The design of the production Exeed LX is previewed by the Exeed LX concept car released in 2018. [1] In July 2019, the production Exeed LX compact crossover was revealed based on the same platform as the first generation Chery Tiggo 7 while featuring restyled front and rear ends. Exeed is the premium brand of Chery marketed towards the European market, and the LX is the second model under the brand following the Exeed TX. Interior-wise, the LX designs are completely different from Tiggo 7, with the instrument panel and multimedia screen integrated as a single set. The central console is floating and houses the gearshift knob and the digital air conditioning controls. [2]
