Chery provides premium-level technology and luxury features as standard at a significantly lower price point than established rivals. It officially launched its SUV lineup in the UK in 2025, offering 3 primary models for lease. The Chery Tiggo 7 is a mid-sized, 5-seat family SUV available with either a 1.6-litre petrol engine or as a 'Super Hybrid' (PHEV). The Chery Tiggo 8  is a larger, 7-seat SUV geared towards families. Then there's the Chery Tiggo 9, which is the flagship model; a premium 7-seat 'Super Hybrid' SUV. It typically features all-wheel drive (AWD) and an extended electric range.

Chery's notable for being China's largest vehicle exporter for over 20 consecutive years and the brand offers one of the longest warranties of any car manufacturer. You can lease a Chery on a personal lease or a business lease, choosing the ideal model for your needs.

Which is the best Chery to lease?

The Chery Tiggo 7 offers an unbeatable standard equipment-to-price ratio. It undercuts rivals like the Kia Sportage while offering a premium cabin with dual 12.3-inch screens.

Budget-conscious families or commuters looking for a stylish crossover that feels more expensive than its lease price suggests, might gravitate towards this vehicle. The "Super Hybrid" version is particularly strong for those wanting a petrol-free daily commute (up to 56 miles EV range) without a full EV commitment.

The Chery Tiggo 8 offers affordable 7-seat versatility. It was named Carwow's Car of the Year 2026 for its "insanely cheap" lease rates for a large SUV. Larger families who need 3 rows of seats but find European or Korean 7-seaters too expensive, will appreciate the price of this lease. It’s also a smart choice for business leasers needing a practical fleet vehicle with low BIK tax in its plug-in hybrid form.

The Tiggo 9 offers luxury flagship performance. This model features a high-powered 430hp AWD "Super Hybrid" system and an industry-leading 91-mile electric-only range, allowing it to rival premium SUVs like the Volvo XC90 for nearly half the price. Tech-focused professionals or eco-conscious families who want a luxury "grand tourer" feel, massage seats, and maximum electric range without paying large monthly premiums will appreciate everything this vehicle offers.

Can I lease a Chery EV? 

While you cannot currently lease a vehicle badged as a "Chery EV," you can lease fully electric cars from its dedicated electric sister brand, Omoda, which is part of the same parent group, in the form of the Omoda E5. Another sub-brand from the Chery group, Jaecoo, offers another vehicle, by the same name of E5, which is a more rugged, premium-positioned electric SUV.

Who are Chery's direct competitors?

Chery's direct competitors are primarily other value-focused automotive manufacturers, with a heavy emphasis on fellow Chinese brands expanding globally (such as MG and BYD) as well as established mainstream brands known for affordable SUVs (like Kia, Hyundai, and Nissan).

Your Chery leasing questions answered

Leasing a Chery is often considered a smarter move because it eliminates the financial risks associated with a new manufacturer, such as uncertain resale values.Leasing means you never own the car, so you aren't affected if its market value drops significantly. It typically requires a much smaller initial payment compared to the large deposit or full cash price needed to buy.

Lease payments are fixed and often lower than standard finance because you only pay for the car's depreciation over the contract term rather than its full value.

 

The cost of leasing a Chery vehicle will fluctuate based on the specific model you choose and the terms outlined in your leasing contract. Factors such as contract duration, initial deposit, and mileage allowance will impact your monthly payments. For example, a larger initial deposit and longer contract would mean your resulting monthly payments are lower.

Chery plug-in hybrid (PHEV) models, such as the Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 8, offer approximately 55–56 miles (roughly 90 km) of electric-only range from an 18.4kWh-21kWh battery. Total combined range for these models exceeds 700–750 miles. The upcoming Tiggo 9 flagship offers a superior 90+ mile electric range. 

Chery distinguishes itself through in-house technology development, a focus on "Super Hybrid" powertrains, and a rapid, "China speed" approach to bringing new, well-equipped SUV models to market.

Its 7-year/100,000-mile warranty comes as standard and means that since most leases last 2 to 4 years, the vehicle remains under full manufacturer protection for the entire duration of your contract.
