The Tiggo 8 Pro has a lot of tricks in its bag

One of the places the midsize crossover set its wheels on since its Philippine debut is on Mount Samat in Bataan where we were invited to test its capabilities. The ADAS made us feel confident driving the vehicle even during high-speed cornering, while the power delivery is adequate despite using the smallest 1.6-liter turbo engine.
