I was actually checking out this car and saw your video. I don’t mind these changes at all. Much suit my needs anyway and 1k cheaper. Couldn’t be happier.
I have a 2022 H6 Vanta and I love it! Personally I have not had any issues with the car where I know a number of people have I would highly recommend GWM as a whole since owning. The only thing I would change at the tyres that came on the car, the worst tyres I have had on a car before. I ended up getting rid of the tyres that came on the car and throwing on a set of Good Year Assurance MaxGuards and I love them! Fixed all the issues I had with the car
After researching and finding out Chinese car manufacturers hired European and engineers from other car manufacturers I brought a h6 hybrid really impressed after owning Toyota and holders for the price and warranty who cares if I sell cheaper than a Toyota because I pay half the price for a good build quality and most car parts are made in china anyway 🎉🎉🎉🎉 also averaged 5.5 to 6 litres per 100klms hilly and city hwy driving
I took a test drive, and it was amazing. I couldn't even feel the gears shifting-it would take a real car enthusiast to notice that. I'm very impressed. I enjoyed it much more than the Haval H6 HEV.
We purchased Haval Jolion Lux las May last year, driven 21000ks without any problem, the complaint we have is the driver seat back would have been better with more padding. Otherwise we love it.
We have a 2021 H6 lux. It’s about to tick over 55,000 klm. Observations: • Paint on front bumper does suffer stone chips (freeway) easily. • as my daily driver I am used to it, but my partner still hates the screen searching for HVAC & radio- needs better short cuts • it’s powerful & has zip but my partner prefers the transmission in ‘ECO mode’ to make takeoff & gear changes smoother (dulled) • electronic minders need better calibration but have learned to override them.
Bought a Jolion Hybrid when they first came out 2 years ago, it's been an absolutely brilliant car, no issues whatsoever and 5.4l/100km overall. Prefer the styling of the previous version, smaller boot space is definitely a downside. Inbuilt sat navigate is just another added cost to keep up to date, much prefer to use my smart phone. DAB radio would be a waste in NZ as it's a service that's not commercially available here.
I have been driving the other Haval Jolion Ultra Hybrid for nearly 2 yrs with nearly 900K range on a full tank using Fuel 95. So far happy . They have a cheaper battery that failed in less than 15months which cost me nearly 300$ to replace it. Battery warranty is 12months only. The hybrid battery so far is very good with 8yrs warranty and it lacks the punch uphill with 1.5Litre Engine. Overall pretty good.
I can’t get over the fixation over temp changing. I’m not a lover of screens, but hand heart I don’t change mine anyway. Just like a heat pump you set your desired temp and it will get you there the fastest way possible. I can’t father people making it 18 only to turn it up later to 21 because it’s now blowing out on cold….same for heat…it’s not going to warm you any quicker. But I do find it curious I can’t use my phone but am aloud to operate what’s basically an iPad in the car 😳
It looks like a relatively good package, but why the hell did they reduce the sound deadening? One of my friends has the previous Hybrid model and it was really nice on the highway and course chip road. 6-7dB doesn't sound like a lot but it really is quite a massive downgrade. That is a make or break criteria for me when I start shopping around again.
OMG! You are right! This is disastrous. 6-7DB as per the reading is a humongous comedown. No sir, this is not for me. I think the MG HS petrol (the new one) is much better insulated
For some reason it takes a bit of time for the wireless charger to kick in and start the charge process. I cant fathom out why it takes two attempts pulling the door handle to open the door from the inside to get out?
@@garylab7934 Yes, we also earn less and pay more for cars. We even pay more for the ranger and hilux that is built in our own country than you do for the imported ones. Electric cars here are taxed, we don't get a tax break on them we pay 50% more.
What’s with Chinese manufacturers under-sizing wheels? The BYD Sealion 6 and this (and others from MG) could do with wider wheels, or different offset wheels to properly fill the guards. They’d look quite attractive if that was fixed. Reminds me of the old Datsun 120Y cheese cutters.
Love the review, but I have a little inquiry, Can Paul please highlight whether there is a memory car seat as well as the supportive level of the app to the vehicle? Cause most buyers of this car are for the family (including me), I often need to swap drivers with my partner. That could be a very critical argument of whether we should consider the vehicle, Thanks Paul !!
Hey guys. Print out a new “please subscribe “ sheet and laminate it. Then some double sided tape to attach to suitcase. Attention to detail matters. All the best.😊
GWM Rabbit in China other silly named models Big Dog & Cool Dog if dose models should come to South Africa & Australia it should come with other names like Electron & Meteorite cool model names I think out .
I agree mate, I looked at one and thought they had taken the proper wheels off it and put on some skinnys, sit to far in, I wonder how car companies can sign off dumb shit like this before it goes to market.
What are the points to test surface softness, place for bottles, horn sound, android auto or apple car play, are they this important (As this device main purpose is to commute)? Or reliability of the car, service costs, warranty supports on factual cases, rate of failures, etc should be discussed? Another thing is repeating the same sequence of testing (even with somehow similar words) is really boring, unfortunately.
In short, the Haval Jolion Hybrid looks sporty, but is noisy, slow on the highway, thirsty if you do any highway running,, has a tiny boot, has a huge turning circle and ordinary handling. However, it will be peppy on a test drive in the city... as long as you don't push too hard, you'll be fine.
@@yslee1401sheez, do you have evidence other than just hating for no reason? In NZ Jolion hybrid ultras are $41k new and are minimum $30k for the 2022 version with about 30km and there are barely any available cause I assume most people are happy with them and don’t want to sell them. I don’t think that’s much different to other brands, feel free to proof me wrong
@@teofilol2666 Did you watch Paul's review? I simply summarised it.... (and yes, I have seen this in person, although I am not sure what that would add to Paul's review!).
Chinese mid range seem much better built than Germ and Jappy higher end. For 35k ? What more you want? Try and get this quality at this price from other " well established brands", you cant. About 5 litre per 100km? With that size and comfort? Stop complaining, I be surprised if Holden even survive with their " quality" and tries to sell China., oops they died already as a company lol.
I own a Haval h6 ultra hybrid .5 months old. We get a fuel efficiency of ~6.8 to 7.3 l/100 km. Car is very decent. Like the whole package we got with the car. Get a lot more for the price than any other car. We have only done ~4000km. The overall experience is good
Looks over bodied in comparison to the previous one. Personally, I prefer the proportions of the previous model. It needs more track width. Actually, what is it with Chinese cars and body to track proportions? A lot of them never look to be sitting right.
Well at least it doesn't lift its rear end under heavy braking like the GWM Tank does. That's at least a plus. I'd give it no more than a 4.5/10 . Improvements to overall refinement, reliability, quality, driveability , NVH, economy are incremental at best. Resale & depreciation need work. Haval still like nearly all Chinese brands have a lot more work to do . Its not a complete fail. But nor is it a big tick .
These manufacturers need to stop slapping so many badges on their cars. Nobody cares who the parent company is. They don’t make them any less shit lol.
A hybrid vehicle for 35k drive away, seems a good bargain. Time will tell about its reliability. If the body kit is not your thing, remove and sell it to other Jolion owner 😅
I don't mind the new design but the front grill is a bit ugly and nobody wants a huge Haval badge on the front. Nobody's buying this car for the badge!
It doesn't matter what brand vehicle you buy always No resale Value! what's worse you pay more you lose more! I rather buy a vehicle up to $30,000 keep for 2 years maybe lose about $ 10,000! imagine a vehicle cost 100K maybe lose around 36K or more! after owning for 2 years.....

Have you tried selling the Haval? You will need some help with standing after you hear the price, if you even get a response at all
@@asifkhattak198 good luck trying to sell it. Do have a defibrillator and 2 paramedics on standby coz your heart may miss a couple of beats

It's a fantastic button. It helps me find my car in the parking lot when I forget where I left it.
Nah, not as common as you think. Although it's good for a big car park to find my car.
Haval jolion is the examples of japanese quality with chinese prices no wonder VW and nissan is on the brink of collapse
