Verdict
At RM88,800, the Chery Tiggo Cross costs RM31,100 less and still gets a seven-year/150,000 km warranty, adaptive cruise control, autonomous braking and a 360-degree camera. The RM119,900 Neta Neta X is the larger EV: its 52.49 kWh battery is rated for 401 km, while its 508-litre boot carries 128 litres more than the Chery’s. Its 160 hp motor also matches the Tiggo Cross’s 210 Nm torque figure. Choose the Neta if home or workplace charging suits your routine; otherwise the cheaper Chery has the more complete active-safety kit.
Pick the Chery Tiggo Cross if you want to save RM31,100 and value its seven-year warranty, adaptive cruise control and autonomous braking.
Pick the Neta Neta X if you have dependable charging and need its 401 km EV range, 508-litre boot and larger cabin footprint.
