What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the Haval F5?

According to official data, the Haval F5 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.7 seconds. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in layman's terms, represents how much force is available. The greater the torque, the more force is available to propel the vehicle, resulting in naturally faster acceleration. The maximum torque of the Haval F7 1.5T version is 285 Nm, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 9.7 seconds. The Haval F5 also has a torque of 285 Nm and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.7 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission is the medium for power delivery, inevitably involving power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The Haval F5 is equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (DCT). Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit is Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The Haval F7 1.5T version has a power-to-weight ratio of 105.62 Hp/T, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 9.7 seconds. The Haval F5 has a power-to-weight ratio of 95 Hp/T and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.7 seconds.
The Haval F5 has a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of approximately 9.7 seconds, based on my experience driving it for over two years. In city traffic, it starts smoothly, keeping up with traffic with just a light press on the throttle, without feeling sluggish. On the highway, the transmission shifts smoothly during acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h, with no noticeable lag. Compared to other SUVs, like the Geely Boyue, which takes around 10 seconds, the F5 is slightly faster, but it's tuned more for comfort than aggressive driving, making it pleasant to drive. Several factors affect acceleration: it's powered by a 1.5T engine with linear power delivery, and its body weight is well controlled, though it might slow down by about half a second when fully loaded. It's perfectly adequate for daily driving, especially suited for long trips, balancing safety and efficiency, but don't expect a racing car feel.
