In fact, the Haval H9 comes in six models: Standard 5-seater, Standard 7-seater, Luxury 5-seater, Luxury 7-seater, Super Luxury 5-seater, and Super Luxury 7-seater. All are four-wheel-drive vehicles with a body weight of 2250 kg. Below is relevant information about the Great Wall H9: 1. In terms of body dimensions, it has a length of 4856mm, a width of 1926mm, a height of 1900mm, and a wheelbase of 2800mm. 2. For powertrain, the new vehicle continues to be equipped with a 2.0T gasoline engine and a diesel engine. The 2.0T gasoline engine delivers a maximum power of 185kW (251Ps) and a maximum torque of 355Nm, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The 2.0T twin-turbo diesel engine offers a maximum power of 140kW (190Ps) and a maximum torque of 420Nm, also matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
I've driven the Haval H9 several times, and the vehicle's weight is roughly between 2.2 to 2.3 tons, depending on the configuration. The gasoline version is slightly lighter, while the diesel version is heavier. It feels very stable to drive, maintaining composure even at 120 km/h on the highway, which gives a strong sense of security. However, the heavy body also has drawbacks. In city traffic, fuel consumption can spike to around 12 liters per 100 km, and tire wear is faster, requiring frequent pressure checks to prevent blowouts. Additionally, the weight is an advantage for off-roading—it provides excellent climbing traction without issues—but the large turning radius makes parking difficult, and narrow alleys can be problematic. Overall, regular maintenance of the suspension and braking systems can help balance the weight's impact, prolonging the vehicle's lifespan without much hassle.
