4 Answers
Haval M6 Plus has a curb weight of 1.6 tons. Introduction to Haval: Haval is a sub-brand of Great Wall Motors, established on March 29, 2013. As an SUV-focused brand operating parallel to the Great Wall brand, Haval uses independent logos and maintains separate systems for product development, production, and services, specializing in SUV manufacturing and sales. Its lineup includes three series: H series, M series, and F series. Haval M6: The entire series is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine that meets China's National VI emission standards, delivering a maximum power of 110 kW and a peak torque of 210 N·m, offering strong power in its class. The transmission system is paired with either a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. For suspension, the vehicle features a rare-in-class setup with front MacPherson and rear double-wishbone four-wheel independent suspension, combined with professional SUV chassis tuning to ensure stability and comfort during high-speed cornering or when driving on rough roads.
I've driven a Haval M6 Plus for three years, and this SUV weighs around 1,550 kg, which is quite suitable for me. On highways or long trips, the body feels very stable—unlike those lighter small cars that feel floaty—and it's particularly solid when turning without any risk of tipping over. The downside of the heavier weight is slightly higher fuel consumption; in city driving, I average over 9 liters per 100 km. Fortunately, the spacious interior is great for carrying family or moving stuff. I’d advise new owners to regularly check tire pressure since low pressure makes the car feel heavier, increases wear, and wastes fuel. Overall, this weight ensures safety and comfort, falling within the normal range for SUVs—definitely a solid choice.
I've owned the Haval M6 Plus for less than half a year. I heard its weight is about 1,580 kg (automatic transmission). My first impression was that the handling felt a bit heavy, but once you get used to it, it becomes comfortable. The weight makes parking in small spaces slightly troublesome, but the upside is better safety and a stable chassis, especially in rainy or snowy weather where it's less prone to skidding or drifting. The average fuel consumption is around 8.5 liters per 100 km, which is higher than smaller cars but worth it because the SUV's weight keeps things stable when carrying heavy loads. In daily driving, pay attention to weight distribution—avoid stacking too much heavy stuff in the back seats, as it affects balance. Overall, this weight is quite beginner-friendly, and once you get the hang of it, the handling boosts confidence.
Considering fuel economy, the Haval M6 Plus weighs around 1,550 kg, which means it consumes slightly more fuel than a compact car. I estimate the annual fuel cost to be about one or two thousand yuan more. The SUV's weight increases resistance when driving uphill or in traffic jams, but maintaining a steady speed can save fuel. The weight comes from high-strength steel and practical configurations—though heavier, it offers spacious cargo capacity, making it cost-effective for daily use. Avoid sudden acceleration and overloading, as the weight can cause fuel consumption to skyrocket. With reasonable use, this weight doesn't really affect the enjoyment of family outings.
