Chery Is Here: The Flagship TIGGO9 CSH Is Set to Enter Europe’s High-Potential Markets

As part of its ongoing global strategy, Chery has officially announced the joint launch of its flagship hybrid SUV, TIGGO9 CSH, in four European markets—Hungary, Romania, Czechia, and Greece—starting November 24. Under the theme “Chery is Here,” the campaign serves as the finale of Chery’s 2025 European product rollout, underscoring the brand's commitment to establishing a strong presence in the region’s high-potential markets. By focusing resources on key growth areas and leveraging its technological and product strengths, Chery is accelerating its expansion across Europe and beyond.

The launch will adopt a relay format, kicking off in Hungary on November 24th, then moving on to Romania and Czechia, and culminating in Greece in early December. Throughout this tour, Chery will execute a unified campaign both on-site and across social media channels. By inviting European users to participate in interactive activities, the company aims to foster stronger emotional bonds with the brand.

All-Round Flagship: Five Core Strengths from the T2X Platform

As the pinnacle of Chery's technological advancement, TIGGO9 CSH is designed to deliver a flagship intelligent-hybrid experience that surpasses expectations. Built on a dedicated hybrid architecture, its "Tiger Leap" T2X platform systematically excels in five key areas: performance, handling, safety, comfort, and space.

TIGGO9 CSH delivers outstanding performance through its Chery Super Hybrid (CSH), which combines a dedicated 1.5T hybrid engine with a 3DHT transmission. This powertrain enables a combined torque output of 580 N·m and acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.4 seconds. With a total range of 1,050 km including a 140 km pure-electric range (WLTC), it achieves an ideal balance of powerful performance and exceptional efficiency. Built on the advanced T2X platform, the vehicle also demonstrates remarkable handling capabilities. Its intelligent all-wheel-drive system dynamically adjusts torque distribution to maintain excellent grip and capability across various conditions—from winding roads and wet surfaces to light off-road terrain. This ensures confident driving performance suited to Europe's diverse landscapes and climate conditions.

In the realm of safety, the T2X platform establishes a comprehensive protection system. The body structure incorporates 85% high-strength steel and is complemented by up to 10 airbags, creating a robust passive safety environment for all occupants. An L2-level advanced driver-assistance system provides proactive alerts and intervention, while the battery system meets high-level standards such as IP68, collectively ensuring global five-star safety protection for family journeys.

TIGGO9 CSH creates a library-quiet cabin experience through advanced sound insulation materials and finely tuned chassis damping, effectively minimizing road noise and vibrations to provide a serene and stable environment for all occupants. Thanks to the T2X platform, the model achieves a 70.4% space utilization rate and features a flexible three-row seating layout that easily adapts to various travel needs. Functions such as the second-row EZE one-touch power slide further simplify access to the third row. Whether for daily commutes or family trips, TIGGO9 CSH serves as a spacious and versatile “mobile living space.” This year, the model has also earned the prestigious German TÜV SÜD Child and Pet-Friendly certification—often regarded as the “Oscar of the industry”—elevating comfort and quality for both passengers and pets to a new level.

Regional Strategy: Chery's Focus on the CEE Blue Ocean

Notably, Chery’s decision to launch simultaneously in these four countries stems from a precise strategic assessment of the European regional market. Hungary, Romania, Czechia, and Greece represent some of Europe’s most promising NEV markets. Each is in an early but rapid growth phase of the electric transition, with market structures still taking shape—creating a valuable window of opportunity for a technology-driven player like Chery.

Take Romania as an example: the market demonstrates robust consumer momentum. In September 2025, new car registrations surged by 39% year-on-year, while new energy vehicle sales grew by 39.3%. SUVs dominated with a 48.9% market share, firmly establishing themselves as the mainstream choice. This trend strongly aligns with the TIGGO series’ product positioning and hybrid technology roadmap, enabling Chery to enter the most promising local segments. Therefore, this four-country joint launch is more than just geographical expansion—it represents a focused cultivation of strategic growth markets where timing, location, and consumer readiness converge.

Building on the market presence established by September's brand launch and the subsequent rollout of three models, the introduction of the flagship TIGGO9 CSH will further enhance the synergy within Chery's product family and deepen user recognition of the brand's technological identity. Its arrival signals that Chery now possesses a complete product portfolio and is fully equipped to compete in Europe's new energy vehicle market with comprehensive competitiveness.

TIGGO CSH family

The joint launch of TIGGO9 CSH across four European markets marks a fitting conclusion to Chery’s global expansion efforts in 2025. Looking ahead to 2026, Chery will continue to leverage its keen understanding of regional markets, deepen its electrification presence in Europe’s high-potential new energy sector, and stay closely aligned with user needs. With technology and product excellence as its dual engines, Chery is poised to advance steadily across this promising landscape.
