yep exactly the same... we were going to go a Sorrento or Sportage... we test drove this and bought it then and there (without the 12 month wait of a KIA). Despite a few quirks (not being able to save seat position based of keys etc) it's an incredible value car. Tech is off the charts here. If you love your tech, you will love this car.

Planning for test drive soon, great review good news is you can get it in 2-4 weeks 😊

Toyota have gone mad with their pricing and to be honest, the quality has not kept up with the price increases. Let's not even talk about availability, that's simply woeful. Once you get used to driving the Haval H6, it's a great medium SUV and the price Vs quality and what you actually get is bloody amazing. GWM, keep up the good work and the likes of Toyota must be shitting themselves. 🙂

I really like your approach, and the way you conducted your review. It feels fare more free of any bias than other reviews. You put it in perspective nicely. As someone who is shopping for a vehicle like this, I feel that you have presented it fairly, and generally mirror my feelings as a family vehicle. I had the demonstrator in the driveway last night, and will probably purchase one and feel more confident now that its a good choice. Agreed it's not a sports car, but that's not what we want from a family SUV of this size. You have earned a subscriber.

Rav4 hybrid GXL entry model with fabric seat and cheap plastic interior cost you $49,633. Haval H6 hybrid with premium interior cost just $37k is great value for money.

Good review, thankyou, so driving on 100-110 kmh petrol engine only? So no saving on petrol? High and low speed AEB safer than low only ? Thank you

I enjoyed this review. Really focused on the hybrid and the car. I like the humour in it also 😃. Almost all good on the trans apart from the 7speed that you stated. I also thought this early on. I think that’s in the documents we got. It’s a more traditional hybrid and no 7speed gears.

@zerogeewhiz

Hi David - it definitely has a seven speed gearbox in it, it's just not obvious how it interacts with the wheels.When you say "traditional hybrid" there are largely two types - one is an electric motor packed into a gearbox or an electric motor between the gearbox and the driven wheels. Either way, the Haval is neither of these things *as far as I can tell*

Looks very nice on the inside, the rear passenger area looks huge, nice to have another option in hybrid.

Agreed, we're all moving into new territory as the Chinese cars have reach a quality that you just can't refuse at these prices anymore. The main thing is the huge 7 year warranties to give us peace of mind. The landscape is shifting, especially once you find out how many other car brands are made in China/use Chinese parts.

"Battery in located inside the powered tailgate boot...." Opening the boot manually (I guess with an emergency key) - due to a flat battery - is one able to re-calibrate the boot open/close limits WITHOUT visiting the HAVAL agents? This is an issue with the a Merc S class - unless you know the 'un-documented procedure' to re-calibrate yourself. Agents hit you hard $$$ to re-calibrate!

Imagine if no one can tell you how the drivetrain works be a very good chance no one in Australia will know how to diagnose or fix it.

I am not a fan of Sun Roofs in any car. Spec wise the GWM H6 are very good especially with the price point of the vehicles. I am looking at upgrading my vehicle to something in this class. What is a worry for me is my aim would be to keep the vehicle closer to 15 years, rather than what is standard . Is how well it will last, and the spare parts etc situation will be.

My review from test driving the ultra non hybrid 2 days ago in Brisbane. The pros: -Affordable -Auto pilot and Camera quality is on par with Tesla model 3. -Loads of safety tech even in this price. -Loads of space everywhere. -7 year warranty gives peace of mind considering it is a chinese brand. Cons: -Cheap glove box plastic, feels tacky -Horrible, absolutely horrible sound system -Turbo lag is severe. Very bad -Engine not refined (is different in the hybrid) Overall pleased with it, due to long wait times me and my wife have decided to but the hybrid when it comes in June.

Sorry, but I couldn't find any reasons to press on the like button as you seem to waffle on too much. Also, if you're going to review something, then you need to come across convincingly that you know what you're reviewing well enough and that you can relay that engagingly. Research well, familiarize yourself with all the relevant technical concepts and translate them to the viewers to the point where you're actually selling the product, even though that may not be the scope of this exercise. I know that talking to a camera while driving is challenging for anyone, other reviewers seem to be able to do it better. Either memorize a script to deliver while driving, or add a voice-over track in post-production. Also avoid including sound effects in your script as they can easily overshadow the material content in viewers' minds. All in all, there's a lot of room for improvement here.🤨
