Overview
In July 2019, the Exeed LX compact crossover was revealed based on the same platform as the first generation Chery Tiggo 7 while featuring restyled front and rear ends. Exeed is the premium brand of Chery marketed towards the European market, and the LX is the second model under the brand following the Exeed TX. Interior-wise, the LX designs are completely different from Tiggo 7, with the instrument panel and multimedia screen integrated as a single set. The central console is floating and houses the gearshift knob and the digital air conditioning controls.[1]
The power of the Exeed LX comes from a 1.6-liter turbo engine producing 197 hp and an estimated torque of 30 kgfm. The transmission of the Exeed LX is an automated seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Exeed LX has a length of 4533mm, a width of 1848mm, a height of 1699mm, and a wheelbase of 2670mm. The Exeed LX will be launched on the Chinese car market in the fourth quarter of 2019 with pricing to start around 130,000 yuan ($18,950).[2]
Brazilian market
Caoa Chery in Brazil is the producer and distributor of products from Exeed, with the first Exeed model commercialized in the Brazilian market from the first quarter of 2021. The LX crossover SUV was chosen for the debut of Exeed in Brazil due to the T1X platform and other components shared with the Tiggo 7 made in Anápolis.[3]
