The GWM Haval H7 arrives in Australia in August, filling a really specific area of interest for the Chinese auto brand.
Effectively, in case you need a mid-size SUV that has a more rugged look than GWM’s Haval H6 and H6 GT, but one not quite as rugged because the body-on-frame Tank 300, the Haval H7 is for you.
Just like the Haval H6 and H6 GT, but unlike the ladder-frame Tank 300, the Haval H7 is predicated on GWM’s unibody LEMON underpinnings.
CarExpert can prevent hundreds on a brand new automobile. Click here to get an excellent deal.
Despite its quasi-rugged posturing, it should be offered with only front-wheel drive and a hybrid powertrain, and there’s no spare wheel – only a tyre repair kit.
It’s being offered here in a single Vanta trim, priced at $46,990 drive-away.
Given the Haval H6 GT isn’t available as a daily hybrid (only as a plug-in hybrid), that is the one option to get a more ‘individual’ mid-size crossover SUV from GWM with hybrid power.
You pay $3000 over a top-spec Haval H6 Ultra Hybrid for this privilege. The Haval H7 is offered to order now.
