How to choose between H9 and 300?
2 Answers
Haval H9 is positioned as a mid-size SUV, while Tank 300 is positioned as a compact SUV. The Haval H9 has a larger body size and comes with a 7-seat version, so it offers better comfort for long-distance travel. The exterior of the Haval H9 is conventional and has not caught up with Great Wall's latest style, while the Tank 300's retro design with bright colors is very eye-catching.
I've been driving off-road vehicles for many years and am very familiar with the H9 and 300. Choosing a car depends on your needs: the H9 has ample space, with 7 seats ideal for family trips, making it easy to carry people and luggage, offering good comfort for long drives, and its soft chassis effectively filters out road vibrations; the 300 has hardcore off-road capabilities, with high ground clearance, making it effortless to climb muddy slopes, but the back seats are cramped and uncomfortable for long distances. In terms of fuel consumption, the H9 averages 10L/100km combined, with better efficiency on highways; the 300 exceeds 12L/100km when off-roading, and consumes even more after modifications. If you commute with kids daily, the H9 is practical; if you enjoy adventurous off-road trails, the 300 is more exciting. Test driving is key: feel the seat height and steering response. Maintenance costs are similar—just take it to the shop for servicing—with the H9 having slightly better resale value. Budget-wise, the H9 starts at 180,000 RMB, while the 300 base model is 170,000 RMB, but the 300's aftermarket parts are expensive, so total costs require more consideration.
