Chery Reveals Second-Generation Tiggo 8 in China With Two Front-End Designs

Key specs and market branding remain unconfirmed under Chery’s multi-brand strategy.

Overview

  • The redesigned Tiggo 8 debuts ahead of a confirmed Q4 2025 launch in China, introducing a choice of two distinct fascias.
  • One nose mirrors the export-focused Lepas L8 while the other echoes the outgoing Tiggo 8 Pro Max design, signaling parallel branding paths.
  • Dimensions grow to 4,749 mm in length, 1,880 mm in width and a 2,825 mm wheelbase, with height at 1,710 mm, according to Chinese-market reports.
  • Chery has not announced powertrains, with overseas reporting pointing to possible petrol, plug-in hybrid and EV options that remain unverified for this model.
  • Export signals intensify as a Tiggo 8 design patent is filed in India and Lepas-badged models gain approvals for South Africa, while Australia’s rollout could shift to Lepas branding in 2026.
