Haval has been an incredible success story in South Africa; from what we've been told, the company simply can't ship in enough cars to meet the incredible demand from South African motorists.
Following the success of the Jolion and regular H6, Haval recently launched the H6 GT and now this, the Haval HEV or self-charging hybrid.
This new energy drivetrain H6 Hybrid comes with a claimed fuel economy figure of 5.2L/100km which is very impressive, so we wanted to find out, is this achievable in the real world?
Join our video team and Ciro De Siena for a trip around Cape Town in the new H6 Hybrid to find out the result.

My wife has a AWD h6 lux now she wants this hybrid yet not wanting to let goe of the h6 lux😂😂😂😂, haval please, its enough now, you have made your point🙏, Give the kwid a chance to shine too.
I dream about owning this car, no man, Haval didn't have to make such a good looking car!!!🥵👌😩
and you shall!!
Just bought today!
@@Empresskimz wow congrats on your purchase, happy to hear the good news and pray you have many great memorable kilometers in your Haval🎉🎊
@@TorqueDriven thank you🙏🙏🙏
Hi Ciro. Another excellent video. I suppose it won't be a fair comparison in terms of size / category, but I bought the Corolla Cross Hybrid XR a few months ago. Real life average consumption stays a very consistent 5L/100. The XR comes with 85-90% of the tech that you've mentioned and is a terrific vehicle. They sell for around the R470k mark.... although picking one up at that price at the moment will be difficult. With all these things considered, I believe the Corolla Cross Hybrid is a fantastic buy. Stay safe.
Thanx so much for sharing. It is great for potential buyers to hear what someone who actually owns the car thinks.
I no nothing about cars... but I find myself constantly watching these videos especially on the Haval. Excellent content....
Your reviews are very well. I can almost estimate to the nearest 10th how nice it is to drive the Haval H6 hybrid. Thank you for giving us the juicy details and I believe the car is worth a try 😉
Great review Ciro. The only thing I can thinkof you guys can add to make this a real-world comparison, is to drive these cars outside of Cape Town. Honestly very few places in South Africa enjoy the almost perfect tar roads of CPT but overall great job guys.
I don't get satisfied until your video comes out on any car review. No one else but only you do justice to the review of cars. Well done man.
Nice! , looking forward to the GT review as well
This is such an exciting time for the Haval brand. Now they just need to bring the Jolion hybrid as well 😋 thanks for the informative video, Ciro!
Jolion hybrid is on its way. Confirmed.
@@Tom-jc2fq awesome! Can’t wait 🤩
Feel it it is here
Every Ciro review makes you want to buy the car 🥺 Great work ✨👌
Thanks for the great review as usual Ciro, it would have been nice to see the HUD and the navigation setup on the digital driver’s display.
Just a suggestion: I think that the channel would probably benefit from doing EV reviews which feature the complete depletion of a full tank of fuel as well as a full battery charge. The test could be set up against a predefined route which features city driving at X amount of kilometres, and open road driving at Y amount of kilometres. If Ciro can't spare the time in his busy schedule, then at least he can do the main review and then hand the car off to a second (off camera tester) who then reports back on the numbers. That would be extremely helpful to actual potential buyers.
thank you for your review, awesome insight.
I have the H6 Super Lux and the HAVAL brand is making n very good name for them self. I love my car and woyld really have liked to buy this one. I like the grill, bit other than that it looks exactly the same as the H6 petrol range. BTW the Super Lux does have electric boot lid. Great review😀
It's amazing the price of this car. The Tiguan R recently launched costs R1 million which is ridiculous. I know they're different in application but this shows that there's no reason the Tiguan should cost that much considering that this has way more tech and is a hybrid while the Tiguan is just a plain petrol powered vehicle. A hybrid Tiguan would be over a million then. Crazy.
I have over a decade of living with hybrids every day, and I can confirm they have amazing torque, actually better than the dirty turbo diesel. Not affected by altitude, no seals premature failure due to added heat from the turbo and best of all is the ability to recover and reuse energy through regeneration. With battery size/weight: its output (power & torque), hybrids are a sweet spot for future mobility mix, even better than overrated BEV. Great work Haval, and obviously the vid, Ciro
For me I couldn't get used to the droning noise of a hybrid. And on the highway a diesel still gets better economy.
How often do you have to replace the battery?
@@SDav21 the Prius one, yes the drowning might irritate although u only hear it when u push it but can understand is designed for efficiency does less insulation but boy, that very drowning u must hear it in a Lexus hybrid with a V6, is completely the opposite & sound like an aeroplane engine on take off. Luv it on performance hybrid GS450h F-Sport
Please review the H6 GT
Going to have to wholeheartedly agree with ventilated seats being with one of mankind's best inventions. It's so so good! Would still like to see a AWD version of this hybrid though, it could literally be a hybrid sports version with those figures.
Agreed a phev AWD would be great 😊
The best journalist is back🥳
Please do a 2022 budget car review ,if you could do something where you compare a few "starter Pack" cars under the 250k mark.
Just love the ways of your presentation. Thank you from Australia
Table Mountain likes attention, it keeps showing itself 🇿🇦🤣. Great review.
Awesome as usual.
Great review 👍
Nice one !! This Haval cars are not bad. 👍
Greetings from Madrid! 🇪🇸 from a follower that enjoys your vids.
Awesome, hello from Cape Town!
We have the jolion hybrid .have had it over a month now .almost at 900kms for our first tank
ANCAP - "the Australian thing where they smash cars into walls" is the PERFECT description hahaha great video!
Impressive review🙏🙏
Hi Ciro. Great video! Any news about the GWM Tank 300?
Please in your videos try adding a section for acceleration tests (0-100)
As much as I love hybrid cars but the low point for them is that they don't have spur tire . When are is going to be available here in South Africa?
Hi Ciro, nice review but haval no spare wheel in south Africa with our roads🤔
Thankyou great job .
I'm very excited about this
Haval is doing proper things here..
Absolutely great vehicles. Although unfortunately people who work at haval dealerships have no clue what they are doing.
My vehicle went to haval for an engine overhaul after I had picked it up from service. They had left my radiator cap off causing it to overheat with me the following day after the service.
My vehicle was with them for seven months . Cost me 70k in repairs and far over that in finance over the several months I did not have the car. Such a terrible experience Don't buy these new vehicles in South Africa. The dealership will not be able to repair them when they break
Couldn't agree more. They look good on paper - lots of the screen features are gimmicks - and my ownership of a sister company's product lasted 30 days before I returned it with many things wrong. The dealerships are unable to fix anything - it gets worse after each try. To be honest - the same experience with Ford - at least a "different" dealership cold resolve issues - no such options really with Haval.
How about doing an economy test of the regular Haval.
Set up a specific test route, two drivers, each running the vehicle twice at different times of the day. Rush hour and non rush hour.
Then run this hybrid on the same route.
This is such a cool idea. I'm here for this! 👏🏻
Now this would actually make sense. Esp for those torn between H6 petrol vs H6 hybrid
Hi Ciro, @5:17 you mention that the engine is naturally aspirated, but I believe it’s turbocharged?
Can you add a Stabilizer antisway bar on the H6? if so it will it affect my car warranty? Also do you know if there is PHEV coming
Great video and test. Negatives of the HEV is the lack of spare wheel, only two wheel drive and not such great fuel consumption. I have the Super Lux and it is great but very heavy on gas and the systems are pretty complex and some of it, in my view illogical. Certainly great value for money and an excellent drive/
Here in Australia, Haval is doing a 7-year unlimited km warranty.
Lekker! Is a review of the new H6 GT coming? Would love to hear Ciro's thoughts on it
Now if only the cANCer would drop the 25% import Tariff on hybrids , it would be more affordable.
Car looks amazing
Hybrids not having a spare wheel is quite a big issue for me, especially at night.
Great review, however im not sure the fuel economy at the end of the video is indicative of the entire drive??? Im led to believe the display of fuel economy is showing what the car is doing at that point in time. The most accurate way to determine fuel economy is to start with a full tank then fill it again at the end of the trip, then calculate litres used per klms driven. Would be interesting to see the results.
Excellent review as always Ciro , this should help address the biggest complaint customers always bring up about Haval , which is the fuel consumption, I’m hoping to see the Jolion get a hybrid option aswell in the near future.
The jolion hybrid is already available in nz and China Thailand and Australia so I’m sure you will get it soon
@@wcrash9361 jolion is not available in China yet
@@giantsd300 jolion has been in China since the beginning , 2 Chinese friends own one
@@wcrash9361 jolion stopped manufacturing this year early in China.Hev is not available yet.Maybe next year spring will be available,it said that haval may change its name back to h2 cause Chinese don't like its name初恋
@@giantsd300 total rubbish , jolion has never stopped selling in China and they are not going back to the h2 name, your a fool
Great review as always Ciro! You are making our life’s difficult 😂😂😂. How does this Hybrid compare to the H6 4wd super lux? Torn between which model to go for
Difference is fuel consumption
Love this car!
The Chinese are disturbing the peace!
In the best possible way
Much needed
Then live in dreams
This is a Polo Vivo driver commenting with his 2 airbags in 2023 😭😂
😆 😂😅
May you review how automatic parking system works in this H6 HEV. Thanks
I'm so glad they starting to add more power without asking millions more
after watching this video again & again, for a year, I got one for my wife last week......I was so worried about the no spare wheel issue, until my wife said she wouldn't know how to change it, and she would still call me, even there is a spare for her.
Haval is great. Only oversight in the H6 is the fact that you cannot control the radio volume from the console. Unless I am just blind 🤷♀️
you better be doing the new Honda BRV soon lol im stuck between the two 7 seaters in low price range, compared to competitors Cherry Tiggo Pro 8 but now Honda stepping up regarding pricing and new look too!!!!
That BRV is slower than a donkey drawn cart. I wouldn't touch it with a stick
Love your review 👍 😀 informative professional and mostly down to earth, very helpful to buyers! 👍👍❤
Great to hear, thank you!
What's the figures at the pump though? Trip computers are rarely accurate.
Great review, the lack of a spare wheel & lack of run flats is a deal-breaker for me though.
Lol that’s your deal breaker? Kante where do you drive that you REALLY must have a spare wheel?
@@thabangmagana869 jhb potholes
@@thabangmagana869 South Africa roads are full of potholes! Definitely a deal breaker
@@thabangmagana869 I drive in Eastern Cape where the roads are very bad
@@thabangmagana869 the Daca rally.
PS the current H6 Super Lux AWD has an electric tailgate. I want the GT.
How does this one compare to the haval h6 luxury range…like heated and ventilated seats?
You really can't fault this model. Great value for money.
Saw a dark Grey one at the car wash the other day and it looked 👌🏾 amazing.
Thabs. I have this grey/silver one on order (which comes in 10 days confirmed) but haven't seen it yet. Grey looks good? Thinking about getting black one but might have to wait for months.
@@Tom-jc2fq the one I saw was dark Grey, if you getting that one don't change your mind.
It looks amazing, unfortunately we can't post pictures here.
The car looks 👌
Why didn’t they use this technology in the H6 Gt, I wouldn’t be angry if the H6 Gt had an electric motor helping. In fact it would be beneficial for power and efficiency.
It’s already launched in the Chinese market as H6S DHT. I believe it’s just a matter of time for the hybrid H6 GT to march to other markets too.
Best part of this review is that there is actually something in the cooler box!....midday drinks???
Biggest concern is no spare in a country like SA...
Does the boot button on the key actually unlock the boot? It doesn't on the jolion
I found a lot of road noise on the test drive specifically on the highway. Sounded like tyre noise. Wind noise seemed OK.
I own a H6 super Lux love it. This is making me want the battery also though. Please do a Race between this and the Rav4. Absolutely great review
Same boat as you. Just ordered H6 hybrid. Best part I lost no money as thr H6 has gone up since I bought it 5 months ago
How is the fuel consumption on the super lux?
@@mrpeery1
I only do city traffic so it's on the high side. Around 11litre / 100km
Wow Tom that's awesome let us know how it goes when you get yours. Congrats man.
@@mrpeery1 if you drive the car in Eco you can do 10l pr 100 km but as seen in the review the hybrid is around 6 so much more fuel efficient
I test drove this car last month. Upon flooring the gas pedal i could feel the power but apparently engine revs did not go up..
Also was confused if i was getting 500Nm of torque. Can you pl let me have your comments about what you observed about its acceleration and engine revs
As always your videos are fab. Appreciate your work.
But I have confusion if you want to choose between Rav4 HV GXL AWD Auto CVT which is now $50453 (Australian Dollar) and Haval H6 Ultra hybrid which is $46103 then which one would you go for.
I am getting both the cars in next week for the above mentioned price, so availability is not the issue for me.
I am really confused and unable to make the decision. After sale market of haval is not so good as compared to Rav4.
And now they have raised the price of rav4 so I am not sure is it worth to buy Rav4 or haval at this time now.
Is this something you can please guide on.
By any chance if you can please reply little early it would be really appreciated.
I visited Toyota recently with the same thoughts that you have in mind. It's on average an 18 to 24 month wait for rav4 stock in Australia. If the dealership is willing to take your money and you're willing to wait then great, but when the salesman told me and my partner those wait times, our main choice of Corolla Cross hybrid (min. 12 month wait) struck out.
We ended up purchasing the jolion hybrid and was quite impressed during the test drive and inspecting the vehicle in the lot. For the price of around $47k AUD you are getting way better and more features than the Rav4 in the H6. We ruled out resale value as we intend on keeping the Haval long term.
Hope this helps and would be good to hear your thoughts.
Hey guys, can you please do a review🙏 on the toyota mirai
Ciro, instead of fuel thing which I know is obvious. Would've been good to know how the drive differs compared to a normal H6 for those people who are considering both.
PS. It's not a naturally aspirated engine. It's 1.5l turbo. And battery is bigger and more powerful than Rav4. Haval you can get up to 60km/h on battery before ICE kicks in. Rav 4 you can barely get out the parking lot.
When you doing the new Mahindra pick up ? The dusk,dawn storm
in brazil the haval h6 gt has almost 400 hp and 78kgf of torwue with 0-100 in 4.8s
I prefer a Kia Sportage hybrid or Toyota RAV4 hybrid.
Note that I don’t live in South Africa, so I can buy the Kia Sportage hybrid in my area.
Just don't like the Rav 4 interior which is from the 1990s.
@@Tom-jc2fq What about the new Kia Sportage?
I think it’s a good interior. I know in South Africa, the hybrid isn’t sold there, and they very recently launched the new Sportage there.
@@DaveDVideoMaker
I think you're right, we only have sportage petrol. In our market, its lame we only have one main player in hybrid (Toyota) so I'm happy to.see competition. I'm keen on the hybrid route, to eventually one day going full electric. In SA atm we only have ludicrously expensive top spec full elec cars atm (jag, audi, bmw)
@@Tom-jc2fq The hybrid Sportage is very popular here in Europe.
I hope the Sportage hybrid will be offered in South Africa later on, and the AWD versions. Currently, the Sportage hybrid is only for sale in North America, Europe, Israel, Korea and some other markets.
And I did hear that Kia is gonna launch the EV6 in South Africa later on.
For the price the fuel consumption and lack of quality of rav4 better keep with h6.
Thanx for the review, I always enjoy them 🙌🏼🎊
At 7.24 you're talking about the torque in the RAv and comparing it to the Haval, you had a gold RAV driving aside you.. I wonder if that was just pure coincidence lol.
Can you do a review on the H6 GT?
Good day... wondering how long the guarantee is on the battery and the replacement cost of it... now that would be a nice thing to know..... and the no spare wheel is a definite no no in SA... wtf ??
8 year warranty on the battery... Just got back from test driving and it is beautiful ❤️
Is Haval like the Hyundai hybrid with a belt started motor or more like Toyota with the direct motor starter?
What's the audio system like in this car?
want to kindly ask if you have Lynk&Co on sale there
Ciro we need the review on the Jeacoo J7 please good man
Just one question. Is the engine not 1.5L turbo charged? You say around 5:48 that it's naturally aspirated
Please review the haval H6 GT
Often people talk about the total power and torque, my question is, is this power delivered simultaneously even when the electric motor goes off?
We get the 1.5 turbo here in Australia on the H6 hybrid
Yeah it would have to be turbo. Wouldn’t get 110kW out of a naturally aspirated 1.5 😅
We saw a Jolion HEV in Thailand, why dont we get it here in SA?
Haval have confirmed that it will be launched here soon
This is the car for me.
Hi. It was better to tell us who is making this engine 1.5 hybrid and the gearbox.
If this car was made by a European manufacturer like BMW or Volvo, what would it cost Ciro? At least double?
Not less than 1.2
What is the price of the HEV Ciro?
Did 5.4 per 100km on a Kia driving at 80km/h on the freeway but normally 6.0per 100km
It might have a combined power output of 500 + NM but it's not used in conjunction. Plus it's a 1.5 turbo.
Thanx. :)
Bro..those 220Nm are just from the internal combustion engine in the RAV4, not the whole hybrid system. 🙂
Please do a review for the new kia sportage…
What's the 0-100km/h on this considering it has so much power and torque?
8.5 sec
Hi dear Ciro
As a HAVAL H6 HEV user, let me know your very real experience with this vehicle.
After a long mileage, how you found Haval in Fuel consumption, Comfort level, Driving ease, Safety measures, Suspensions result?
ANY ANY ANY COMPLAINT?
Would you like to recommend me buy this SUV?
Please I need your real life based experience rather than video talks like many other guys do.
Thankyou
My experience is that the instrument readout of fuel consumption under reads actual consumption measured from fill up to fill up by at least half a litre.
What is the rust warranty on the car? that is very important if you live at the coast. Also, reliability beyond the warranty period?
I get 6.1 l/100 km in a 2007 RAV4 diesel which secondhand cost me 20% of this car. Admittedly it does not have most of the bells and whistles of this one, but in an old car the more bells and whistles the more there is to go wrong.
I'd put the $$$ away each month, and keep the Rav.
@@towerkop That's my conclusion as well. But I ask the question about rust because it seems to be a problem with Mahindras if the experience of friends who owned them is anything to go by and I was wondering if also have problems with rust. If I was in the market for this kind of car I would go for the RAV until this car proved itself. Toyota has far more years' experience with hybrid technology and have built a reputation for reliability. Haval still has to establish their reputation. Bells and whistles aren't that important to me, reliability and cost of ownership in the long term is.
