Chery Master Begins Tiggo 9 PHEV Deliveries
Karachi: In a landmark moment for Pakistan’s automotive industry, Chery Master Pakistan has officially commenced customer deliveries of the Tiggo 9 PHEV, marking the arrival of Pakistan’s first premium plug-in hybrid E-SUV on local roads. The milestone comes just weeks after the local CKD line-off of Tiggo 9 PHEV earlier this year, reflecting one of the fastest transitions from local production readiness to customer handover in the local industry. This accelerated rollout is backed by the manufacturing strength, operational capability and over 60 years of industrial and automotive legacy of Master Group, supported by Chery Automobile’s global engineering expertise.
The commencement of deliveries further strengthens Chery Master Pakistan’s accelerated expansion strategy, establishing Pakistan’s largest locally assembled plug-in hybrid SUV lineup within just a few months. Following the rapid back-to-back rollout of Tiggo 8 PHEV and Tiggo 9 PHEV within 5 days, alongside the launch of Tiggo 7 PHEV, Chery Master Pakistan has emerged among the fastest automotive brands to introduce three globally benchmark CKD plug-in hybrid SUV models in Pakistan’s automotive history. Following the strong response to earlier launches and ahead-of-schedule delivery rollouts, Tiggo 9 PHEV deliveries further reinforce growing customer confidence in the brand’s execution capability and long-term vision for advanced mobility in Pakistan.
Positioned as the flagship of Chery’s SUV lineup, Tiggo 9 PHEV combines long-range hybrid capability, intelligent technology and premium comfort, introducing a completely new benchmark in Pakistan’s premium SUV segment through Chery’s world’s best plug-in hybrid technology.
Powered by Chery Super Hybrid technology, Tiggo 9 PHEV delivers up to 170 km electric driving range and up to 1,400 km total driving range, producing 610 horsepower and 920 Nm of torque with all-wheel drive capability.
Inside, the Tiggo 9 PHEV features a 15.6-inch infotainment display, 14-speaker Sony audio system, massage seats, and heated and ventilated seating across both rows. Safety remains one of its strongest highlights with 10 airbags, Level 2 Plus ADAS with over 27 intelligent driving functions, and automatic parking assistance, positioning it among Pakistan’s safest and most advanced SUVs.
Commenting on the milestone, Samir Malik, CEO of Master Auto Engineering, said, “Today marks a proud milestone for Pakistan’s automotive industry. Seeing Pakistan’s first premium plug-in hybrid E-SUV reach customers within weeks of local line-off reflects the manufacturing strength, execution capability and decades of industrial legacy behind this partnership. Following the strong response to earlier launches and ahead-of-schedule deliveries, Tiggo 9 PHEV further reinforces our commitment to ensuring Pakistani customers experience the same advanced global vehicles, technologies and engineering standards shaping international markets, delivered faster than ever before without compromising on quality or engineering standards, a momentum we aim to continue with Tiggo 7 PHEV as well. With Pakistan’s largest plug-in hybrid SUV lineup, we are setting new benchmarks for speed, innovation and premium mobility in the local market.”
Globally, Chery has established itself as China’s No.1 automotive exporter for 23 consecutive years, with presence in more than 130 countries and regions and a global user base exceeding 19 million users worldwide.
Backed by Master Group’s deep-rooted automotive ecosystem and industrial footprint in Pakistan, the partnership is built on a strong foundation of manufacturing capability, localization and large-scale operational execution. Through Master Yutong, the Group has achieved approximately 80% market share in Pakistan’s bus segment, while Procon Engineering components are integrated into around 15% of locally assembled vehicles. Its joint venture with Changan has also rapidly emerged among Pakistan’s leading automotive players, becoming the country’s 4th largest automobile brand within a short span. Together, Chery and Master Group continue to strengthen customer confidence through manufacturing excellence, rapid execution and the delivery of globally benchmark technologies and engineering standards to Pakistan.
