I am from Melbourne, you are the only car review I that subscribe to. I find that Australian car reviewers have an enormous biased against Chinese car. They always try to find fault with Chinese car.

@koosbez4505 Год назад

I Have a white one. Awesome vehicle for the price. :) Did 1171km’s in weekend trip. Best Fuel Consumption figure = 7.5L/100km @ 110km/h Ave. Ave. Fuel Consumption Figure was = 9.2L/100km for this trip. The drive was smooth even with all the rain, potholes, animals and trucks. I must admit the average fuel consumption included a lot of spirited driving. The safety systems kicked in many times helping me to stay clear of the side of the road and especially when it rained very hard to stay within the lines and showing me other vehicles positions around me. Seating was very comfortable and the climate Control worked perfectly. Overtaking was a piece of cake with this vehicle, lot’s of reserve power available. The all-wheel drive system ensured max traction and grip in all conditions. In town consumption = 9.5 - 10.0L/100km The Manufacturer’s claimed 8.4L/100km combined seems valid.

Having watched both Australian and South Africans car reviewers you get the immediate impression that the Australian doesn't review the Haval objectively but rather emotionally based on their biased and racist attitude towards Chinese cars . It's a shame really as it makes their review totally of no value.

@DeanFriederich Год назад

The H6 GT is such an interesting offering from Haval. I recently tested one myself, and I loved it! The fuel consumption was a worry for me too...but it's definitely somewhat of a relief to hear that some owners have achieved much better figures later down the line. Thanks for another great review, Ciro!

You get used to the fuel consumption after some time. I love this car, I don't see myself going back to German cars.

@monalisa1811 Год назад

Your point on the throttle while sitting in traffic (7:50) 100% true, no drama detected there. I have an H1 and it does exactly the same thing (when in 1st gear and you're crawling in traffic), most annoying thing ever, but I still love my car. Fuel consumption does get better over time. I went to view and test drive this car... love it love it. I personally have come to learn, unless you are well off and have tones of money, in the economic times we live in one has to really consider what luxury means, the idea of luxury is subjective, to be honest, you don't buy a car to keep forever, so why bother buying a very expensive car in the first place when you can buy a car like this, that is comfortable and does what it needs to do.

@wcrash9361 Год назад

Bev noticed any lunching while in traffic but you failed to mention the traffic jam asian which basically drives the car itself in slow traffic . You failed also to realise the boot floor can adjust 2” lower so it can be lower

@milosnikolic2279 Год назад

We bought the H6 with the max specs in the beginning of December 2022. Done over 4k in a month, and for now we are super happy with it. Basically, H6 and GT are only visually different. It is true that the fuel consumption is not the best (in Europe, super urban is around 11l/100km, highway is around 10l/100km at 140kmh. 8.5 is around 120kmh). But everything (almost) you said its true and we are more than happy with the review, as we are with the car :) It drives nicely (not a sporty car for sure but super comfy and pleasant on the highway), a lot of gadgets and space inside the cabin, materials are really good, trunk of 600l is more than enough for our needs. And, H6 does not have (at least in our experience) issue of getting the throttle down in the city, so we don't constantly "swing" :D The fuel consumption will drop below 10 for sure after the first service (10k kms). Big difference is the quality of the fuel. I've seen it escalating up to 4l for the average fuel consumption with the same driving regime. Warranty is 5 years or 100k kms. Does it have any bigger mechanical issues? We don't know yet...for now it runs smoothly.

@kyledb1290 Год назад

Overall not a bad review of the H6 GT. Few points missed on it unfortunately. The boot has an adjustable boot floor so you can definitely fit a cooler box in it. If you look under the rear of the vehicle you will see exhaust flaps with two additional pipes when in race mode.

@craigjenkins3854 Год назад

Have a good feeling that Haval have a winner on their hand's. The H6 GT is for the style conscious buyer. It's highly specced and very competitively priced. You're staying too see more and more on the roads.

0-100kph is 8.2 seconds on australian review. Racelogic VBOX we got 7.9 and my friend weights 60kg lol. Did a few tries and averaged 7.9 (Just 1 person in car) on quarter tank. I'm going to watch the rest of the review now interested to see if the lane assist works for you if you did test it as Australian review they said it wasn't doing it properly. Keep up the good work. Keep those videos coming!

@Quendk Год назад

This SUV is beautiful. I'm in the process of getting it. The fuel consumption is an issue, but every other 2.0 Petrol SUV doesn't compare to Diesel consumption. Boot space does get a bit bigger if you drop the boot floor. Only hope that one day SA will reduce fuel taxes to give us better pricing. Thanks for the great review

Fuel consumption aside the H6 GT is great value for money. Haval should consider making a hybrid version of the GT aswell , I think it would be very popular with consumers.

@iantjasink6966 Год назад

Love the George Clooney bit!!! You put it all into perspective for me thank you. Is it technically as good as its next closest rival? By that I mean Haval has been around long enough to show some durability tests of time. For example we all know how VW can not make a switch anymore, window switches, locking switches pack up! And VW electronics is fraught with sensors that cause you by a whole new "thing" because the transducer isn't talking to the MicroP. and the replacement part is 4 times the equivalent spare.

@lylegalloway4545 Год назад

I’ve done 6000 kms in my 2022 H6 HEV (Ultra). Test drove the H6 Turbo at the time I was looking. The HEV was definitely quicker and is incredibly economical 5.8L per 100. BUT I’m hanging out for an AWD model with the EV motor. There’s way too much power running through the front wheels and requires diligent driving skills. Everything else about HAVAL vehicles, I love.

@denzilmanuel5593 Год назад

Regarding fuel consumption. I wonder if it's anything like the new Chery, whereby the default setting(reading) shows km/litre instead of litre/km. A small but significant difference. Under the km/litre metric, it pays if your reading reflects a higher number, as it implies you getting more km per litre.

Spare a thought for us here in Australia, there is only 122 H6 GT Ultra right throughout Australia and there is only 22 H6 GT Lux. I’d be curious to see what the fuel consumption is like in the economy mode. Overall I think this car will be hard to beat in a medium size SUV. A family member has the H6 GT Lux, they can’t fault it. I’m not sure with other countries throughout the world but here in Australia they come with a 7 year warranty.!!

You should have done a bit more reading re the exhaust sound. its an actual mechanical sound and NOT speakers. Secondly its not suppose to be a mini X4, Its never sold to compete with those cars. It competes with Rav, Kia and Hyundai in the price bracket. and then you would realise its s great offering.

My only two issues with this car are that bottom part of the seats are weirdly short. People aren't all short like the Chinese. Secondly it bothers me that it's rear seats cannot recline. Why would you have such a large vehicle only to not be able to sleep in the back or make use of the ample space? Even the Kia Sportage can recline. The Chery Tiggo 8 pro has amazing reclining features. The Toyota Fortuner and the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport as well. Wasted space Haval. Honestly! For a family car it should be 💯 effective during traveling.

This car is all look and no bark, sorry. We went for a fairly long test ride in the GT, all kinds of driving and conditions- and was totally underwhelmed. In fact, there is a chance we drove this exact same car - Thorpe. The H6 Ultra Lux rides exactly the same, has the same spec, has the same comfort and costs much less. It looks fast and sounds fast, but performs exactly the same as the normal H6
