Chery Unveils Next-Gen Super Hybrid System with 2,000 km Range - Carr.pk

Chinese automaker Chery has revealed the latest generation of its Super Hybrid plug‑in hybrid system, claiming a combined driving range of up to 2,000 kilometers — fuelled by a full petrol tank and a fully charged battery. The breakthrough places Chery among the leaders in long‑range hybrid technology worldwide.

The advanced hybrid drivetrain is expected to be fitted to future iterations of Chery’s popular SUVs, including the Tiggo 7, Tiggo 8 and Tiggo 9, with the brand targeting global launches from late 2026.

At its core, the new setup pairs a 1.5‑liter turbocharged four‑cylinder petrol engine with an electric motor and an upgraded 18.46 kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, which Chery says has improved energy density and durability compared with previous packs.

The petrol engine’s thermal efficiency has been boosted to a claimed 44.5 per cent, making it one of the most efficient hybrid engines in its class. Transmission upgrades further enhance overall power delivery and fuel economy.

Chery will offer two system variants:
  • DHT160 – producing 160 kW and 275 Nm of torque
  • DHT230 – producing 260 kW and 330 Nm, aimed at heavier vehicles and larger SUVs.

Analysts note that this distance target significantly exceeds the ~1,200 km range typical of current Super Hybrid models like the Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 8, which already lead many competitors in hybrid mileage.

In Pakistan, Chery has already launched the Tiggo 8 PHEV and recently introduced the Tiggo 9 PHEV, with plans to bring the Tiggo 7 PHEV to the market as well.

Industry experts say the arrival of the next‑gen Super Hybrid system could further boost Chery’s competitiveness locally, offering economy‑focused customers a compelling option against traditional petrol vehicles — particularly given rising fuel costs and demand for greener alternatives.

Chery has not yet confirmed exact launch timelines for Pakistan, but the brand has indicated the new system will debut in China this year before rolling out to global markets.
