Chery Launches Tiggo 7 Pro Max Crossover in Russia with Enhanced Design and Features
Chery, the Chinese automaker, has begun retailing the Tiggo 7 Pro Max crossover in Russia, according to the brand’s official press service. The launch marks a fresh step for the model, which sits as an upgraded version of the Tiggo 7 Pro line.
Visually, the Tiggo 7 Pro Max stands out with darker headlamp optics, a bold radiator grille framed with substantial lines, and T-shaped fog lights. Distinguishing branding includes T logos on the front fenders and the word Chery appearing on the trunk lid instead of the usual emblem, signaling a modernized corporate identity.
Inside the cabin, the instrument cluster and the multimedia display are merged into a single, seamless unit. The climate control area continues to feature physical buttons for temperature adjustments, while owners gain amenities such as a panoramic sunroof, built‑in navigation, and an upgraded air quality management system for a more comfortable drive.
Two trim levels are offered. The base Prestige trim includes 18‑inch wheels, LED lighting, six airbags, and a leather interior, with a listed price of 2.83 million rubles. The top-tier Ultimate package adds features such as laminated acoustic glass windows, enhanced navigation, voice control, and a full ADAS set of driving assists, bringing the price to 2.98 million rubles.
Under the hood, the Tiggo 7 Pro Max is powered by a 1.5‑liter turbocharged engine delivering 147 horsepower, paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The vehicle is designed for front‑wheel drive as standard, with plans to introduce all‑wheel drive variants of the Tiggo 7 Pro in the near future to broaden capability across diverse road conditions.
This rollout follows industry chatter and market observations across the region, where Chery aims to expand its lineup and appeal to more customers seeking compact crossovers with modern tech and comfort features. The introduction aligns with ongoing efforts by Chinese manufacturers to refresh and expand model offerings in key markets. [Source: Brand press service, authenticated internal release]
