What transmission does the Haval H2s use?
2 Answers
The Haval H2s is equipped with Hyundai's HPT automatic transmission. The Haval H2s is a new compact SUV from the Haval brand. Its name naturally brings to mind the Haval H2, but this all-new compact SUV is smaller than the H2 in terms of body dimensions and wheelbase, so it actually has little to do with the H2. In terms of power, the new Haval H2s is powered by a 1.5T engine with a maximum output of 150 horsepower and a peak torque of 210 Nm. For the transmission system, the new model comes with a 6-speed manual or 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, and offers three driving modes to choose from: Standard, Economy, and Sport.
When driving my Haval H2S, I noticed it primarily uses a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, which delivers crisp gear shifts, especially during high-speed overtaking with quick response. The design advantage lies in its high transmission efficiency, contributing to fuel savings, making it ideal for urban commuting. However, I've occasionally experienced slight jerks in low-speed traffic jams, requiring some adaptation in throttle control. Maintenance-wise, regular checks on the dual-clutch system are necessary to avoid wear from prolonged low-speed crawling—overall, it's beginner-friendly. The upgraded model also offers a manual option, with a comfortably positioned gear lever, allowing seasoned drivers to enjoy more driving fun. The battery-related components, like the start-assist system, work in harmony to ensure smoother starts, demonstrating good daily reliability.
