Chery reached a landmark milestone earlier this month by exporting the one-millionth Tiggo 4 to global markets. The vehicle departed from Dalian Port in China, where a special event celebrated this significant achievement.
Senior executives from Chery, key members from the Dalian Free Trade Zone, global partners, and media representatives gathered to witness the momentous occasion.
“The Tiggo 4 milestone highlights its widespread recognition as a standout product in Chery’s global lineup and underscores its world-class competitiveness,” commented Verene Petersen, National Marketing Manager for Chery South Africa. “The Tiggo 4 has been instrumental in our success, with 1,172 units sold in February 2025 alone, making it one of South Africa’s most popular passenger vehicles.”
Since its debut in 2018, the Tiggo 4 has captured consumers’ attention in more than 70 countries and regions. As one of Chery’s global models, it has played a pivotal role in strengthening its international presence. In 2025, the compact SUV will enter the European market, marking a significant step in the Tiggo 4’s growth.
At the celebration, a senior executive from Chery reiterated the company’s commitment to global excellence. “Reaching the milestone of one million Tiggo 4 units exported highlights the trust our customers have placed in us,” said the executive. “As we look to the future, we will continue to prioritise our technology-driven approach, leveraging our advanced R&D, robust quality control, and efficient service networks to deliver high-quality vehicles to users worldwide.”
The strength of the Tiggo 4 lineup has not only driven sales to surpass one million units in such a short period but has also garnered acclaim from the international motoring press. The Tiggo 4 Pro DCT received the Most Improved Car of the Year accolade at the Top Gear South Africa 2024 awards.
The Tiggo 4 isn’t the only Chery product to achieve immense export success in recent months. In November 2024, the company celebrated the same milestone with the midsized Tiggo 7.
