Haval H6 2021 review: Is this China’s best Toyota RAV4 and Mazda CX-5 midsize SUV rival to date? 

He changed his 'characteristics' once sit inside the car, he became a soft man, talk soft, act soft. I think the seat should be comfortable.

Attended the local dealer, looked at a Lux (same colour as the one tested here), Had a good look, took it for a 30-40 min test drive, impressed, and I was driving a Falcon at the time. Now have a week old H6 Lux in the garage.

Many will post negative comments simply based on country of manufacturer. Australians are free to purchase what they like.

My husband and I went for a test drive last weekend and this is way better than MG's offerings. Excellent camera quality, comfy interior, smooth ride, great safety features. All for a very competitive price! We are almost 100% sure that we are getting this as our first family car after going around to all other major brands. Only cons are fuel consumption (not too dissimilar to some competitors), use of piano black, wish they offered a darker grey paint colour and less well versed salesmen in our area.

This dude is really funny. Good review Richard! No skipping and watched all the way to the end.

All car reviews should be done by you mate.👍

Walk into most Australian homes, 90% of it is made in China. Haval is just another addition. For value Haval is A+.

7yrs warranty and cap price servicing is pretty attractive

I remembered 30+ years ago when the Hyundai and Kia came into to Australia, at that time people said they are crappY cars and just cheap on price. However many AustraliaN bought it as just A run around cars. I bought one at that time as well （Frankly it was not too bad）. After years AustraliaNs now say Hyundai and Kia are good cars. The point I am trying make is nowadays China made cars and product are already much better quality than 20 years ago and the technology is going fast in China if you haD been visited to China in last few years. I hope Australians can open up their mind and explore yourself. Do not get over bias on country of origin.

OMG I was blown away, $40k for the Ultra? Obviously GWC is behaving like Apple or Tesla pricing what the market will bear. Every other country is causing inflation... China is causing DEFLATION. This car deserves to succeed everywhere, good HONEST motoring

I've owned an admittedly much simpler GWM product (C30 saloon) for 4 years, 75k kms and it has been faultless, no rattles, not even noticeable wear and tear on the interior. Maintenance has been oil changes, filters and that's about it. Across markets in the global south, where they have a huge presence and cars aren't usually maintained all that well (if at all), GWM products have developed a reputation for reliability. Ours (Chilean) standards are much higher than those of most of the developing world but they've been here for almost 15 years and it's come to a point that they no longer have major resale value issues, although it remains to be seen how that'll go on these more sophisticated and expensive models like the Jolion, Cannon and this new H6 (best selling SUV of its category in China for quite a while). OZ didn't get the Pierre Leclercq-designed 3rd gen that was the decisive great leap forward (historical pun totes not intended), but that is holding up its value pretty well. They reportedly have adapted/copied Toyota's production philosophy and also none of what we get outside of China hasn't been on sale over there for a good while, meaning they've had a run in the real world in the tens of thousands sold in the Chinese market and have ironed out early faults. If anything, these people are meticulous and carefully planning their every move. The fact that the products you get have to be produced in RHD could be a source of issues but seems unlikely, from the years I've been following them they just don't botch launches. Australia/NZ are key markets for them to solidify their reputation some more.

USB port for the dashcam is a brilliant design.

This dudes weird but I can't look away. This cars such a compelling package

I went to Haval today and drove one of those, pretty impressive, really fast and powerful engine, high tech inside, I m thinking to get one next week. Love it!

The Chinese is winning with price and quality. Great for consumers.

Best review ever, very entertaining compared to others. Please also review the Haval Jolion, thanks

Best car review channel of Australia, super fun to watch!

Just bought a Jolion. I challenge anyone to find a better value SUV.

When r u going to review the Haval Jolion????

9 out of 10 for your style of review!! definitely informative and not boring.

I've never in my life liked a Chinese brand, but this Haval is something else. That warranty is a winner for me.

This H6 is yet to be launched in South Africa but the Jolion did and I bought the Lux model. Its a super impressive vehicle at an attractive price the value is exceptional. Great car and great review

Haval is a well loved brand and leader in the SUV segment in China, glad they are bringing their most recent products to Australia. Hope one day they can sell their premium SUVs know as the WEY brand here.

Finally an Australian review should be good thks heap buddy

Recently received a 5 Star rating in the Crash Test. This just means it’s even better value for money

Brilliant review as always. Well done!!!!!!!

For the price it really is competitive! Might look into Haval once I decide to replace my smaller car.

h = AITCH. Otherwise. I think the Haval is is on a winner. Some might think a Chinese car is 'not on', but it was the same after WW2 when all the Japanese brands (eg Toyota) began their rise. Thanks for your fine review Richard.

I think I spotted a USB port near the rear vision mirror. Probably for a dash cam.

Had a test drive yesterday in the H6 Lux, it got me Hook, Line and Sinker..... 👌👌👏👏

Ventilated seats on my kia seltos are absolutely life changing for someone like myself who runs warm all the time

I'm so glad you have tons and tons of personality you make the other car journalists look very boring

Your reviews are amazing dude..🔥😂😂

I've been considering this car over the kia saltos. I like this one better. Thanks for the review! From south africa 🇿🇦

Can y'all review the Haval Jolion. Cheers

I have had the previous H6 Lux for the last 4 years which is easily the best car I have ever owned, and seriously considering updating to the new model.

Most entertaining review ever. Keep up the good work mate!

Funniest car review guy around. Thankyou for another entertaining review👍

Don't know if it is the best from China. But one thing for sure, there are many more options in China that Ausssies never seen...

Can't wait for the Jolion/H2. This is just too big for me.

I enjoyed this video. Your personality is tops 🤣🤣🤣

Richard Berry you legend you!! I really enjoy your reviews mate.

Is exactly what a true Aussie review shud be.. legend!

Thumbs up for Richard, love watching your video.

You’re a crack up mate! Great reviews.

Great video, fun, creative and very smart with the main tips about the car.

the only reason I am going to subscribe to this channel is because of this guy I loved this review

Man this guy is hilarious! Starting to like these reviews. And that car really looks so good, it's amazing for what you get for the price. I hope these cars are reliable.

Cheaper than Subaru XV but larger than Rav4...that's a big advantage. Please clarify the following: - spare? - Android carplay? - reverse camera performance in dark? My Cerato camera is grainy in dark, when you need it most. Please review the Jolion when it is available. Better still, do a comparison review with other price rivals. Thanks in advance!

Great work mate

Nicholas Cage will do anything nowadays, even car reviews. Good job

Thanks the review!! Getting warmer every times I looked at Haval.

Amazing review!

Gorgeous car!!!! And a great fun-filled review

I'm driving a GWM cannon ute. Love it!

Ive watched car reviews and you trumped them all. You should do all the car reviews. Haha. Really enjoyed this and very informative. Thank you.

I'll take Mitchell Johnson's words for this Chinese car.

really enjoyed the reviewed. Very entertaining and no bs review!

Nice video and good review, keep up the good work!

Hybrid Haval H6 is coming by 2022. 4.6l/100km and 520nm torque. Its the iphone of the car world. Fasten your safety belt. This is the new Toyota

Great style of review, my favourite yet :D looking forward to seeing more

Great review. How's the quality of the interior compared to say a tiguan?? Any 0-100 times? Braking times? 1/4 mile times recorded?? Thank you.

Good value car I recon. Very impressive package with such a low price. Haval just needs a bit time to prove its reliability in a new market.

Good presenting, nice upbeat vibe! I bloody like it! Car is all right... could be something I go for, because spending 40-50k for an SUV sucks..

Informative and thoroughly entertaining review. A vehicle well worth considering. Many thanks.

when is the Haval Jolion getting ago like to see your take on this SUV like your style

This vehicle is a game changer for the segment, just not sure about the dealership experience but agree that the likes of Toyota and Hyundai need to be concerned and can expect to lose some market share…

Was gonna buy one of these this week but decided to go for the cannon L ute cos why not. This was tough, its beautiful on the inside

Very nice funny and entertaining review mate. Well done.

Thank you, I've been waiting for a review from someone for a while! I was wondering if there is an issue with glare on the instrument screen, since there is no instrument binnacle which covers it? Also, did you test the 0-100km/h time? Or tractability (in-gear acceleration?)

H6 series have been sold more than 3 millions in China.

Awesome review. I enjoyed

It has been given a 5 star crash test rating

When is the Hybrid variant going to hit our shores? reliability is the big question for me... has a Jag look to it

When other car manufacturers are looking more weirder and uglier, Haval just got better. I think that they should stick with this facelift and never change it. It has worked for Nissan for quite a while until they changed it this year

I am having an Rav4, GXR, AWD CVT but disappointed in the sluggish enjin. Thinking of changing to the H6 Luxury. What is your opinion?

Waiting for corona virus 🦠 to end! I must definitely give it a try! Looks quite impressive but that badge! Can we make it any more stylish? 😅

Yea ,great wall,(GWM) are definitly making a good impression.

Great fun review Richard. Would be good to go into a bit more detail for practicality such as the Bluetooth connectivity that other journos have complained about.

Normally I don't mind your quirkiness Richard, but that extra dose of silliness was a little too much this time. Sorry mate...just being honest 😐

Wow. Makes me think twice. Seems like a good practical car. I hope Haval does well.

Well done dude... great review

Thankyou for a GREAT review and side note 8/10 your hilarious... cracked me up.....lmfao

Awesome energy and review Mr. Berry. 😄🤣

I like this host, his confidence is addicting 👍

I love the simplify range only 3 to choose from and plenty of safety features and amazing price as well

I’m not sure what I just consumed. But I like it. Great review. I thought the next model Haval may be closer to the benchmarks in Australia. This changes my thinking. Doesn’t seem to be many weaknesses with this car? Fuel economy more that the started claim. Yes, but what make doesn’t?

Wow.. you r too good man😊😂.. love from Pakistan 🇵🇰

Haval jolion review plz

Great review with a touch of humour included… :)

I'd be more comfortable buying Haval of I knew the support systems in place provided by Haval dealerships for servicing as well. If they follow the model and pathway Hyundai and Kia invested in in the 00s as they started their resurgence to where they are today, I might take a gamble on a Haval ultra model one day. As an entry brand I wonder if their pricing is competitive enough when the H6 ultra is competing with a Highlander spec 2022 Tucson.

6:05 going to do this next time I change the oil.

Thanks for great review. How about cabin noise as compared to its competitors?

Bought the H6 ultra and it is awesome but. There is a massive fault with cruise control, so much so, that the dealer states ,not to use the cruise as it is dangerous due to massive braking on any slight bend on a highway from 110 Klm to 80 in seconds and to await a hopeful update from Haval to fix this problem. I am quite happy to not use it as l am very happy with everything else

Would be great to see a comparison with the MG HS update AWD and of course with the moustache guy aka Richard :)

Is there a full-size spare or a silly spacesaver Richard?

I'm in the market for a SUV not sure if i should go got this or the Jolion Lux. Another thing not mentioned is you get 5 years roadside assistance.My local dealer never has any in stock how long does it take if you orderone here in Victoria?

Great review. I looked up the: Spare Tyre T135 / 90R17. What does this mean? Is it a space saver?

High gas prices would hurt this made in China Haval SUV running cost, pay an expensive electric hatch but carbon free and cheap to fix and run or highly recommend to take public transport cheap and safe will end Sport Utility Vehicle craze for good. Your choice...

Loved it
