Especially Changan CS75? After the advent of the strong rival PLUS, with its hot market performance, CS75 series approached Haval H6 in sales volume for many times. To this end, many people began to exploit the topic, and some questioned the lack of stamina of Haval H6. ...

Third generation Haval H6

Recently, Brother Jiang had the honor to participate in the test drive of the third generation Haval H6. Taking this opportunity, let's talk about whether the replaced Haval H6 has the strength to defend its "dignity as a king".

Appearance: I look a bit like before.

Let's talk about appearance first. Looking back briefly on the first two generations of Haval H6, the overall feeling is nothing more than "stability, atmosphere and moderation". The first generation model of Haval H6 launched on 20 1 1 is even a little dignified, while the second generation model is much more refined, but the overall design is still stable and conservative.

Although the huge market audience has proved that this design is feasible, it is unwise to rest on its laurels under the trend of younger consumption. The third generation H6 seems to be aware of this, with a large-area mesh texture grille, angular triangular fog lights and fangs-like spray-painted decoration on the front bumper. ...

Although penetrating taillights and letter labels have become more common, it is undeniable that Haval H6 has indeed made many new elements that have not been tried before.

In addition, considering its strategy of selling new and old products under the same roof, it provides potential consumers with one more choice instead of giving up the classics.

Interior: Give you a sense of class and luxury.

As for the interior, the third-generation Haval H6 has changed its cash layout, with two-color interior splicing and gold chrome decoration, plus 12.3-inch floating central control panel and 10-inch full LCD instrument panel, showing a youthful atmosphere.

In addition, the addition of large-area soft leather and knob shifting that can be touched everywhere gives consumers a sense of grade and luxury. However, it should be pointed out that when the light is good, the shift indicator light will reflect some light, which also causes it to look serious after each shift.

Configuration: Carry forward the advantages of high cost performance.

In terms of configuration, the third-generation Haval H6 still carries forward the tradition of high cost performance. 6 airbags, fatigue driving tips, matrix LED headlights, automatic start and stop, automatic air conditioning, shift paddles, wireless charging of mobile phones, etc. It's standard. Even if the budget is limited, the beginner's version for beginners is quite worthwhile.

If the budget is plentiful, the mid-to high-end models include HUD head-up display, Bluetooth key, 360 panoramic camera, automatic parking, autonomous route tracking and reversing, ambient light, air purifier and so on. Jiangge mainly experienced the above two functions. One is automatic parking, and the success rate is basically 100% when there is a warehouse line on the ground.

automatic stopping

The second is to follow the trail and reverse the car, which is usually only seen in luxury models. The actual operation is also very simple. Click the "Follow the Back" button, engage in reverse gear, and the vehicle will automatically back up 50 meters. Imagine, when you walk into a narrow road and can't move forward, tut-tut. ...

Backward tracking

Space: a veritable "plus sign?" +"Pro"+"Max "

At first glance, Haval H6 did not follow the example of other competitors and added a suffix to the model name. But in fact, the Haval H6 car uses all the upgraded naming methods.

In terms of body size, the third-generation Haval H6 has been fully upgraded on the basis of the second generation, which has advantages in its class, and the wheelbase of 2738mm can even stand out from the crowd.

Specific to the back row space, the experienced young lady is 170cm tall, and the leg space is more than two fists, and the head space is also quite abundant.

Considering its soft and generous seat material, the rear row also comes standard with air outlet and USB interface (two), which is really friendly to the rear passengers.

Test drive experience: obvious progress, there is still room for improvement.

As the first model based on the "Lemon" platform, the third-generation Haval H6 has significantly improved its lightweight. According to the official statement, its vehicle weight is reduced by more than 100kg compared with the previous generation. So does a lighter body mean a better driving experience?

In terms of power, the third-generation Haval H6 is equipped with 1.5T? GDIT？ EVO engine has a maximum power 169 horsepower and a maximum torque of 285 nm, which seems to be basically the same as the current one, but it has actually been upgraded to some extent. For example, the maximum torque speed range is increased from 1400-3000rpm to 1400-3600rpm, and the application scenarios are wider.

In fact, when I first started driving, I felt that the improvement was obvious, and the throttle was very sensitive, so the response was particularly direct, and I could walk with one press, giving people a feeling of abundant power. However, at medium and high speed, the response of the second half will be slightly slower than that of the first half, but the ride comfort will be more prominent. Of course, as long as you don't spare the throttle, you can completely release the power when you step deeply.

In terms of steering, the third-generation Haval H6 still has a "sense of driving" when driving, pointing accurately, and it has three modes that can be adjusted: lightness, comfort and sports. In different modes, there are obviously different feelings, and drivers can make preset adjustments according to their driving styles.

For chassis suspension, the third-generation Haval H6 rear suspension adopts multi-link structure instead of double wishbone. The overall comfort has improved, but it is still a "hard" adjustment. When passing through the speed bump and sand on the road at medium and low speed, the driver can obviously feel the information of the road, and the filtering action is stiff and the passenger experience is not delicate enough. However, when cornering at high speed, the car body has strong support and will not roll too much. Moreover, with the increase of vehicle speed, the high-frequency vibration is filtered more cleanly at the speed of 60 km/h ~ 80 km/h.

In terms of noise control, the overall level is considered as the mainstream level. It's quiet at middle and low speed, and the tire noise is loud at high speed. When you step on the accelerator deeply, the sound from the engine in the cabin will be more obvious. ? However, the roar of the engine of the third-generation Haval H6 is more "sweet", not that kind of roar.

Write it at the end

Generally speaking, the third-generation Haval H6 is quite sincere. The innovation of appearance and interior design has given more young elements, and the configuration still fully satisfies consumers. As for the driving level, the new Haval H6 has also made some improvements.

But don't forget, the third-generation Haval H6 developed on the lemon platform can also support hybrid, plug-in and other power systems in the future, and can also carry out FOTA remote upgrade, which means that it will have stronger shaping power and broad prospects than before.
