Chery Tiggo 8 vs Proton X90
The Chery Tiggo 8 and Proton X90 are value-packed seven-seat SUVs aimed at families who want three rows, plenty of equipment and a keen price. Both undercut the established D-segment SUVs and lean on generous standard kit to win buyers.
The Tiggo 8 offers a large, feature-rich cabin and aggressive pricing from a fast-growing brand. The X90 counters with Proton’s nationwide service network, mild-hybrid efficiency and the trust of a familiar local marque.
Bottom line: The Tiggo 8 tempts with space and equipment for the money; the X90 wins on local service reach and brand familiarity. Test both before deciding.
