Chery Tiggo 2: which version to buy

The Chery Tiggo 2 was sold in 1 generation (April 2017–January 2020) as an SUV 5-doors with 2 versions: 1.5 MT and 1.5 AT. Both use the same 1497 cm³ Gasoline engine at 106 hp (78 kW) at 6000 rpm and 135 Nm at 2750 rpm, Inline 4 cylinders, 4 valves per cylinder, No boost, Front, transverse, Distributed injection (multi-point), compression 11.4, fuel 95, FWD, tank 50 L, ground clearance 186 mm.

The buy decision is not “which engine” — it is Manual 5 versus Automatic 4, plus 30 kg and 10 km/h of top speed.

This page is not a second overview of the Tiggo 2. It is a comparison of the two named versions and of what a later Tiggo 2 Pro / Pro Max search does not cover: those names are not in this model’s data. Engine oil capacity, engine number, tire size, and mpg are not measured here.

Chery Tiggo 2 vs Chery Tiggo 2 Pro (and Pro Max, 2024–2026)

People search Chery Tiggo 2 Pro, Tiggo 2 Pro Max, Tiggo 2 Pro 2024/2025/2026 specs, and prices in Qatar or Ghana. This catalogue entry is Chery Tiggo 2 only: 1 generation, production 2017-04-01 to 2020-01-31, 2 versions. There is no Pro, Pro Max, 2025, or 2026 row in these data, and there is no price field — so this article does not invent a Pro horsepower figure or a market price.

If the question is “Tiggo 2 or Tiggo 2 Pro?”, the honest answer from this file is: Tiggo 2 is the SUV 5-doors sold through January 2020 with 1.5 MT and 1.5 AT. Anything labelled Pro is a different listing.

Generations: what changed (and what did not)

1 generation (April 2017–January 2020): SUV 5-doors, 2 versions, no restyling listed as a separate generation.

There is no second generation in the data, so there is no “later gen gained X hp” story. Both versions share the same production window. The generation did not split power, displacement, drive, tank, or clearance between years. The only split is gearbox and the numbers that move with it.

Specs table: 1.5 MT vs 1.5 AT

Same peak power, same peak torque, same displacement, same Gasoline and FWD. The table’s real columns for a buyer are Manual 5 vs Automatic 4.

Engine: size, horsepower, and what both versions share

Engine size is 1497 cm³ on 1.5 MT and 1.5 AT. Horsepower is 106 hp (78 kW) at 6000 rpm on both. Torque is 135 Nm at 2750 rpm on both.

Specific output: 106 hp / 1.497 L ≈ 70.8 hp per litre (both versions). Torque per litre: 135 / 1.497 ≈ 90.2 Nm per litre (both).

There is no turbo to choose: nadduv is No on both. Fuel is 95. Compression is 11.4. Induction is Distributed injection (multi-point). Engine position is Front, transverse. 4 Inline cylinders, 4 valves per cylinder.

Engine oil capacity, oil grade, engine number, engine support, and a service-manual oil figure are not measured. Do not treat a missing oil volume as “this engine has no oil capacity.”

Buying on engine character is a dead end: the two versions are the same engine. You are buying how that engine is geared and how much the car weighs.

Performance and mpg: the numbers that actually differ

0–100 km/h: not measured for 1.5 MT and not measured for 1.5 AT. This article will not rank sprint times.

Top speed: 170 km/h (1.5 MT) vs 160 km/h (1.5 AT). The automatic is 10 km/h slower at the limiter. That is the only measured performance gap.

Fuel consumption (mpg / city / highway / combined): not measured for both. CO2: not measured. Eco class: not measured. Searches for Tiggo 2 Pro mpg cannot be answered from these rows.

What you can infer without inventing litres/100 km: 1.5 AT is 30 kg heavier and has 4 gears instead of 5. Heavier + fewer ratios usually costs economy, but the measured consumption columns are empty, so this page does not publish an mpg number.

Weight, dimensions, tank, tires

Kerb weight: 1290 kg (1.5 MT), 1320 kg (1.5 AT). Difference: +30 kg on the automatic (about 2.3%).

Gross weight: not measured for both.

Power-to-weight:

The manual carries about 0.28 kg less per horsepower. On a 106 hp Gasoline FWD SUV that is a small but real gap, and it lines up with the 10 km/h top-speed gap.

Ground clearance: 186 mm on both — no “higher AT” or “lower MT” choice.

Tank: 50 L on both. Range cannot be computed: consumption is not measured.

Tire size / wheel size: not measured for both. Dimensions (length, width, height, wheelbase): not measured. Searches for Tiggo 2 size, Tiggo 2 Pro dimensions, and Tiggo 2 Pro Max dimensions are unanswered by this file.

Chassis that is listed is identical: front Independent, spring; rear Semi-independent, spring; front brakes Ventilated disc; rear Disc. Suspension and brakes do not pick a winner.

Which version to choose

Choose 1.5 MT if the measured gaps matter

1.5 MT is the lighter, faster-at-the-top, more-geared version:

You are not buying more engine. You are buying 30 kg less mass, one extra ratio, and a 10 km/h higher measured maximum. 0–100 is still not measured, so do not treat 1.5 MT as a proven quicker 0–100 car — only as the version with better kg/hp and higher top speed.

Choose 1.5 AT if you want Automatic and will pay in mass and top speed

1.5 AT is the same 106 hp Gasoline Inline 4 with Automatic 4 and FWD. What it “buys” in this dataset is the gearbox type, not extra power, extra torque, AWD, a larger tank, or more clearance.

What it costs in the numbers:

There is no price in the data, so “extra money” cannot be a currency figure. The extra you take on is 30 kg and 10 km/h, in exchange for Automatic instead of Manual.

Do not choose by generation, Pro badge, or oil capacity

Short rule

Same engine, same drive, same clearance, same tank. If you want the lower kerb weight, the 5-speed Manual, and 170 km/h, take 1.5 MT. If you want Automatic, take 1.5 AT and accept 1320 kg and 160 km/h. If you need 0–100, mpg, tire size, or exterior dimensions, those fields are not measured on either version.
