As a highly influential authority in Indonesia’s automotive sector, FORWOT’s "Car of the Year" Awards are widely renowned for their rigorous, independent and professional judging framework. This year’s judging panel comprised dozens of seasoned automotive journalists, who conducted comprehensive evaluations of over 50 locally available models spanning diverse powertrain technologies over the past year. The assessment process incorporated preliminary screenings, multiple rounds of hands-on vehicle testing and anonymous voting, ensuring the fairness, impartiality, and authority of the final results.


Evaluations were categorized by powertrain type, with the plug-in hybrid segment witnessing particularly fierce competition. In their assessment, the FORWOT panel prioritized core metrics including pure electric range, overall energy efficiency, and daily practicality—key areas where the TIGGO8 CSH excels. According to official data, the model delivers an impressive combined range of over 1,300 kilometers on a full tank and full charge, with a WLTC-combined fuel consumption as low as 1.3L/100km. It also supports high-speed fast charging, enabling a 30% to 80% battery replenishment in just 20 minutes. These robust performance credentials empower the TIGGO8 CSH to strike a perfect balance between daily urban commuting and long-distance travel needs.


The awards ceremony was successfully staged at a Live House venue in South Jakarta. This prestigious recognition has injected strong momentum into the TIGGO8 CSH’s marketing initiatives across Indonesia. Beyond celebrating the model’s outstanding performance, the professional acclaim further solidifies consumer trust, laying a firm foundation for Chery’s sustained growth and expansion in the Southeast Asian market.
