Already on the road, the internal combustion engine acts as traction, while the electric ones begin to function as energy generators. And if the driver has to step on the pedals to overtake, the three motors work together to unleash torque and power. It is worth mentioning that the Caoa Chery Tiggo 8 Pro Hybrid has a brake system with energy regeneration, which is also achieved during deceleration.The battery with a capacity of 19.27 kWh is always charged, as the three motors act as current generators at different times. But, being a plug-in hybrid, the battery can be fully recharged from the mains in three hours.
