Chery Super Hybrid

Redefine efficiency

Chery Super Hybrid (CSH) is more than a drivetrain – it's the result of five technology generations that redefine range, efficiency and refinement.

The powertrain in four numbers

Four key figures that show why Chery Super Hybrid ranks among the most advanced hybrid systems in its class.

> 1'200 km

Range

The combustion engine and electric drive complement each other so efficiently that a full tank plus a charged battery cover long distances without a stop.

44.5 %

Thermal efficiency

The ACTECO combustion engine reaches 44.5% thermal efficiency – an industry-leading figure that few production engines match.

Active noise isolation

Refinement (NVH)

Targeted encapsulation of the engine and transmission, acoustically optimised mounts and active noise cancellation deliver a noticeably quieter cabin – even in pure-electric operation.

30–80 % · 20 min

Fast charging

A powerful battery and smart thermal management enable fast charging in everyday use – ideal even for short stops on longer journeys.

Since 2008

Five generations of hybrid technology

From the first mild-hybrid experiments to today's Chery Super Hybrid platform: a continuous development journey spanning more than 15 years.

  1. 2008

    P0 mild hybrid: the beginning

    Chery begins systematic research into electrified drivetrains – a belt-driven P0 mild-hybrid system with an integrated starter-generator lays the groundwork for every generation that follows.

  2. 2013

    P1 hybrid modules on test

    The second generation introduces an integrated P1 hybrid module between engine and transmission – short-distance electric-only driving is tested in the real world for the first time.

  3. 2018

    Plug-in hybrid reaches production

    With rechargeable batteries and a refined P1/P2 layout, the first plug-in hybrid models reach production maturity – range and efficiency improve markedly.

  4. 2021

    The breakthrough: the DHT transmission

    A purpose-built Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT) replaces conventional torque-converter automatics – stepless power delivery noticeably cuts consumption and noise.

  5. 2025

    Chery Super Hybrid: P1+P3 DHT

    The fifth generation pairs a P1+P3 DHT transmission with the high-efficiency ACTECO 1.5 TGDI engine – the technical foundation of the entire Tiggo family in Switzerland.

Transmission & battery

The DHT transmission: stepless and highly efficient

The Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT) delivers power from the combustion engine and electric motors steplessly and without shift shock – at up to 98.5% efficiency. Paired with the highly efficient fifth-generation ACTECO 1.5 TGDI engine and a fast-charging battery (30–80% in around 20 minutes), it forms the heart of Chery Super Hybrid.

Safety

Safety that thinks ahead

A high-strength body meets a comprehensive assistance suite – for maximum protection in every driving situation.

  • 85% high-strength steel in the body structure for maximum rigidity in a crash
  • Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) as part of a comprehensive driver-assistance suite
  • 540° camera system for a seamless all-round view while manoeuvring and parking
  • Multi-airbag system and 5-star safety rating for driver, passengers and pedestrians
