2024 Chery Tiggo 8 PRO MAX Summary

If you’re in the market for a seven-seat SUV these days, you really are spoiled for choice.

Of course, you always have your obvious options like the Nissan X-Trail, Mitsubishi Outlander, and Honda CR-V, but what if you’re a big family on a relatively small budget.

Well, Chinese player Chery has just introduced its Tiggo 8 Pro Max into the seven-seat mid-size SUV space. I’m guessing the name means if you’re a professional, maximum-sized family, then it’s designed to be the best option for you.

But does it have what it takes to challenge such established seven-seat rivals? We tested one at its Australian launch to find out.

2025 GWM Haval H6GT Summary

Until recently, the electric driving range of most plug-in hybrids has been lacking, and as a result those models have not suited a lot of buyers.

That is rapidly changing with brands like BYD and GWM launching new PHEVs with longer ranges. 

GWM’s first PHEV arrives in the form of the already familiar Haval H6 GT, a larger mid-size SUV that launched Down Under in petrol form in mid-2022. 

It’s an interesting strategy to roll it out to a familiar model, rather than introducing the tech on a completely new car. But soon enough GWM will have multiple PHEVs available in Australia, including the Cannon Alpha ute.

First up is the H6 GT. There’s a lot riding on this car and there is a lot more competition on the way. Is launching plug-in hybrid tech in this swoopy SUV the right move for GWM?
