The Tiggo 7 is Chery's new compact SUV. This Chinese sports utility vehicle features a sleek profile with flowing lines. Up front it gets a thin grille flanked by slim pulled-back headlights, its sides get distinct flame surfacing. Under the Tiggo 7's hood is a 1.5-liter turbocharged gasoline mill which puts out 145hp and 210Nm of torque. Power is transmitted to the front wheels through a six-speed dual-clutch transmission.
The Mitsubishi ASX doesn’t get the pulse racing, and its size makes it better for inner-urban use than open road touring. Because fuel economy can suffer if the engine is required to work too hard, it’s also better suited to terrain where engine performance is less of an issue.
Pros Flexible, pragmatic interior Well-specified equipment list Goldilocks size for inner-urban use
Cons Outdated material and build quality Drivetrain really lacks verve NVH and wind noise
Pros Phone integration; spacious interior; five-year warranty.
Cons Tyre noise.
The Mitsubishi ASX is a compact SUV that is, well, a little bit boring – something that matters in a class full of funky rivals such as the Renault Captur, Peugeot 2008 and Honda HR-V.
Pros Low running costs Roomy interior Decent levels of kit
Cons Not game changing Not very stylish Plasticky interior
