Overview
The Chery Tiggo 5x is the production version of the 2014 Chery Concept Beta concept car.
The production Chery Tiggo 5x was launched on the Chinese car market in the second half of 2017, positioned between the subcompact Chery Tiggo 3x and the compact Chery Tiggo 3. Much like the marketing position of the Tiggo 3x, the Tiggo 5x is the sportier version of the Tiggo 5 despite being a completely different model.[3][4]
In China, the Tiggo 5x was sold with a lone engine option, a 1.5 liter inline-4 engine.[5] An electric variant called the Tiggo e was also offered in China equipped with a 53.6 kWh battery and delivering a range of 401 km / 251 miles (NEDC), with the Tiggo e drivetrain producing 95 kW ( 127 hp ) of power, and 250 N.m / 184 lb.ft of torque. The top speed of the 2019 Chery Tiggo e is 160 km/h / 100 mph, with 0 to 50 km/h acceleration in 3.9 seconds.[6]
