Printed option prices only. A pack is counted once and makes the figure a floor when it carries no printed price. Nothing is inferred from the other car.
A plug-in hybrid is compared on its fuel use as a hybrid (battery depleted), the figure that is like for like with the other car; its certified combined figure, which assumes every trip starts with a full battery, is printed under it. Electric range is how far it goes before the petrol engine is needed.

Estimates from usable battery size and the car's max charge rates (6.6kW AC, 40kW DC). Real times vary with temperature, starting charge, charger output and the charging curve.
Feature Showdown
The Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid features a 12.3-inch touchscreen paired with a 12.3-inch digital dash, while the Toyota Corolla Sedan gets a 8-inch display and 12.3-inch instruments. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard across both.

Equipment few rivals have, on either carShowHide
Drivetrain
The Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid uses a Petrol I4 Turbo + PHEV producing 180kW and 310Nm of torque, sent through a 1-speed dedicated hybrid transmission (dht) to a FWD layout. It covers the 0-100km/h sprint in 9.5 seconds.
The Toyota Corolla Sedan responds with a 1.8L 4-cyl VVT-i Hybrid making 103kW and 142Nm, paired to a cvt driving the front wheels. It gets to 100km/h in 8.1 seconds.
The Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid has the clear power advantage at 180kW vs 103kW. In the 0-100 sprint (manufacturer-claimed), the Toyota Corolla Sedan is 1.4s quicker. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.
Space & Comfort
The Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid measures 4,535mm long on a 2,653mm wheelbase, 95mm shorter than the Toyota Corolla Sedan at 4,630mm (2,700mm wheelbase). The longer wheelbase on the Toyota Corolla Sedan generally means more rear legroom.
Boot space is 475L in the Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid and 471L in the Toyota Corolla Sedan, giving the Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid a 4L advantage.
Neither U-turns in one sweep on a 7 m local street (both need a three-point turn); the Toyota Corolla Sedan's turning circle is 0.4 m tighter, 10.8 m against 11.2 m kerb to kerb. The street estimate is indicative, worked from the published turning circles.
Cost to own
We do not hold a like-for-like fuel or energy figure for both cars, so we do not cost them against each other.
Warranty: 7 years / Unlimited (Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid) and 5 years / Unlimited (Toyota Corolla Sedan). Capped-price servicing: 7 years (Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid), no data (Toyota Corolla Sedan).
Where each one leads
The Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid: more power (180kW against 103kW), the bigger boot with the seats up (475L against 471L) and the longer warranty (7 years against 5).
The Toyota Corolla Sedan: nothing in the figures we hold puts it ahead of the Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid.
The Verdict
Toyota Corolla Sedan scores higher, 76 vs 71
The Toyota Corolla Sedan scores 76 to the Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid's 71 on the CarSorted Score, and leads 1 of the 5 spec rows that separate them. The biggest gaps: technology (Toyota Corolla Sedan ahead by 24 points), safety (Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid ahead by 21 points), value (Toyota Corolla Sedan ahead by 11 points). Warranty: 7 years on the Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid, 5 on the Toyota Corolla Sedan.

How to read this page. Prices, specifications, ANCAP ratings, warranty, the CarSorted Score and the verdict come from our records for the grades shown, sourced from the manufacturers' Australian documents, and change when those records change; the date each was last checked is printed under the headline. Prices are recommended retail prices before on-road costs unless marked drive-away. A plug-in hybrid's fuel figure is labelled with its basis: with a full battery (the certified combined figure) or as a hybrid (battery depleted). Charging and running costs are estimates on the stated assumptions. Always confirm price and specification with the manufacturer or dealer before you buy. CarSorted does not accept payment for recommendations.
