What is the emission standard of the Haval H2s?
2 Answers
The Haval H2s complies with the China V emission standard, which is equivalent to the Euro 5 emission standard currently implemented in Europe. It imposes stricter limits on vehicle emissions such as nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. The dimensions of the Haval H2s are: length 4195 mm, width 1772 mm, height 1638 mm, with a wheelbase of 2550 mm. The Haval H2s is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 110 kW and a maximum torque of 210 Nm. It is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The front suspension type is MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension type is torsion beam non-independent suspension.
I have been driving my Haval H2s for almost five years now, and this car indeed meets the China 5 emission standard. I remember when I bought it, the salesperson specifically explained the features of China 5, which is more environmentally friendly than the older standards but not as good as the current China 6. For city use, the annual inspections have gone smoothly without much trouble, though in some larger cities with more restrictions, China 5 cars might face stricter exhaust emission tests. Considering the cost of ownership, the fuel consumption is average, around 8-9 liters per 100 km, but the space and comfort are quite good, making it especially suitable for daily family commuting. I would suggest that if you plan to keep it for the long term, regularly maintain the exhaust system to avoid the check engine light coming on. Overall, China 5 cars can still be driven for many years as long as you pay attention to changes in environmental policies.
