Chery Tiggo 4

Chery’s Tiggo 4 claims its slice of the B-segment crossover cake by giving budget-focused South Africans a real alternative to the usual suspects, and on paper at least, it’s easy to see why. You’re looking at 100 active listings between R199,900 and R469,900, with the sweet spot clustering around R281,850. That’s a massive spread. Entry-level models will keep you under the magic R250k mark, but if you want the hybrid-assisted Cross variant with all the gadgets, you’re knocking on R470k — which is hardly “budget” but does pack in a lot for the money. Every Tiggo 4 sips petrol from a 1.5-litre engine, either naturally aspirated or turbocharged. What’s different here is the laundry list of transmissions: manual, CVT, DCT, semi-auto. It’s a rare bit of actual choice, especially for a segment that’s usually “take it or leave it.” Most buyers will likely land on the Pro 1.5 LiT, with 25 cars listed between R239,600 and R269,900. The CVT variant edges a bit higher, but you’ll still keep things under R300k if you pack smart. What really jumps out is how new these used cars are: average mileage is just 8,327 km, and that’s across 2021–2026 models. Practically showroom-fresh, which really matters when you’re gambling with your savings. The hybrid Tiggo 4 Cross 1.5 HEV Elite DHT — 15 units, R417,700 to R469,900 — is the real curveball, especially for Joburg and Cape Town commutes. It brings credible fuel efficiency to the fight, something neither the Jolion nor the T-Cross can brag about at this price. And let’s be honest, physical controls and that proper SUV seating position are exactly what local buyers want — not just in theory, but on the school run and Sandton crawl.
