CHERY TIGGO (2005-CURRENT)

We Say...
A look at the Tiggo and you'd swear you've seen it before. Yes, it's the previous-generation Toyota RAV4 in all but name and execution. Everything from the way the doors open to the seating position, belt line and interior knick-knacks are close facsimiles. Powered by a 1.6-liter ACTECO engine, there's not enough push, but they, these things aren't about speed are they?
Previous generation Toyota RAV4 priced cheaper than a Suzuki Jimny.
You get the looks but don't get the quality, badge or execution.
