What is the measured minimum ground clearance of the Haval H9?
1 Answers
Haval H9 has a minimum ground clearance of 206mm, an approach angle of 32 degrees, and a departure angle of 28 degrees. Concept of ground clearance: Ground clearance refers to the distance between the ground and the rigid parts underneath the vehicle. The ground clearance of a vehicle varies depending on whether it is unloaded or loaded. Ground clearance is categorized into unloaded and loaded conditions. The ground clearance under loaded conditions is also known as the minimum ground clearance, which refers to the shortest distance between the lowest protruding point of the vehicle's chassis and the ground when the vehicle is parked on a level surface under its rated maximum load. Characteristics of ground clearance: Ground clearance is related to the vehicle's load—the heavier the load, the smaller the ground clearance. Vehicles with smaller ground clearance have a lower center of gravity but poorer off-road capability. Vehicles with larger ground clearance have better off-road capability. Higher ground clearance not only improves performance on gravel and mountain roads but also helps prevent water from entering the exhaust pipe when driving through flooded areas and makes it easier to park on curbs or parking spaces with height differences.
