Haval are going to launch a new SUV. That indeed is actually not news. It would
be news if they were not going
to launch an SUV. The latest in the endless series is this Haval M6, formerly
known as the Haval H6.
The Haval M6 is based on the same platform as the
old H6, which by the way is still in production, no matter that Haval
also launched a new H6. The M5 also gets the same engine as the old
H6; a 150 hp 1.5 turbo mated to a six-speed manual or automatic. It has the same
wheelbase too.
It
will be positioned between the still-selling old H6 and the new H6. It will be
marketed as a sporty variant of the old H6, no matter that Haval also sells an
H6 Coupe, which will soon be updated.
The interior is new. It has a proper touch screen,
analogue dials, a manual hand brake, and an MPV-style gear lever. It also has
some red lines and stitching for that sporty feeling.
This particular car has a blue badge, indicating it
is a M6 Blue Label, which in turn indicates there will also be a M6 Red Label.
But! The H6, now M6, that debuted in Guangzhou had a red badge, and it was exactly the same car as this blue
badged M6. Haval will sure soon let us know when they
got their next SUV ready.
