Are the engines of the second-generation and third-generation Haval H6 the same?
2 Answers
The engines of the second-generation and third-generation Haval H6 are different. The second-generation model uses a low-power version of the 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, while the third-generation model uses a high-power version of the 1.5-liter turbocharged engine. The Haval H6 is a compact SUV under the Haval brand, with body dimensions of 4640mm in length, 1825mm in width, and 1690mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2680mm. The vehicle's exterior design creates a nearly perfect body posture, using dynamic micro-curves to outline the side profile, giving the car a sharp and poised appearance ready to take off.
I previously drove the second-generation Haval H6 and felt the engine was a bit outdated, mainly the GW4G15 series, which was noisy and had a city fuel consumption of up to 10 liters per 100 kilometers. Later, I tried the third-generation H6 and was pleasantly surprised to find a major engine upgrade, switching to the GW4B15 series or newer models. The design is more advanced, featuring better turbocharging, significantly reduced noise, and quicker throttle response. City fuel consumption dropped to 7-8 liters, and the driving experience became much smoother. The third-generation technology improved reliability and efficiency, though parts are a bit more expensive. The engines are not the same—if buying a used car, the second generation is cheaper to maintain but technologically outdated; for a new car, the third generation is the better choice, with noticeable differences in daily use, excelling in both power and fuel economy. It’s best to test drive both at a 4S dealership to experience the real difference, as it’s quite significant.
