2 Answers
The Haval F7 is equipped with two engine options: a 1.5T turbocharged engine and a 2.0T turbocharged engine. The 1.5T engine delivers a maximum power of 124 kW and a peak torque of 285 N·m, while the 2.0T engine produces a maximum power of 165 kW and a peak torque of 385 N·m. Both engines are paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Haval F7 is a compact 5-door, 5-seat SUV with body dimensions of 4620 mm in length, 1846 mm in width, and 1690 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2725 mm. It features front-wheel drive, with a MacPherson strut independent suspension at the front and a double-wishbone independent suspension at the rear.
The Haval F7 SUV is equipped with engines that are quite sophisticated, as I've discussed with friends multiple times as an automotive enthusiast. There are mainly two common configurations: one is the 1.5-liter turbocharged GW4B15 engine, delivering approximately 169 horsepower and 275 Nm of torque, providing quick acceleration in city driving and effortless overtaking; the other is the 2.0-liter turbocharged GW4C20 engine, offering around 224 horsepower, with stronger power output, making it suitable for high-speed or fully loaded scenarios. Both engines are independently developed by Great Wall and boast good fuel efficiency for their class, with a combined fuel consumption of about 8-9 liters per 100 km, making them economical for daily commuting. The driving experience is responsive, smooth at low speeds, and while the engine noise becomes slightly noticeable at high speeds, it remains acceptable. Compared to some joint-venture brands, it offers better value for money with lower maintenance costs, making it particularly suitable for young families or those seeking practical performance. After long-term use, I've found the engine reliability to be quite good, with occasional minor issues like faster oil consumption, which can be avoided with regular maintenance.
