Haval has been making significant strides locally with an influx of new models. Now, their local portfolio is more extensive with the introduction of the brand's first-ever H6 hybrid electric vehicle.
The SUV is relatively unassuming on the outside, with standout features like LED headlights, a sporty rear spoiler, a panoramic sunroof, and beefy 19-inch alloy wheels.
The H6 is powered by a turbocharged 1.5-litre petrol engine with outputs of 179kW and 530Nm, and an electric motor mated to a two-speed Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT) with torque launch. The Chinese firm claims a fuel consumption figure of only 5.2-litres/100km.

Brand representatives at the H6 GT's launch earlier in September mentioned the brand will be pushing the envelope for hybrid models in the future, so expect more mild-ICE offerings to be introduced.
The model comes with a five-year or 60 000km service plan, a five-year or 100 000km mechanical warranty, and an eight-year or 150 000km battery warranty.
