Haval " H6 " Dedicated Discussion, Owner/ Fan Club Thread

Yes, GWM recognizes they have issues with their suspension systems for Intl. customers. They hired Rob Trubiani (Vehicles Dynamics Engineer) from Holden (former GM, Current GM speciality). He is kind of a legend when it comes to engineering vehicle dynamics.

He is based in Australia, since that is GWMs largest market outside of China. Improvements there are surely to trickle in over time here as well

Paul from Car expert in his latest h6 review. Quite honest reviewer. I guess a lot of potential buyers should see his reviews before buying

Hey folks, long time reader, first time poster. I've been looking at one of these for a good while now but I am not sure which one I should pull the trigger on. For someone who will be using it sparingly (which is why the HEV is out), is the 2.0T enough of an upgrade over the base variant to justify paying the 1.7M price difference? Has anyone had a chance to drive both? What's the consensus on this?

Pretty new to cars so I am not sure where to draw the VFM line.

[ArslanNawaz]

Gotta love haval man, they're building quite a lineup

[JunaidDogar]

1.5T is VFM at the moment.

[pwuser167332590619]

Is this H6 phev GT or ?

[mirza.ghalib]

Taking down payment (booking) without revealing the specs must be discouraged.

[ArslanNawaz]

H6 awd phev not gt

2.0 AWD is a 'shokeen bandon' ki gari. The price difference isn't justified unless you really want AWD and that extra power (the power difference is a lot though).

[Waqar29]

its 1.5 turbo AWD with 360hp and 760Nm torque. 0-100 in 4.8 seconds with different steering and mobile app with over 40 controls

[pwuser167550015690]

This is honestly very good pricing for the PHEV and is THE variant which I originally wanted. I'd say it's the best value for money model now.

Now I'm very tempted to sell mine and get the PHEV instead because it seems like it might even have Coffee OS as well. At least all other markets with GWM App integration have Coffee OS running.

[sohaibshaddy1]

This is a really good setup. Supports fast charging, good power figure, AWD with high torque is also the right configuration. Gonna get this replacing Sonata 2.5 soon.

So, looking at the Aussie specs for the 4WD and 2WD PHEV, I see that they have removed the front parking sensors (why) and reduced rear to 4 from 6. This also implies that it will not have auto parking or auto reverse (also indicated in the brochure linked). Why would they do that?

Unless a type, this seems to be a strange omission. Both do have a 9 speaker system though.

EDIT:
Thai specs have both; 6 sensors front + back as well as intelligent parking and reverse and also mention app control.

[devils_smile]

the thai version also has the single rear light like the pre-facelift. Just wondering if that change will come on the phev?

I was planning on booking the hev this week but now wondering if I should book the phev instead. The showroom had offered me a white with black interior H6 hev for 12750000 and I was considering it but didn't go for it and decided i'll wait for the 2 months

[alitayyab]

THe PHEV is the version to get. Curious about the change in sensors/ features in the Australian version

[zee5han]

Is there any external look wise changes to differentiate the PHV from lets say the 1.5? If I had it i'd hate that my 13 million car looks exactly same as a getleman driving a 9.5 mill car

Spoke to the GWM guy here in Islamabad -- it's not GT.
