CHERY UK’s flagship model, the seven-seat TIGGO 9 CSH, has been named Large Car of the Year at the 2026 Car Dealer Power Awards, in recognition of the value, technology, and comfort it offers customers.

James Baggott, founder and Editor-in-Chief at Car Dealer Magazine, said: ‘It’s been less than 12 months since the CHERY brand launched here in the UK, but it’s already making its mark. Dealers highlighted the TIGGO 9 in particular for the sheer value-to-luxury ratio on offer, with an unbelievable level of technology and equipment thrown in as standard. ‘It feels like a much more expensive car than the price would suggest, and has acres of interior space for the money too. It’s no wonder dealers can’t get enough of them.’

Farrell Hsu, Managing Director at Chery UK, said: ‘To be named Large Car of the Year by Car Dealer Magazine, less than 12 months after launch, is a fantastic endorsement of the TIGGO 9 CSH and the team behind it. Our dealers represent our brand every day, and it is because of relationships they build with customers that our vehicles have become so successful.

‘The TIGGO 9 CSH was designed to challenge perceptions of what’s possible at this price point, and it’s brilliant to see that ambition reflected in this award.’

The TIGGO 9 CSH is offered in a single, fully equipped trim level – Summit – reflecting its status as the brand’s flagship model, and making it simple for customers to configure their ideal specification.

The high level of standard equipment includes 20-inch alloy wheels with machined finish, LED headlights, panoramic sunroof, heated and ventilated leather massage seats, 14-speaker SONY surround sound system, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and wireless device charging. The state-of-the-art CSH powertrain delivers an ideal balance of performance, efficiency, and day-to-day usability. Developing 428 PS and 580 Nm of torque, it enables the TIGGO 9 CSH to accelerate from 0-62 mph in just 5.4 seconds, and delivers up to 87 miles of EV range (WLTP) with an overall range of more than 650 miles. CO2 emissions are from just 14 g/km (WLTP).

In the warm summer months, customers may find the Pet Mode feature invaluable: it’s designed to ensure their safety and comfort by keeping the cabin cool if they’re left unattended for short periods. The driver simply selects Pet Mode, sets the desired temperature, and locks the vehicle, safe in the knowledge that the energy-efficient climate control system will keep their pets cool until they return. To give passers-by peace-of-mind and reassure them that the animals are comfortable, the touchscreen displays the temperature setting, a dog avatar, and a message confirming Pet Mode is active.

Everyday life is a central theme of CHERY UK’s recent brand campaigns, which highlight how the TIGGO 9 CSH supports a wide range of lifestyles. Featuring Peter Crouch and Abbey Clancy, ‘Get Carried Away’ reframes everyday family errands as moments worth enjoying by showcasing the TIGGO 9 CSH’s space, comfort and technology. ‘Go Like Mo’ stars Olympic gold medallist Sir Mo Farah CBE, and uses his legendary endurance as a metaphor for the Chery’s CSH system’s long-distance capability.

Reflecting CHERY’s commitment to quality and customer care, the TIGGO 9 CSH comes with the reassurance of a 7-year/100,000-mile vehicle warranty and 8-year/100,000-mile hybrid battery warranty.
