So, in their native China, the most “prestigious” versions carry the prefixes Plus and Pro, and in Russia there are still rich all-wheel drive modifications with a double “surname” — Pro Max. Meanwhile, the company also does not forget about the “simple” Tiggo 8: a modified SUV has just been presented in its homeland. As usual, the refreshed G8 has been given a separate name – Honor Edition.
