Chery Tiggo 8 — Owner’s Guide
The Tiggo 8 is Chery’s seven-seat flagship SUV, and its badge history is busier than most: Tiggo 8, 8 Pro, 8 Pro Max and now 8 Super Hybrid, with the engine changing along the way — a 1.6 turbo in the early Pro, a 2.0 turbo in the Pro Max and current Australian cars, and a plug-in Super Hybrid from MY26. Parts, fluids and schedules follow the engine, not the badge — identify yours first.
Which Tiggo 8 do I have?
| Badge / market build | Years | Powertrain | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 瑞虎8 first generation | 2018–2020 | petrol | China-market origins |
| Tiggo 8 Pro | 2021–2023 | 1.6T (SQRF4J16) + 7DCT | Main export wave |
| Tiggo 8 Pro Max / current AU | 2023–present | 2.0T + DCT (2WD & AWD) | Australian MY25/26 range confirmed from official pages |
| Tiggo 8 (UK) | 2024–present | 1.6T (SQRF4J16F, 108 kW/275 Nm) + 7DCT | Verified from the official UK owner manual (archived): 57 L tank, 12V 70 Ah battery, 7 seats at 1,673 kg kerb. Yes — the UK car and the Australian car share a name and not an engine. |
| Tiggo 8 Super Hybrid | 2025–present (AU MY26) | plug-in hybrid | Shares its service schedule with the Tiggo 7 and 9 Super Hybrids |
Sources: Chery Australia official pages (verified 20 August 2026); Chery international records. The 1.6T and 2.0T are different engines with different service parts — quoting “Tiggo 8” at a parts counter is not enough.
