As the global automotive landscape continues to evolve toward new-energy solutions, Chery is making bold strides in hybrid innovation. The company is proud to announce the upcoming arrival of its advanced Chery Super Hybrid (CSH) system to the Australian market, marking a significant step forward in the brand’s new energy journey.

Launching in July, the CSH system will debut in the refreshed TIGGO 7 and TIGGO 8 models—offering Australian drivers a new benchmark in hybrid performance, efficiency, and safety.

“The launch of our Super Hybrid technology in Australia marks a major milestone in Chery’s new energy journey,” said Lucas Harris, Chief Operating Officer, Chery Australia. “Australian drivers can now experience the next generation of hybrid performance—where innovation meets real-world practicality.”

At the heart of the CSH system is a fifth-generation 1.5TGDI dedicated hybrid engine, delivering an industry-leading 44.5% thermal efficiency. This engine works in harmony with Chery’s stepless Super Hybrid DHT (Dedicated Hybrid Transmission), which achieves 98.5% transmission efficiency for a driving experience that is both powerful and incredibly smooth.

Paired with a high-capacity lithium iron phosphate blade battery (18.3 kWh), the CSH system offers an impressive pure electric range of over 90 km and a total driving range exceeding 1,200 km. For added convenience, the battery supports DC fast charging, allowing users to recharge from 30% to 80% in just 19 minutes—perfect for a quick coffee stop before getting back on the road.

Chery has been a pioneer in energy-saving and new-energy vehicle development since 1999, becoming one of China's first independent automakers to invest in this space. Backed by a robust global R&D system, the brand continues to lead in hybrid innovation. The development of CSH reflects Chery’s commitment to combining technological excellence with large-scale deployment, further strengthening its presence in global markets.

With a growing portfolio of new energy products and a clear focus on innovation, Chery is accelerating toward its vision of becoming a world-leading new energy brand, driven by the pillars of technology and innovation.
