The September shortlist
More of the family SUV for your budget
A seven-seat SUV has to earn its place on the driveway. School runs, visiting family and weekends away all ask different things of it. The useful question is how much of the equipment you want comes with the version you can afford.
The CHERY TIGGO 8 makes a strong case on that basis. Its published starting price is £28,545, while the entry Aspire includes a 15.6-inch central touchscreen, smartphone connectivity and a surround-view camera system. You can start with an equipped family car and decide whether the Summit’s extra comforts matter to you.

The value in the details
Start with the equipment you will use
The TIGGO 8’s published starting price is £8,500 below the 5008 version shown. That leaves room in a family budget to consider the specification you actually want. It is a comparison of the listed versions, rather than a promise about every dealer’s offer.
On TIGGO 8 Aspire, the camera system and front and rear parking sensors are worth trying together. Ask the team to demonstrate the view around the car, connect your phone and show you the main screen controls before your test drive.
Explore the TIGGO 8 range if heated and ventilated front seats, a panoramic sunroof or a powered tailgate are priorities. These are Summit features, so compare the grade price as well as the equipment list.
Looking beyond collection day
A longer ownership plan
CHERY’s seven-year, 100,000-mile warranty is included with a new TIGGO 8. The time allowance matches Kia’s headline cover in this comparison and extends beyond the standard three-year policies shown for Škoda and Peugeot. Hyundai offers a different benefit: unlimited mileage during its five-year term.
Think about how long you normally keep a car and your annual mileage. Then sit in all three rows, try access to the rear seats and see how your usual bags fit with the seats you need in place. Those checks will tell you more about the right family SUV than a long options list alone.
