Cooler Summer Journeys, Freer Family Drives: TIGGO8 CSH Brings Long Range and Low Energy Consumption to Summer Escapes

When summer heat arrives, escaping into the mountains, following a streamside road and leaving the city heat behind become the kind of weekend many families look forward to most. Yet for many drivers planning an intercity trip to escape the heat, the same concerns often come up: whether the range can keep up on a long drive, whether frequent charging stops will disrupt the journey, whether continuous air-conditioning use will push energy costs higher, and whether the vehicle can still deliver confident power on mountain roads when the whole family and their luggage are on board.

With “For Family” as its core value proposition, CHERY focuses closely on the real family road-trip needs and travel pain points of everyday families. For TIGGO8 CSH, CHERY brings its self-developed CSH (Chery Super Hybrid) system, delivering dependable power, long-range confidence and low energy consumption, so summer road trips can feel calmer, easier and more reassuring for the whole family.

Strong Hybrid Power for Confident Summer Drives on Highways and Mountain Roads

A family trip into the mountains often means changing road conditions, from expressways and national roads to long uphill sections. A vehicle that keeps its power delivery steady can make the whole journey feel more relaxed. Equipped with a high-efficiency hybrid system developed for long-distance family travel, TIGGO8 CSH delivers smooth and responsive performance whether cruising at speed or navigating winding mountain roads.

At the core of the powertrain is a 1.5TGDI hybrid-dedicated engine with high thermal efficiency, helping make better use of every drop of fuel. Even in demanding summer conditions, with the air conditioning running for long periods and the vehicle carrying family members and travel gear, TIGGO8 CSH is designed to maintain consistent and responsive power delivery, even with the air conditioning running and the vehicle carrying passengers and luggage in hot weather.

It is paired with a third-generation DHT150 dedicated hybrid transmission, which delivers smooth power transitions with minimal shift shock and helps improve ride comfort for older passengers and children on longer journeys. The transmission achieves a maximum mechanical efficiency of 98.5%.With the electric motor delivering a maximum output of 150 kW and peak torque of 310 N·m，TIGGO8 CSH responds decisively when overtaking on highways and climbs with confidence on mountain roads, maintaining a stable, composed drive across the bends and undulating surfaces often encountered on summer escape routes.

Long Range and Low Energy Consumption, So Families Can Drive Further with Less Planning

For summer getaways, the two biggest concerns for many drivers are range and energy cost. TIGGO8 CSH offers a dual-mode range solution designed to ease both concerns, covering everyday short trips to nearby cool spots as well as longer weekend journeys.

For daily suburban drives, its 90 km pure-electric range can cover many short-distance summer journeys quietly and efficiently, helping reduce fuel use and everyday travel costs. For intercity summer trips, TIGGO8 CSH offers a combined range of more than 1,200 km with a full tank and full charge, supporting longer drives without frequent charging stops or long waits at service areas, so the rhythm of the journey is not interrupted.

Its efficiency advantage is also clear in one of the most familiar summer scenarios: driving with the air conditioning on for extended periods. TIGGO8 CSH achieves WLTC combined fuel consumption as low as 1.3 L/100 km. Even when travelling fully loaded with the air conditioning running, energy use is kept under better control. During long-distance motorway driving in charge-sustaining mode, fuel consumption can be as low as 5.19 L/100 km, helping families enjoy repeated summer trips without excessive running costs.

To match the spontaneous rhythm of family summer travel, TIGGO8 CSH also supports efficient fast charging, replenishing the battery from 30% to 80% in 20 minutes. A short coffee break or rest stop is enough to get the journey moving again. The battery also supports an ultra-wide operating temperature range from -35°C to 55°C, helping maintain stable performance under intense summer sunshine and long periods of high-temperature driving, and giving families greater confidence in range and power when travelling in hot weather.

The best way to unwind in summer is often to head out with family towards mountain breezes and forest shade, without being constrained by range or worrying over energy costs. With mature and reliable CSH technology, TIGGO8 CSH combines smooth, stable power, reassuring long range and efficient energy use for a wide range of family summer travel scenarios. This summer, families can leave the heat and travel concerns behind, set off in TIGGO8 CSH and enjoy every cool destination with greater ease, making time together more memorable and long journeys more carefree.
