Chery, the leading Chinese automaker, has officially opened pre-sales for its highly anticipated 2025 Tiggo 9 and Tiggo 9 C-DM SUVs. These flagship models offer a blend of style, performance, and advanced technology.
Design and Dimensions
Both the Tiggo 9 and Tiggo 9 C-DM adopt the "soft light aesthetics" design language, featuring a hexagonal grille, through-type lights, and multi-spoke rims. The lower front section has undergone a subtle redesign for a more modern look.
The dimensions of both models remain unchanged from the previous generation, measuring 4820/1930/1699 (1710) mm with a wheelbase of 2820 mm.
Powertrain Options
The Tiggo 9 is powered by a 2.0T engine mated to either a 7DCT or an Aisin 8AT transmission. The engine produces 192 kW (257 hp) and 400 Nm of torque. Three driving modes are available: economy, standard, and sport.
The Tiggo 9 C-DM, on the other hand, is a plug-in hybrid variant. It utilizes Chery's Kunpeng Super Performance Electric Hybrid C-DM system, which combines a 1.5T hybrid engine and a front electric motor. The ternary lithium battery pack has a capacity of 19.43 kWh.
The Tiggo 9 C-DM offers a combined power output of 377 kW (507 hp), resulting in a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 8.8 seconds. The CLTC pure electric range is 106 km, and the WLTC comprehensive range under a full tank and full charge exceeds 1,400 km.
Interior and Features
Inside, both models feature a D-shaped multi-function steering wheel, a dual-screen setup for the instrument panel and central control screen, and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip for the built-in system. Customers can choose between a 2+3 five-seater or 2+3+2 seven-seater cabin layout.
Other notable features include an openable panoramic sunroof, an electric tailgate, rain-sensing automatic wipers, heated front seats, a reversing radar, advanced driving assistance functions, Huawei HiCar & Apple CarPlay, 50 W wireless charging, ambient lighting, remote control, eight speakers, and an AI model for cockpit interaction.
Conclusion
The 2025 Chery Tiggo 9 and Tiggo 9 C-DM represent significant upgrades to the Tiggo series. With their refined design, advanced technology, and powerful performance options, these SUVs offer a compelling choice for consumers seeking a premium and feature-rich vehicle. As the flagship models in Chery's lineup, the Tiggo 9 and Tiggo 9 C-DM are expected to further solidify Chery's position in the Chinese automotive market.
