As the global shift toward sustainable mobility accelerates, Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) are proving to be the smart, realistic bridge between traditional combustion and full electrification. This is especially true for regions like the Middle East—where vast distances, high temperatures, and advanced infrastructure shape the daily driving experience.
Engineered for the UAE’s Unique Conditions
Plug-in hybrids seamlessly blend electric innovation with proven engine reliability, giving drivers the perfect balance between clean urban commuting and long-distance confidence. Designed with the UAE’s environment in mind—where cross-emirate commutes and weekend getaways can span hundreds of kilometers—Chery’s new Plug-In Hybrid range is built to perform under pressure.
Both the TIGGO 9 Plug-In Hybrid SUV and the Arrizo 8 Plug-In Hybrid sedan have been meticulously engineered to withstand extreme heat while maximizing performance. Featuring a sophisticated three-speed hybrid transmission and a powertrain optimized for desert conditions, the TIGGO 9 Plug-In Hybrid boasts a dual-motor system delivering an exceptional 610 horsepower and 920 Nm of torque. Whether cruising through downtown Abu Dhabi or gliding effortlessly across desert highways, these vehicles inspire total confidence behind the wheel.
Performance Meets Practical Efficiency
Modern drivers demand both power and practicality—and Chery delivers exactly that. The TIGGO 9 Plug-In Hybrid, equipped with a high-capacity 34.46 kWh battery, achieves a remarkable combined driving range of up to 1,200 km on a full charge and tank, offering unmatched flexibility across electric, hybrid, and sport driving modes.
Meanwhile, the Arrizo 8 Plug-In Hybrid brings refined sedan sophistication to the segment, combining sleek design with hybrid intelligence to deliver an ideal balance of efficiency and driving pleasure. Inside, both models emphasize comfort, luxury, and safety—with features such as up to 10 airbags, a premium 14-speaker sound system in the TIGGO 9, and advanced cabin-quiet technology that turns every journey into a calm, upscale experience.
Designed for Modern Lifestyles
These PHEVs integrate effortlessly into daily life. In the city, the electric mode ensures smooth, silent drives with zero local emissions, while hybrid operation extends the range for long-distance travel without compromise. Perfect for both families and professionals, they promise lower fuel costs, reduced emissions, and worry-free convenience—no matter the destination.
Aligned with the UAE’s Net Zero Vision
Supporting the UAE’s Net Zero 2050 strategy, Chery’s Plug-In Hybrid lineup represents a pivotal step toward a fully electric future. These vehicles help consumers embrace eco-friendly driving without giving up performance or practicality.
“Plug-in hybrids offer a seamless and empowering driving experience for consumers in the Middle East,” said Zaher Sabbagh, Director of Chery UAE. “They give drivers the confidence, flexibility, and power they desire while supporting the nation’s environmental ambitions. The TIGGO 9 and Arrizo 8 Plug-In Hybrids perfectly embody how sustainability and modern living can move forward together.”
The Road Ahead: Sustainable Mobility Without Limits
As EV infrastructure expands and awareness of environmental responsibility grows, Plug-In Hybrids are set to play a central role in the UAE’s sustainable mobility landscape. With vehicles like the TIGGO 9 and Arrizo 8 Plug-In Hybrids, Chery UAE demonstrates that green mobility can be as aspirational as it is practical—crafted for global excellence, yet tuned perfectly to meet the demands of Middle Eastern roads.
