We’re still reeling from the Chery Maxime MPV‘s recent world debut in Malaysia, but the Middle Kingdom onslaught isn’t set to stop – sources from Chery Malaysia have told us that another model is due to be introduced sometime in the middle of this year, and that it could be a facelift of an existing model rather than an all-new one.
If the Maxime is anything to go by, the facelift should be a tremendous one. Chery Malaysia’s current range comprises the Maxime, Eastar, Tiggo SUV and a host of commercial vehicles. So could we be looking at a facelift Tiggo?
The Tiggo (called the Tiggo 3 in China; there’s a more upmarket version called the Tiggo 5) was facelifted in 2011 with a V-shaped grille (top right), and again in 2014 (bottom right) with a new face to bring it (somewhat) in line with the Maxime, and a heavily-updated interior. We wonder which one we’ll get, if it is indeed the Tiggo we’re getting.
The little SUV first launched in Malaysia in 2007, bearing an RM80k price tag. It’s currently available in 1.6 five-speed manual and 2.0 four-speed auto forms.
