Is Haval a Joint Venture or Domestic Brand?
2 Answers
Haval is a domestic vehicle brand. As a subsidiary brand of Great Wall Motors, Haval operates in parallel with the Great Wall brand, focusing primarily on SUV models. It utilizes independent branding, along with separate product development, production, and service systems, specializing in SUV manufacturing and sales. Currently, the Haval lineup includes three series: H series, F series, and M series. The Haval H6 is a compact SUV with a wheelbase of 2680 mm, and dimensions of 4649 mm in length, 1852 mm in width, and 1710 mm in height. The Haval H6 is equipped with two engine options: a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine delivers 150 horsepower and a maximum torque of 210 Nm, featuring VVT technology and multi-point electronic fuel injection, with an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. This engine is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I remember buying a Haval H6 a few years ago, driving it to and from work, and it was quite sturdy. Haval is definitely purely domestic, a brand under Great Wall Motors, and not a joint venture brand at all. Great Wall was established as early as the 1990s, mainly producing SUVs and pickup trucks, and has now expanded into overseas markets, such as Russia and Australia, where they sell quite well. They independently develop engine and chassis technology, with no foreign investment or cooperation, purely made in China. The quality of such domestic cars has improved a lot now, and their reputation is among the best in domestic SUVs. If you're choosing a car, you might consider their new models like the Shenshou series.
