high for the engine size. Mokka and 2008 are not necessarily different even under the skin so I understand why you looked at both. Honestly though, I'd pick the 2008🤔. I hope to get a POV soon🙂🙏🏽

@sizwedinisesoko Жыл бұрын

Yeah Mpho, Chinese cars have come a long way indeed. I want to test drive this one and see I might need to consider it together with the new Renault Captur but I agree with you on the 2008. I also read there might be an update of the 2008 later this year, so I won’t rush it. Great job once again man

I still see them coming in, my investment is still on Tigo 8 Pro Max 2 years from now! As they busy pushing in new models aggressively - I hope by 2025 the price for 8Pro Max will have dropped the way I hope it to be in 2 years time! My take on this model - When I first saw it I thought I am seeing another Sister to BAIC 55 but it seems like Chery is disrupting any market hole they can stick their fingers in!

@sebuwam Жыл бұрын

I honestly would not pick this over the Tiggo 7 Pro just based on where it falls. I see it with the likes of CX30 Mazda, Hyundai Kona, BMW X2 and so on. It's a niche car for me. Practicality is not so great but mostly focused on style which I also question on the exterior but amazing interior. As for Tiggo 8 Pro (Before it even gets to Max), that's my car of the year 2022 shame. I loved it at first sight and still do. What an amazing car that is. Pray you manage to get it with time. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

The problem with Chery is the FWD makes the car feel unstable, poor brakes and magnified review mirrors, apart from that it’s a decent car with some things that are great and some that are not. Still good value for money if you don’t die and the car turns out to be reliable.

@sebuwam Жыл бұрын

You kill me with "if you don't die"😅😅😅. Well I found the Tiggo 8 Pro to be quite stable despite the size. I driven the 4 and 7 and also got in them on track. I found them to be acceptible in many ways. Unless you are moving from a performance vehicle as these ones will not give you the same feedback. Their power is okay for the FWD unless that 187kw which I haven't driven as yet but that one might be too much for the front wheels

I complained about the same that the Chery Tiggo 7 Pro is not really stable coming from a VW Tiguan. Even after 3 months, I am used to it but it's still no performance car. You have to be alert when cornering with it. It's not really confidence inspiring. The Tiguan is a different beast and felt more sure-footed and you can really want to push it in the corners. I'll keep the Tiggo for probably 3 years and change it. Chinese cars are okay but they definitely feel the price tag. It's about 60% of even a Korean and Japanese car

@sfjvariety582 Жыл бұрын

This statement is true for almost all the Chinese cars in South Africa. This is because the suspensions are usually tuned for comfort and a soft ride more than sporty driving and dynamic cornering so that is why you are not getting the feeling you would get from German cars which are usually tuned for sporty driving even on the base models. As for the brakes I agree but I wouldn't compare a comfort car's brakes to a sports car's brakes because they aren't made to be used in the same way. But I do agree the difference is there comfort cars do take longer to stop than the sports cars.
