Haval H8

Haval (哈弗) H8. 2015 to date (prod. n/a). 5-door SUV. F/R, F/A, 1967 cm³ (I4 DOHC). Much-delayed SUV, with the late launch put down to Haval working on the refinement and components of the vehicle. Pre-production vehicles offered to press had suffered from harshness and noise problems, resolved by the time of the 2015 launch. Capable on the motorway and 4WD models reasonably good off-road, while the 160 kW engine could be said to be only adequate for a two-tonne vehicle (2,053 kg for RWD, 2,130 kg for 4WD). Thirsty as a result of the engine.

Manufacturing location: Hebei, China

Marque: Haval
