Purchased the H2 for the wife because this was the only model offering Apple car play at that time early 2020. Took the demo for a test drive with 3 adults and found the 1.5ltr motor just adequate but as this car will be used by 1 person most of the time it would suit. The biggest disappointment is the turbo lag when cold, in fact it is downright dangerous. The good news that there is a software update ‘think it’s called cold start update’ which I recommend as a warranty call. The other annoying feature is the tire pressure monitor system, our ...Read more

Purchased a Havel H2 LUX in January 2020. Vehicle is small SUV. The car itself is well equiped and comfortable.
We added a tow bar with the intention of pulling a small 12ft caravan [under 1000kg]. This was not an issue UNTIL we checked on the tow ball weight endorsed by the manufacturer. To our amazement and total frustration, the maximum tow ball weight is only 70KG. The small van tow ball weight came in at a reasonable 80KG which is basically the minimum for a caravan of this size. A vehicle of similar size and engine capacity [eg Toyot...Read more

Owned my Haval just on 12 months now & love it to bits. Was purchased as a replacement work vehicle in spite of concerns from many including my mechanic (who admittedly was comparing to the first Great Walls). Figured I couldn't go wrong in that if there was a problem, I'd be covered by the excellent warranty. I travel approximately 1100km per week (53000km on the clock in 12 months as of today) with lots of stop/starting & uturns on all road surfaces in all weather. I ensure all my cars are serviced religiously on time & my mechanic has been...Read more

I purchased this car on 1 July 2019 and I've waited about 6 months before writing this review. This is so I can give the reader a detailed "long term" review reflecting 6 months of ownership. At the time of writing the car has travelled about 4,000 km.

I have another car which I use for work and the Haval is entirely our private "family use" car. It does the regular grown family stuff like shopping trips, miscellaneous errands, dump runs, family transport and so on. I can assure you this review is an honest and accurate review of my ownership ...Read more

So far our experience i as follows;

3 replacement turbos
Electrical faults
Engine mount issues
Loss of power
Faulty Breaks
Missing engine nuts
After care service is extremely unprofessional and cowboy like attitude. Haval don’t care about the safety of there customers , nor do they want to do anything about a brand new car with so many issues.
My advise is ...Read more

I looked around alot of suvs and brought an H2 Haval lux as my wife and l found it comfortable to drive and handles damn well in the hills. Plenty of extras in suv eg electric drivers seat, heated front seats, GPS, disc player, sub connections good wireless plenty of volume, more extras to many to write. Fuel around local driving 7.5 to 8.0 depends on conditions, long trips. Pakenham to Merimberla and return 6.9 to 7.6 using 95 petrol, Pakenham Yarrawonga and back 7.5 down to 6.9 suv has done 12000 ks and is just running in handles well in co...Read more

The Haval H2. Here is an interesting one. Firstly I read reviews carried out in 2016....(pictures of some reviewers, they look very young, so.....). No surprise, highly suspicious and critical of this "how dare they" Chinese brand, giving it a 4/10. Then I bought a Chinese little commuter motorcycle. It has provided a faultless over 12 500 Kms of very economical commuting and finish wise, still looks new. So when the wife's 2000 KIA Rio hatch (remember the suspicion when KIA first came out?) had moved on past its use by date, I decided to look ...Read more
