Chery Master Pakistan is preparing to launch the Tiggo 7 PHEV in Pakistan on April 10, marking its entry into the country’s C-segment plug-in hybrid SUV category.
The company is expanding its range of locally assembled new energy vehicles and aims to strengthen its presence in the growing SUV market.
The Tiggo 7 PHEV will be introduced as a completely knocked down (CKD) model, and deliveries are expected to start by June 2026, depending on the number of bookings received.
Powertrain and Performance
The vehicle is built on Chery’s fifth-generation Super Hybrid architecture. It combines a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine with an 18.3 kWh battery and a dedicated hybrid transmission.
The system produces 255 kW (342 horsepower) and 525 Nm of torque. The company claims the SUV can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 8.4 seconds.
Range and Efficiency
According to the company, the Tiggo 7 PHEV offers over 90 kilometres of pure electric driving range and a combined range exceeding 1,200 kilometres.
It is positioned as a dual-use vehicle for daily commuting and long-distance travel. The company said the vehicle can reduce fuel costs by more than 70% compared to conventional petrol SUVs when driven in electric mode for everyday use.
Features and Safety
The Tiggo 7 PHEV comes with eight airbags and Level 2 advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). It also includes features like a 24.6-inch dual display, a Sony sound system, and vehicle-to-load (V2L) capability.
The launch comes at a time when fuel prices in Pakistan are rising. Plug-in hybrid vehicles are still limited in this category, making the Tiggo 7 PHEV a new option compared to traditional petrol and hybrid SUVs.
Master Auto Engineering, which is part of the Master Group, is handling Chery’s operations in Pakistan. The company has set up a network of dealerships and after-sales services across the country, and test drives are available at different locations.
The price and booking details will be shared on April 10. The company also said that early deliveries will be given priority before any possible government policy changes related to hybrid vehicles.
