2025 Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid is Australia's cheapest PHEV
The 2025 Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid SUV will start from $39,990 drive-away, making it Australia's cheapest plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHEV) when it lands in showrooms next month.
The five-seat Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid's $39,990 national drive-away price undercuts the Jaecoo J7 SHS Summit's $47,990 drive-away sticker, as well as the the MG HS Super Hybrid's $52,990 drive-away starting point.
The Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid will be available in two model grades, with the entry-level $39,990 Urban joined by the top-spec Ultimate at $43,990 drive-away.

It's the same $4000 walk between the two model grades as with the petrol-only Tiggo 7 Pro SE and SE+, which are $29,990 and $33,990 respectively – meaning a $10,000 premium for the PHEV powertrain.
The Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid uses a 105kW/215Nm 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine and a 150kW/310Nm electric motor to power the front wheels only.
The system offers four driving modes – Pure Electric, Series, Parallel and Energy Recovery – with up to 93km (NEDC) of electric only driving at speeds of up to 120km/h.
The 18.3kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery can take an 80 per cent top-up using a 40kW fast charger in 20 minutes.
Chery says the overall range of the Super Hybrid system is 1200km, and quotes combined fuel consumption of 1.4L/100km – compared to 7.0L/100km in the entry-level petrol-only Tiggo Pro 7 SE. Supplied Credit: CarExpert

Standard equipment on both Super Hybrids includes a diamond-cut front grille – which Chery says will filter down to petrol models – 18-inch alloy wheels, LED projector headlights and integrated LED tail lights.
Inside, synthetic leather seat upholstery covers all five seats, including the six-way power adjustable driver's seat, while there's a 12.3-inch centre touchscreen and a 12.3-inch driver's instrument cluster.
Intelligent Voice Command – which begins with 'Hello Chery' – is standard and operates through the six-speaker stereo, as does the wired Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto connectivity.
Driver assist tech sees adaptive cruise control and lane-keep assist alongside the mandatory autonomous emergency braking (AEB) as well as front, front side and centre, driver knee and side curtain airbags. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
The Ultimate adds a powered panoramic sunroof, privacy glass, heated and ventilated front seats with driver memory, a 360-degree around view monitor and an eight-speaker Sony premium stereo.
The Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid is covered by Chery's seven-year/unlimited kilometre warranty, which includes capped price servicing and roadside assistance.

Why the BMW X1 is a CarExpert Choice winner
It's important for luxury brands to get their most affordable vehicles right. After all, these can be gateway vehicles for customers who may eventually upgrade to even more expensive (and more lucrative) models from the brand. The BMW X1 represents not only an excellent entry point for the Bavarian brand, but an excellent compact premium SUV. That's why we gave it the title of Best Luxury Small SUV in our inaugural 2025 CarExpert Choice awards. Our praise also extends to its electric iX1 sibling, which earned the separate title of Best EV – Small SUV. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. 'The latest BMW X1 is not only a huge improvement over its forgettable predecessor, but it has leaped ahead of the pack,' said marketplace editor James Wong. 'No other premium small SUV offers the same combination of performance, refinement and everyday practicality the X1 does for the money.' The X1 lineup is currently offered with a choice of three powertrains: a turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine with front-wheel drive in the base sDrive18i, and a pair of four-cylinder turbo-petrol engines in the all-wheel drive xDrive20i and M35i xDrive. That means the X1 covers all the bases with everything from an economical entry-level variant all the way up to a hard-charging performance flagship. In our most recent review of the M35i xDrive, we called it a 'really well-rounded small performance SUV'. 'The X1 M35i is a pretty potent wet-weather weapon, and a well-driven one would give many hot hatches a run for their money in any conditions,' we concluded. But you don't need to step all the way up to the M35i to get a BMW X1 that's enjoyable to drive. 'Bavaria's premium small SUV has gone from being one of the class laggards to a new leader, with a blend of tech, practicality, and driving finesse even from the entry-level grade,' we concluded in our review of the entry-level sDrive18i.
