Latin NCAP published its first crash-test results under updated 2026 protocols on October 28, 2026, giving the Chery Tiggo 2 a zero-star rating. The model is also sold in the region as the Tiggo 2 Pro, Tiggo 2 Pro Max and, in Mexico, the Chirey Tiggo 2.
Despite standard equipment including four airbags and electronic stability control, the Tiggo 2 recorded 0% for adult occupant protection and 0% for child occupant protection. Its scores were 49% for pedestrian protection and 45% for safety assist. Latin NCAP reported an unstable structure and footwell in the frontal impact, with high chest compression for the driver, and identified a fire risk during the test. The assessment also noted that side head protection is not standard, rear seats lack pretensioners and load limiters, and the vehicle has no advanced driver-assistance systems.
The result comes amid other quality concerns for Chery overseas. In Malaysia, an Omoda 5’s rear axle assembly separated in an October 6 incident, after which authorities temporarily suspended its vehicle type approval. Chery launched a recall covering 8,878 Omoda 5 C and H variants. The company exported more than 115,028 vehicles to Central and South America in the first half of 2026, making the Tiggo 2 assessment notable in a major export region.
