00:00This is the Cherry 209 Super Hybrid, the brand's flagship seven-seat SUV.
00:04I've just put this thing through its paces for the entire holidays.
00:08These are my favorite features.
00:11The first thing that caught my eye was the technology.
00:14It's a combination of a 15.6-inch infotainment touchscreen
00:17with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
00:19and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster for the driver.
00:22You pop your phone on this 50-watt wireless charging pad to keep it topped up
00:25while you're using Apple CarPlay and banging tunes
00:27on the Sony 14-speaker audio system with two headrest speakers.
00:31Some of my favorite creature comforts include heated, ventilated,
00:33and massaging leather front seats
00:35while even the rear outboard passengers get heating.
00:37Finally, it's the Intelligence, the Auto Parking Assist,
00:40which is a first for the Tigo family,
00:41an intelligent voice command, Halo Cherry,
00:43to control some of the vehicle's key features when you're in a pinch.
00:46So the amazing thing is you're getting all of this luxury and technology
00:49on the inside of the vehicle,
00:51and then it continues here under the bottom and underneath the skin of the car
00:55because you do have an engine in this vehicle.
00:57While you can run it completely on the batteries and the electric motors alone
01:01for 170 kilometers of range,
01:03for those longer journeys where you might be taking a weekend away with the family,
01:07you can lean on the engine a little bit more
01:09and this super hybrid system that Cherry has introduced into the Australian market,
01:13bringing 1,250 kilometers of total range,
01:18and that's pretty mind-blowing if you ask me.
01:20So you get all of that for the scarcely believable price that's above my head right now
01:25and also 7 years unlimited kilometer warranty,
01:288 years battery warranty,
01:30and then 7 years of roadside assistance and cap price servicing.
01:33I mean, that's a deal that even I can hardly believe.
