On the very first day, AvtoSpetsTsentr Khimki became the first official Tenet dealer in Moscow to deliver the new car to a customer. For a debut, combining a proven base with local assembly makes for a pragmatic entry.Notably, the buyer who ultimately took home the new T7 had planned to swap a Chery Tiggo 7 Pro for the updated Chery Tiggo 7L, but after reviewing Tenet’s lineup opted for the domestically assembled T7. The choice looks logical given the familiar underpinnings and local build.According to the owner of Moscow’s first Tenet T7, many years behind the wheel and experience with different cars led to an appreciation of the advantages of Chinese brands, which prompted the decision to try the new T7. They were confident it was the right move, noting an optimal price, a striking design, and strong technical characteristics that, in their view, hold their own against familiar European marques—adding that their new car is clear proof of how these brands keep improving.
