Does the Haval H9 have four-wheel drive?

Haval H9 is equipped with four-wheel drive. Taking the 2020 Haval H9 as an example, all models of Haval H9 feature an intelligent four-wheel drive system, specifically BorgWarner's dual-speed TOD intelligent four-wheel drive system. This system is characterized by real-time monitoring, proactive intervention, and rapid response. BorgWarner's dual-speed TOD intelligent four-wheel drive system can actively distribute the required power between the front and rear axles based on vehicle and road conditions, and automatically intervenes. Once wheel slippage is detected, the TOD transfer case can automatically switch power between the wheels. The Haval H9 is Haval's first high-end off-road SUV, featuring a non-load-bearing pure off-road body, a bold and rugged design, upgraded luxurious interior, and is powered by an efficient 2.0T engine paired with a ZF 8AT transmission, fully compliant with China's National VI emission standards.

The Haval H9 indeed comes with a 4WD version. I've personally driven this vehicle, and it performs quite steadily on off-road terrain. It utilizes BorgWarner's intelligent 4WD system, capable of switching between multiple modes. For instance, the 4L low-range 4WD provides ample power when climbing hills, while the 4A full-auto mode offers anti-slip performance even in urban rainy conditions. Technically speaking, this 4WD system relies on the coordination between the central differential and electronic control unit to distribute torque more evenly among the tires. When encountering muddy or snowy conditions during regular driving, the 4WD comes in handy, reducing the risk of skidding. However, it's worth noting that daily fuel consumption is slightly higher than the 2WD version—I've measured an extra 1-2 liters per 100 kilometers. Overall, it's a must-have feature for adventure enthusiasts. Remember to check the manual when selecting options to confirm the system version and avoid incorrect operations.

I drive a Haval H9 for my daily commute in the city, often taking national highways and occasionally venturing into suburban or off-road areas. Its four-wheel-drive version is quite practical. While it might not be necessary in urban areas, switching to four-wheel-drive mode makes a big difference in rainy, snowy, or muddy conditions—the car feels much more stable, with no slipping or skidding. The driving experience feels more solid, with better road grip during turns, reducing the risk of rollovers. On weekends, when I take my family out, I don’t have to worry about steep slopes or rough dirt roads. The Haval is designed for versatility, and the four-wheel-drive system adds an extra layer of safety and peace of mind. The fuel consumption is slightly higher, costing me an extra few dozen yuan per month, but it’s worth it. Maintenance is similar to the two-wheel-drive version, just requiring regular checks on the drivetrain. I’d recommend the four-wheel-drive version for those who enjoy road trips.

The Haval H9 comes with a 4WD option, and I've driven it a few times, feeling that it enhances stability. When the road is slippery or bumpy, the 4WD kicks in quickly, reducing the accident rate. The engine and transmission system are well-matched, ensuring a smooth ride. When choosing between 2WD and 4WD, the former is more fuel-efficient but less adaptable. Maintenance-wise, there are no major issues, with only an annual differential oil change required, keeping costs low.

As an SUV enthusiast, I've been following the Haval H9 for years. It comes standard with a four-wheel drive system, making it particularly suitable for complex road conditions. Compared to two-wheel drive, it has advantages in off-road capability and safety, offering more reliability in sudden weather changes. The four-wheel drive adds a bit of weight, possibly leading to slightly higher fuel consumption, but daily maintenance costs are low, requiring only basic checks. I recommend test driving before purchasing to experience the responsiveness of the four-wheel drive. The Haval H9 offers balanced overall performance and is worth the investment.
