Haval H6 2021 review | cheap Tucson and CX-5 rival tested | Chasing Cars

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

We test the new Haval H6 SUV and see whether this midsize crossover is seriously good enough.
Subscribe: bit.ly/3fnfVTQ | Visit Chasing Cars: bit.ly/2DpFZQP
The 2021 Haval H6 is one of the cheapest midsize SUVs on sale. Despite having a generous level of equipment, the new H6 is cheaper than a base model Hyundai Tucson, Mazda CX-5, Volkswagen Tiguan or Ford Escape. So, what’s the catch? Well, in some ways the new Haval is not as good as those cars - but in other ways, it makes mainstream SUVs seem quite expensive. The Haval H6 starts at $30,990, before heading to $33,990 for the tested Haval H6 Lux and then on to $38,990 for an H6 Ultra AWD.

    Will you consider a new challenger brand when you buy your next car? Or do you get what you pay for with the old guard? (Note: one mistake in the video - I claimed the H6 was not on the same basic platform as the Jolion. It is, in fact, also on the Lemon platform, as used by the Jolion).

    In China the top trim price is around 30k, but considering longer service and importing cost, it is still very good value in current car market. Based on what I knew so far, when hybrid H6 comes to AU market, it will be the game changer. In China, this car keep number one in this small SUV market for 9 years! If it is not reliable it could get there. Back to 50 years ago, West customer said Japanese cars are shit boxes, then 20 years ago the same happened to Korean car. Now you can see their performance across the whole world. Despite of the political tension between AU and China, couple of Chinese bands can make really good cars, offer buyers much more than their expectation but with cheaper price comparing to other bands. If couple of more Chinese brands can join the competition will benefit all Australia customers.

That would buy some better dampers and still leave a lot of change. It’s well worth considering in my view.

    I am from South Africa, and of course, we always get these vehicles with some changes to them although in this case very little difference. Expect the price jump with the poor Rand in SA makes upper SUV's a poor choice the H6 price comes in well below most of the SUV's in the competing market segment. And it's pretty impressive the occasional head bobbing as you explained it was almost hilarious to me but I guess it is an Ausie thing. The H6 was reviewed here was very favorable even considered better than BWM X3 SUV. Which is a much higher spec than some of the brands you mentioned.

    I have drived the ultra top spec. Here is my review: Positive -Packed with tech -Nice looking dash -Cooled seat are great for australia summer -USB ports everywhere -large space at boot -powerful engine -great noise insulation -price and warranty Negative -unpolished details and finish ( disgusting cheap plastic at back seat doors and speaker covers ) -doors are heavy and not smooth ( never seen doors open and close as bad as this) -seats aren't deep enough -no built in GPS -limited interior for australia ( no bronze dash no door and dash ambient light) - bouncy suspension - steering wheel has no road feedback and feel disengaged -Can't be used for Uber due to not having safety check -hard to sell - not very fuel economy -accessing to cars features is difficult while you are driving and cause frustration or accident.... Conclusion This car could turned into great product if factory address those raised issue. At the moment car factories has upper hand due to covid situation push higher margins for fancy options in their car. I hope cars such as h6 create pressure on other brands to make their high option prices more fare for consumers.

    I think you're being extremely picky there. "Unpolished details and finish" just for the plastic in the back seat? The rest of the car feels more premium that others that are 10k more expensive. You won't find this build quality in any other car remotely close to this price. As for the GPS... With Android Auto/Apple Car Play, who needs built-in GPS? Now.. "Can't be used for Ubber"... really?... maybe you're looking at the wrong car mate. I mean... you don't buy a "premium finished" car just to have strangers get on it on a regular basis. I appreciate the detail but I think you're looking for things that don't belong to the segment/purpose of the car, and considering them as "negatives".

    I test drove the H6 and had to talk via mobile phone the whole time as it was covid safe & zero human interaction. I have 2 mobile phones, one for work & one for private. I called myself on the haval blue tooth using mobile. it is as clear as my iPhone 12 Pro. The microphone is top notch. I had the car for 1.5 hours and test drove it & tried out lots. I bought I ended up with the Ultra 4WD after driving the 2WD which lurches a lot because it is so powerful. The 4WD drive is much better without the lurching.I pick my new on up ion Friday.

    I worked for a great wall dealership before the Haval was released in Australia, China still referred referred their suv range as Haval, long before we got haval, we had the greatwall X series suv, which were very boxy and ugly, when the Haval series was finally released in Australia, we were treated to some pretty nice styling from haval, and a nice range to choose from, my parents have the earlier H6, and they love it. The new H6 certainly looks even better, although I'm not sold on that instrument cluster design not having a cowl looks almost like it was an afterthought, rather than a design intention. With a new trim level available, it should give some nice options. My only issue with haval is, they don't have these available in diesel, and Haval has said they won't be bringing it out, such a shame cause it would be a hit, the earlier model also did not have an AWD option. All in all, I'd still happily own one.

    Picking mine up next week. Ultra H6 4WD RAV4 top model is 30k more than the top H6 with a 1.5 year wait time compared to a car with more tech, 30k less, with a 4 month wait time. You can argue its reliability but thats really the only argument people make when they want to justify the purchase of another brand. Sure Mazda and Toyota have a longer history when it comes to reliability but other than that what else can you say is better overall??? After test driving this car, it was a no brainer. Prices are going up with Havals now too so if you don't get in now, you'll be charged 50k by the end of next year.

    I know it doesn’t handle as well as the established cars, but the engine and gearbox more than make up for it. Much faster than the crv 2.4, rav 2.5 and cx5 2.5. Much much faster. I love it
