Chery Tiggo 5X Overview
The Tiggo 5X is Chery Auto Philippines' entry into the subcompact category of crossovers. This vehicle offers the broadest range of variants to cater to any individual that desires a crossover with an affordable price tag and space to sit 5 occupants comfortably. The model is competing against the other crossovers in the market offering a good set of features and a lot of space for not that much money.
- Launch
-
The Chery brand relaunched in the Philippines with 4 nameplates composing the lineup. Among these vehicles was the Tiggo 5X subcompact crossover. The debut was made on November 27, 2019, and marked a new chapter for the Chinese brand in the country.
In May 2021, Chery Philippines quietly released an updated version of the Tiggo 5X Luxury. The minor improvements include an updated infotainment system, rear speakers, and a new wheel design. The price of the Tiggo 5X Luxury also increased by P20,000 following this update.
- Platform, Chassis and Powertrain
-
The platform of the Tiggo 5X is a unibody chassis which is a hallmark feature of the crossover body style. It employs a car-like suspension setup with MacPherson struts in the front and a torsion beam in the rear. The vehicle rides on a set of 16-inch wheels for base models, and a 17-inch two-tone set for the top of the line Luxury model. The ground clearance metric for this crossover stands at about 190 mm.
The engine on offer in this model is a 1.5L gasoline motor attached to either a 5-speed manual or continuously variable transmission (CVT). The Tiggo 5X features power figures that are uprated from the Tiggo 2's 1.5L, netting it a total of 114 hp and 141 Nm of torque to the front wheels.
- Driving Performance
-
The Tiggo 5X drives like many of its rivals in the segment. It's reasonably powered for daily driving, the ride comfort is on par and as-expected for its segment, and the extra ground clearance allows this subcompact crossover to go over potholes and divots on the road without too much of a fuss. Handling is good, with light steering and compact dimensions. Navigating tight spots will be a breeze thanks to the visibility in the cabin and the aforementioned compact dimensions.
- Technology Features
-
In its highest trim level, the Tiggo 5X AT Luxury features a list of equipment and features that add to the overall experience with the vehicle. The infotainment system featured in the range-topping variant and the CVT variant is a 9-inch touchscreen head unit with Apple CarPlay functionality. It also has Bluetooth and USB connectivity options, as well as mirror-link. For added convenience, the model comes equipped with a smart keyless entry system with a pushbutton and remote start function. Cruise control is also standard on all CVT variants, as is a reverse camera with dynamic track, a tire pressure monitoring system, and a climate control system that features intelligent electronic control.
- Exterior
-
The Tiggo 5X features Chery's signature 'tiger crouching grille,' which gives the crossover a clean look overall. In top trims, the Tiggo receives a set of halogen projector headlamps accompanied with DRLs and a pair of fog lamps. The side features body cladding with molds giving the crossover an attractive shape, and the rear feature LED taillights and a large rear tailgate that opens up to reveal the cargo area. Up top, the Tiggo comes with a 'load-bearing luggage roof rail' for your cargo-hauling accessories in case you need roof-mounted storage.
- Interior
-
Inside, the Tiggo 5X features a leather interior on all models. Different styles are employed throughout the lineup with an 'ergonomic leather woven' upholstery found in the MT and AT variants, and an 'ergonomic luxury leather' found in the AT Luxury variant. The dashboard's design is clean and straightforward, but with multiple surfaces and materials to add contrast. On the higher trim, the Tiggo 5X features a wrapped dashboard, which is soft on the eyes and to the touch. Seating is ergonomic on all models, since they feature a 6-way adjustment, with the Luxury variant receiving a powered driver's seat. Also adding to the cabin's ambiance, the Tiggo 5X Luxury comes with a sunroof.
For total occupancy, the Tiggo can seat up to five individuals in a 2-3 seating configuration. Cargo space at the back is par for the course for any crossover in the segment, and capacity can be increased if you fold the rear seats.
- Safety
-
Standard safety systems in the Tiggo 5X model lineup include the front driver and passenger airbags, ABS with electronic brakeforce distribution, electronic anti-theft, engine immobilizer, and ISOFIX anchors for child seats.
Pros & Cons

- Heavy at about 1,300 kgs
