If you came here because you are considering purchasing one second hand, here is an honest review of the H2. I purchased one for my wife as a daily drive and have driven it myself a few times and this is the most honest feedback I could give. In terms of its drive, it is very comfortable and deals well with cornering and takes on bad roads, bumps and gravel roads well. Interior is decent with what you get as standard in comparison to its class but the touch screen is very unresponsive and delayed and is most definitely not up to par with other vehicles in this class. The sound system is really not good at all. You can tune the sound settings to sound as good as possible, but its still not that good at all, and the volume adjustment is even worse. Just when you are looking to play a banger of a song as loud as you can, the volume tops out and stops going up. You can drive through a residential area with it on full volume at 1 in the morning and very few people will complain or even notice. One very annoying thing is that there is just one USB jack in the entire car sitting in the central arm rest and unless you put your phone inside the central arm rest compartment there is no where else to put your phone while driving. Another annoying thing is once a notification comes up in your instrument cluster, for example tyre pressure warning, then you cannot exit the warning and as a result you cannot view anything else on the small screen until you resolve the issue. Even restarting your car wont help. Performance wise the car has more than enough power for its size at around 110kw but the delivery of it is very frustrating. There is severe turbo lag which results in needing to calculate every single overtake you do with precision. The turbo starts kicking in only over 3500rpm and you need to really rev the car out to reach its peak power which really effects the fuel economy. The auto gearbox feels like it is about 5 years behind to other vehicles in this class. It is very slow to select gears while driving or overtaking, so would opt for a manual if you are considering this vehicle. Because between the turbo lag, and the auto gearbox, overtaking becomes a very complicated situation sometimes. If you are a regular city driver and you want something economical then do not even consider this vehicle. Some city driving and highway it is fine, but if it will mainly be city driving then its a NO. You can get about 700km on a tank if you drive highways in a very conservative fashion, but the second you sit in traffic its fuel economy suddenly becomes that of a V8 landcruiser. This vehicle does not like sitting in traffic when it comes to fuel economy at all. Still remains a good quality vehicle for its price.
As an ethnic Chinese living in SA, it's refreshing to watch a news report and a comment section where I don't feel like I should give up all faith in mankind
I have a H2 bought new 2 years old now and its just terrific. Every gadget and luxury included at a great price. It is quick and comfy. Now I want the P series.
Drove one to the Kruger and can't say the trip was any less enjoyable compared to most luxury SUV's I've driven to the same destination in the past. Only small for things like coolers and big luggage. Great value for money
What I love about the H2 is asking the dealership what was traded in for it. Last year I drove a lovely Astra J sedan 1.4T Enjoy that was traded in for an H2 because it needed a new clutch. Haval replaced the clutch and that drove like a steal at price - I gave it the beans. If you don't want to drive the H2, ask what was traded in for it - you might have an even greater deal on your hands.
I bought the 1.5T Lux Auto in January. Turbo intake pipe blew off after 450km's on the way to Kruger, but was able to put it back myself. Suzuki Nelspruit were very helpful and quick in checking my work and resetting the engine warnings Done another 2000km's and starting to love it. Don't put it in economy - drives like a dog, but standard mode it is great. Turbo lag takes a bit of getting used to especially when cold. Brilliant car on gravel and highway. Wife borrows it once a week to go to work now, after bitterly complaining that I had bought a lemon. Very sad its only Apple Carplay because I will never own an Apple product.
Most people are still stuck with perception on VW and Toyota. technology is changing and no brand wanna receive bad feedback I've tested H6 C i felt like i was driving a Bima that thing is comfy and sporty. Chinese are really coming for the World the Evolution is here and US or Europeans can't stop them.
@@anwarcharfaray7069 They are here,Geely owns part of Volvo and some people don't know that. look at what Volvo is producing you get a 2L Diesel with 3.9per 100KM thats insane for a fuel consumption.
I love this car from the 1st time I saw it 2 years. I'm sure by the time I am ready to purchase it would have been a whole lot improved and more expensive.
Have always been impressed with the Haval H2 as it was decently priced and comed with plenty of features. When the time came for me to buy, i went for Mazda CX-5 and i am very happy with it.
This has been a brand that intrigued me. I really wanna know how good, reliable and fuel efficient it is. Fuel consumption was a bit bad at first. Let's Haval look 🤣
We brought this car 2020 July and at first it is a great car if you looking for a big car on a budget BUT it fuel consumption is WAY to High literally we planning on trading it in for a different car because wow we can’t be spending R600 a week on fuel it ridiculous
I love the H2, I remember when you reviewed the first generation in 2017 or at least first in SA. It had almost everything and it was the City model. Even the smaller T-Cross couldn't get lower than 300k for the entry level that was introduced some months ago. And it looks so basic with scratchy plastic everywhere. So this is good value for money indeed. I wouldn't mind one. Alth3it should be brand new.
You might not have heard of any complaints but Hello Peter makes me question the reliability and quality of this product. People are complaining about Gearbox problems, brake system failure, battery and aircon unit replacements in the first 6months. And im talking about consumers that purchased brand new units...not pre-owned or demos. What makes it worse is that the after sales service is questionable and people made mention that the 5/7year warrantee is a scam because the manufacturer dont take any responsibility and also dont pay out any claims. So im sorry there is your catch u were looking for😬
Please redo the review again. Not much information was given. Fuel consumption, handling, revs at freway speed. Engine power etc...This haval cars are hungry on fuel, tell us more
This Haval ( like most brands actually ) will take a huge hit when you need to trade/resell. It is mostly to do with brand perception, Toyota always wins that game in SA. Brands like these also have the tendency to leave the country after a couple of years. Its risky, if you going to get one make sure you keep it for a long time ( and who knows if the car will hold up in long run )
The car looks so much like the H6 C. I wonder why that is, it’s gonna be a bit hard to tell the two apart now I guess? Beyond that, HAVAL is really putting up a good battle with its competitors!
The cars look similar because of the hexagonal grill in the front. Haval has decided that this grill will represent their brand so all the cars from 2020 onwards will have this grill therefore making them look similar.
I was looking at the specs of the car.. Everything you said goes with my opinion about it. I can't find any reason. Reason I watched this video I thought I didn't do my research very well so I needed a second opinion.. And in conclusion one cannot touch this car., I can't put my finger on it.
the car is a good price but it s only downfall in my opinion is it looks outdated on the outside like something 10 years old like the mitsubishi asx 2010
I have a first gen Qashqai that I need to replace, still runs perfectly 10yrs later. This would be quite an upgrade in terms of looks... but I wonder it would be as reliable as the qashqai and have parts readily available
My wife owns the 2019 HAVAL H2 City auto...second model in its class. Hamilton white. Is there a review on the 3 different engine settings....standard, economic & snow. I dnt seem to see that that settings help fuel wise or is it just me. I also don't like where the card holder is situated just behind the gear lever. If the gear stick is in park position u can't really work with ease behind the gear shifter because it is too close to the card holder. 3rdly the wind noise on the car is very bad. You can't drive with the windows down without having effect on your ears especially the back windows effecting the front occupants. And to top it all. This engine is very thirsty on fuel. No matter how I drive it it is to heavy on fuel. I would like to know what other HAVAL H2 2019 model owners thinks and your expert advice as well .
400 cars per month nice , I love haval but I’m confused why they aren’t bringing in the new h6 WHICH LOOKS AMAZING and the new h9 , I hope haval focus more in the SA market sponsor a cricket or rugby team
I believe the new h6 is coming - I mean it was just at the motor show - and the current H6 is all but discontinued... the f7 though I dont think is coming but might.
I think the "value for money" mystery factor lies in two main places : aesthetics of design (interior & exterior) as well as integrity of engineering. I've actually driven thís car and yes the engine is quite punchy, but not every time you accelerate - almost as if you "catch out" the turbo ánd it is HEAVY on fuel. Then you also mentioned the lack of seamless integration between engine & drive train - thís is where money is saved. But yes, the majority of people want to get from point A to B and will in all probability not even notice thís. Same with the design aesthetics - when Hyundai & Kia roped in Schreiber, ex AUDI designer, their designs & quality (ánd prices) improved DRAMATICALLY! Thís is where the Chinese brands still have to catch up - hopefully their pricing will remain competitive however.
A cheap car with a semi expensive feeling interior doesn't mean its a good purchase. Id be interested in the brand if I could see a 10 year old Haval with more than 150 000km on the odo that's still driving and holding up. Then there's also the question of resale value and parts availability.. Ill rather stick to buying Korean, Japanese or German cars, even second hand before i get burned with a Chinese car. lets see how things look in another few years...
We used to say that about Kia and hyandai, you forget most cars are built by robots, I had a new Ford and it blew a radiator in a month and it was 7000 dollars dearer than my mg3 which has no problems , Chinese cars are catching up in Quality very fast, as far as resale I don't care my car has 7 Years warranty it's a disposable car lol
@@victorlebza Not preconceived, fact. Chinese cars are cheap quality that don't last as long as their Japanese counterparts. Then we don't even talk about their overall lack of safety.
@@warrenseiboth3466 I wouldn't really use Ford as an example of great quality. Ford only builds good cars in the USA. Toyota is the benchmark you want to be using.
Adriaan, you just have common perceptions about Chinese brand. We’ll it’s roughly 5 years and I can assure you Haval owners still happy and holding up. Haval has proven to be reliable, and with introduction of Jolion, they are closing the gap real quick
Would you say that the manual transmission will be better option than the automatic? Fuel consumption seems to be higher than other rivals, but then again, the initial cost of the vehicle is so much lower. Been driving a Hyundai Getz now for 17 years since new. Unfortunately recently a motorbike turn infront of me and now the car is in for repairs after 17 years of excelent sevice from this little 1300cc. Pity the Getz name was changed to I20. But yes, as mentioned car prices for Hyundai is not low and the looks is ugly these days.
Go check my channel this car Haval H2 is a very shity car and the people who sell them will stab you in the back and leave you with a broken R270 000 car wich is supposingly brand new
Ugly car, nice interior though, but I think the centre console would look better fiinished in brushed aluminium rather than piano black that shows up greasy fingerprints
Biggest piece of shit I ever brought. 2019 model, H2 premium. No power, to the point where it is dangerous, and very thirsty. Just got rid of it, expensive mistake. I would never recommend anyone buy a Haval.
If you wanted power, then you were ill informed when you bought the H2. Average power doesn't make a car dangerous, in this case we blame the driver's skills. Otherwise we would all be buying Bugatti and Ferrari for safety
Sadly you review is clearly a paid for advertisement for Haval instead of a independent review. I think I would stick to international motor reviews of vehicle.
Chinese dealerships have disappointed many South African motorists with previous attempts to sell these products here. How long will this dealership last before they too pull out of South Africa ? Do you remember .... Geely Proton Gomoto Chery How many above stated vehicles do you still see on the roads today ?

Good review just missing the economy part of it. Fuel management is important too
They leave it out intentionally because it is not fuel efficient, it consumes too much for its size
It does have it just press the mode button there are three modes economic standard and snow mode

Adriaan, you just have common perceptions about Chinese brand. We’ll it’s roughly 5 years and I can assure you Haval owners still happy and holding up. Haval has proven to be reliable, and with introduction of Jolion, they are closing the gap real quick
It's good value for money
As there any review on Mg zs11
Would you say that the manual transmission will be better option than the automatic? Fuel consumption seems to be higher than other rivals, but then again, the initial cost of the vehicle is so much lower.
Been driving a Hyundai Getz now for 17 years since new. Unfortunately recently a motorbike turn infront of me and now the car is in for repairs after 17 years of excelent sevice from this little 1300cc. Pity the Getz name was changed to I20.
But yes, as mentioned car prices for Hyundai is not low and the looks is ugly these days.
I thought it was a review of the facelift H2? Nice car, good video but poor content. What's new about it? You didnt say.
I would rather buy a Haval than anything German
Probably only because you cannot afford the X5. German SUV fans won’t even look at Haval🤣🤣🤣
Search for Haval H2 factory fault. not a safe car
But its fuel consumption thou😭😭
Does the H2 support Android Auto?
The guy from tiktok 😂
I can't believe he said he loves "big knobs" and kept a straight face 🙊😄
The reason china is able to sell cars and electronics is because of the pricing and value for money products.
This car guy is so hot! I just watch the vids cause of him. 😀
Go check my channel this car Haval H2 is a very shity car and the people who sell them will stab you in the back and leave you with a broken R270 000 car wich is supposingly brand new
Ugly car, nice interior though, but I think the centre console would look better fiinished in brushed aluminium rather than piano black that shows up greasy fingerprints
No salty Americans in the comments section. That's weird !
Biggest piece of shit I ever brought. 2019 model, H2 premium. No power, to the point where it is dangerous, and very thirsty. Just got rid of it, expensive mistake. I would never recommend anyone buy a Haval.
If you wanted power, then you were ill informed when you bought the H2.
Average power doesn't make a car dangerous, in this case we blame the driver's skills. Otherwise we would all be buying Bugatti and Ferrari for safety
Sadly you review is clearly a paid for advertisement for Haval instead of a independent review.
I think I would stick to international motor reviews of vehicle.
ha ha most of them do
Made in china
Looks like knock off Ford escape
