Chery has, allegedly, started with the “phasing out” process of the Tiggo 4 Pro by confirming prices of the newly introduced LiT versions of the Tiggo Cross. End of the line? While still available, the Tiggo 4 Pro is expected to follow the same route as the Tiggo 7 and 8 Pro, which both dropped the ‘Pro’ suffix following their respective mid-cycle updates last year.

What’s on offer? South Africa’s best-selling Chinese vehicle of last year, the introduction of the entry-level LiT models brings a price premium of R10 000 over the comparative Tiggo 4 Pro derivatives. More spec is, however, present, in the form of dual 10.25-inch displays, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, voice recognition and push-button start. The pair of 10.25-inch displays are standard on the LiT.
