Which seven-seat plug-in hybrid?
Chery Tiggo 8 vs MG S9
The Tiggo 8 is the cheaper way to seven seats. The S9 is the better car to sit in. Fifty pounds a month is the whole difference, which makes this a question about the driver rather than the budget.

Which should you take?
If the car is a tool (seven seats, occasionally, for a business that needs them) the Tiggo 8 does the job for less and its 745-mile combined figure means long trips do not turn into a charging plan. If somebody is going to drive it every day, the S9 is worth the £50: the specification is from a segment above and that is felt on every journey rather than once a quarter.

How to read these listings
Prices: Monthly rentals shown are guide prices and exclude VAT unless labelled otherwise. They are indicative “from” figures quoted against a 12-month term at the mileage allowance shown for the vehicle, and they move with the exact variant, the mileage, the initial rental and the outcome of underwriting. Last reviewed 1 September 2026. We confirm your actual monthly rental, and what it includes, in writing before anything is agreed.
Images: Vehicle images are computer-generated illustrations of a representative example, not photographs of the vehicle supplied. Exact trim, colour, body length, roof height and equipment vary by specification.
Availability: Listings show the vehicles we can supply, not stock held on site. Specific variants, trim levels, body conversions and delivery dates depend on factory lead times and availability at the time you order, and some vehicles are build-to-order. Nothing is reserved for your business until we confirm it in writing. If we cannot get the exact vehicle you have asked for, we will tell you and set out the closest alternative we can. Delivery is to business addresses in England and Wales, and we confirm the arrangements, the timing and any delivery cost on your quote.
