Very nice design with hyper-short front and rear overhang. Black wheel arches and roof rails, usable ones, in crossover style. Wheels are a tad too small but racy alloys look great.

The Chery Tiggo 3X will initially only be available with a 106hp 1.5 liter petrol, and that sounds seriously underpowered. The engine will be mated to a six-speed manual or CVT. Happily, a juicier 1.2 turbo will become available in early 2017 with some 150 horses in stock. That should do the job. Size: 4200/1760/1570, and wheelbase is 2555.
