The Fortuner has the largest dimensions in this comparison. However, it’s not the one with the most power. Oshan and Chery Tiggo come out at the top in terms of power. Oshan has the highest low-end torque, while Chery Tiggo takes the lead in horsepower figures. 

Comfort Features Comparison

These are not cheap vehicles and therefore you shouldn’t expect anything less than premium when it comes to comfort. All offer a premium riding experience. However, some may take the lead in overall comfort and quality with superior comfort features. Let’s compare.

Neither of these vehicles will disappoint you in terms of comfort and convenience. Wait! Fortuner, despite being the most expensive of all, lacks a panoramic sunroof, headlight adjustments, and 3rd row AC vents, among many other safety and convenience features. Tiggo 8 Pro is loaded with comfort features that make it a good value for money vehicle in Pakistan. 

Safety Features Comparison

Safety should be the utmost priority of every vehicle. Basic features like ABS, EBD, auto hold, traction control, and immobilizer are standard in all cars. Find out more details in the table below.

Tiggo 8 pro is the safest of all with its advanced safety features. Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) enhances on-road safety with lane detection, forward collision, auto braking, and adaptive cruise control. More airbags lower the risk of impact as a post-collision measure. Fortuner 2.7 G, despite being a complete SUV, doesn’t have Hill Start Assist and other advanced safety features.

Price Comparison

In the end it’s the price that matters the most. Car industry in Pakistan is struggling with soaring car prices. Many are switching to SUVs from sedans due to the minimal price difference. At such times these value to money SUVs make more sense. Here below are the prices of Chery Tiggo 8 pro as compared to the rest of SUVs.

ModelsPrice (Rs)
Chery Tiggo 8 Pro6,599,000
Oshan X7 Comfort5,750,000 
Fortuner 2.7G9,499,000
KIA Sorento 2.4 FWD6,836,000

Simply put, the Oshan X7 Comfort is the most value for money vehicle at the given price. Then comes the Tiggo 8 Pro. However, buying a new brand with fewer dealerships and service networks can be worrisome for some. This can affect the sales of Chery Tiggo. 

Which is the best 7-seater SUV?

So who wins? You may have already guessed – Oshan X7. Although it comes short of ADAS features, it still packs in a solid punch. The price difference of Rs.849,000 isn’t worth the extra features you will get in Chery Tiggo 8 Pro. Fortuner offers worse value for money, and if you are only buying Fortuner 2.7G for offroading. It’s not a 4 by 4 off-road vehicle, it’s a rear-wheel drive powered by a 2.7-liter engine making it an underpowered car.

That’s all from our side. Let us know in the comments section which SUV is the best according to you and why?

  1. I think tiggo 8 pro is best SUV , because of its built Quality and full of features and it’s a complete package for a family, it has Adas features and all basic features, there is nothing missing in tiggo 8 pro, but there is something something missing in other competitors, like there is no safety features like ADAS in any other competitors , features wise and engine power figure wise and luxury wise the tiggo 8 pro is winer,
    And just price wise we can say that Oshan X7 is value for money, just because of its cheap price,
    And Chery Tiggo 8 pro is a complete 7 seater package with power and features, that is really Good And necessery for A family, and in a family 7 seater SUV ,
