A Guide to the Haval H6 in South Africa

The Haval H6 is the model that really put Haval on the South African map. Relaunched in 2021 as part of GWM’s renewed local push, the H6 offers midsize SUV style and tech at prices that make the so-called premium brands sweat. It's aimed at families, young professionals, and anyone who wants a luxurious SUV experience without selling their kidneys to afford it. With bold design, serious safety kit, and a plush cabin, the H6 proves that you don’t need a German badge to roll in style.


Performance Overview of the Haval H6

Under the bonnet, the Haval H6 offers a 2.0L turbocharged petrol engine delivering a hearty 150 kW and 320 Nm of torque. Power is sent through a slick 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) that feels more sports sedan than SUV. The result? Smooth, punchy performance whether you’re overtaking taxis on the highway or cruising down to the coast.

Claimed fuel economy sits at around 7.4 L/100km — not bad at all considering the size, power, and presence on offer.

Haval H6 Interior and Tech

Step inside the H6 and you'll realise quickly: this is not a “budget” SUV. You’re getting premium vibes at a price that feels like a sale that never ends: 

  • 12.3" touchscreen infotainment system 

  • Wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto 

  • Panoramic sunroof (on higher trims) 

  • Digital instrument cluster 

  • Leatherette upholstery 

  • Dual-zone climate control 

  • Electric driver’s seat with memory function 
     

Everything feels solid, well-thought-out, and generously specced — proof that Haval came to play seriously in the midsize SUV segment.

Haval H6 Saftey

The H6 doesn’t skimp when it comes to safety, either. Expect an impressive suite of features as standard or available depending on your trim: 

  • Six airbags  

  • Adaptive Cruise Control 

  • Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) 

  • Lane Keep Assist 

  • Blind Spot Detection 

  • Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) 

  • 360-degree camera system (on top trims) 
     

With a full five-star C-NCAP crash test rating under its belt, the H6 gives South African families serious peace of mind.
