Haval H6 HEV - Owner's Review (Update)
Where dis you buy the vinyl..?
Good day. Where did you fit the screen protectors…?
How did you get to 24km/l?😊
My average on the car was 16.7Km/l
Hi, how do I set the wipers vertical so that I can open the Bonnet ? Tqvm.
Open the driver door, pull on wiper stalk and keep pulling for 2 sec
Thank you for the explanation
Really enjoyed this video. Thanx for keeping it real and honest.
Where did you get your sub fitted ?
Hi Jordan, in a comment you are mentioned changed the stereo.. What did you actually do? Looking at H6 Hybrid and noticed a few people said rather ordinary sound
I just had a subwoofer added..
Hi daar. Watse fuel consumption kry jy en wat is jou suggestion op regenerative braking. Party mense se di save petrol maar ek weet nie so lekker. Myne was op laagste setting maar ek dit nou weer terug op normal gesit. Ek kry 10.8 km/l en ek was gese 18kilos to ek kar gekoop het. Het kar nou bietjie meer as a maand. City en highway driving mixed. Eks in UAE. Haval H6 HEV 2025
My swakste km/L was 15.1. Ek het oor en oor 16.7Km/l gekry.. highway use gebruik meer brandstof as stadsverkeer. Die nuwer H6 modelle het 1 pedal driving wat myne nie gehad nie. My setting was op high. Hy spaar ni petrol nie, hy recharge jou batterye vinniger wat dan die ev meer beskikbaar stel vir gebruik.
Thanks. I'm still about a week of driving my haval h6 hev 2025. Just want to know how much kilometers do you get in full tank?
If I remember correctly about 950Km
I'm about 2 weeks now with my haval h6 hev 2025. I drive 180km every day. The first 2 times I gas up full tank I'm getting 770km. Not sure now I'm getting only 700km. My average consumption is 8L/100km
What about auto record while driving?
Auto record?
@@The_Actual_Jordan Yes. Record automatically when the car starts driving.
Very helpful. Thanks
Hi Great video , im also from South Africa and recently got a DS80 that I'm struggling to get started up
Any idea why? Myne take 3 kicks to start after months of no use. Please see my latest DS80 Video
u dont gota apologise for accent boet!
Please do buckle up for your own safety. Good video nonetheless 👍🏻
Unfortunately these bikes consume a lot of engine oil (200ml/1000km) and it is a petty because it is such a beautiful bike!!!The VOGE 525DSX is the best VOGE choice because it has a more reliable engine!!!Always ride with care!Be well my friend! Greetings from Greece!
Thanks for your comments! Luckily this one has not consumed any oil so far.. Unfortunately this is the only Voge model available in RSA. The reason therefore remains a mistery! Stay safe!!!
@@The_Actual_Jordan in about what speed you ride it on highways?A friend of mine told me that this bike can not travel above 110kph because the engine runs in so high rpm!
The bike is not mine. Belongs to my brother.
Great video! I'm going to look for one of these for my grandson.
Please see my latest DS80 video
I turn it off, but it resets on each new journey?
Yes
Haval h6 ultra is amazing 🎉
How do you open the fuel tank, do you just press and push to open it or is there a button inside the car for this function?
When the doors are unlocked the fuel door is open
@@The_Actual_Jordan thank you so much
Jordan, I saw the screen showing BEV driving, Tandem & Parallel. What is Tandem and Parallel ? During Tandem Driving, both combustion engine & battery working together, correct? What about during Parallel? Only the petrol engine working, yes?Thanks
Hi, I always wondered why so many modes are really necessary. To be honest with you, I could never really figure it out completely myself...
@@The_Actual_Jordan Jordan, I received an official reply from GWM. Just sharing it with others too. BEV Driving Mode In BEV mode, the vehicle relies completely on its battery for power Tandem Driving Mode In this mode the engine does not connect directly to the wheels where the engine functions as a generator to recharge the high-voltage battery while driving. Parallel Driving Mode In Parallel mode, the wheels are driven by both the engine and the high-voltage battery simultaneously. Full power to the wheels.
Hi Jordan, really appreciate your honest review and comments. Excellent from an owner. I read the turning circle/angle was big? Meaning you need a few 3-point turns out from a tight spot? Do you experience that? Thanks. Loke, KL Malaysia
I did not experience ANY issue whatsoever with the turning circle, no.
Thanks for the video from an owner's perspective as from the influencers.. Have put down a deposit and looking forward to getting the car.. Cheers👍
Thank you for clearly pointing out, like , dislike.. I was testing out the car 2 days ago.. wow !! The most touque among all mid-size suv. Here from Penang Malaysia. Sure is quite very smooth and with lots of power, generally all the dislike is covered by likes.. I can accept it.. no issue Only no spare tyre need to go by faith.. I am going to get one.

Thank you so much especially for customizing the explanation to SA
Is there a battery filter for Haval H6 Hev ? Need to reduce dust collections which prevents overheating of the battery
Can you share how’s the wind noise levels?
Plannimg on doing a feedback video very soon..
@@The_Actual_Jordan Thanks. I am planning to buy this weekend, if you could give an idea/jist of how it is that would be helpful : )
@@rajas27 What I can tell you is that I love the helmet and the paint quality. I like the Visor and the way it seals. Wind noise doesnt bother me but it sounds quite good. Make sure you fit and select the one that fits. They are quite stiff when new. The quality of the helmet is a lot higher than other helmets similarly priced. The sun visor system is cable operated and is smooth as butter!
@@The_Actual_Jordan Thanks man! Can you let me know by how much does loosen/settle with?
On my bike, I sit behind a high visor. So, I cannot truthfully comment on that until I have tested it on another bike
Nice job as usual mate..👍
Awesome!
I enjoyed that. Riding under the warm African sun. Cheers from New Zealand. (NCs rock)
Thank you very much!
Plastic petrol tank? And have the car have a plate under when u off road? Eish
Wys videos bietjie nader asb !!
😎😎😎😎
Greetings from Mexico🇲🇽 sir! These videos are incredibly helpful 🤩
I read the manual and it actually has 3x sensors near the middle of the back. If you sweep your foot across all 3x of them and don't stand too close to the car it seems to work every time. It was a huge mystery to me before lol, you really need to know exactly what to do to get it to work every time.
Hey can you recommend the water coolant ? My is a bit low
Please consult your dealership
Great video. Watching all the way from Trinidad in the Caribbean. Considering the H6 as my next ride.
Thank you extreamly helpful
This vid is LEKKER! Thanks bro
These videos are great primer, many thanks!
Very informative many thanks
I’ve just purchased a Havel H6 hev, (black interior, black wheels, blue paintwork) what products would you consider essential for maintaining it? I’m in Mauritius so we won’t get any cold weather, but we will get plenty of rain.
Piano black plastic scratches very easily. Extreme care must be taken to avoid scratching. I will suggest a paint protection film (see if you can get in your area). The wheels needs to be washed with a soft mitt and dried in the same way as explained.. Waxing or ceramic coating the wheels might be a good idea. Look into having the entire car ceramic coated or be prepared to apply a wax coat regularly.
I learned from this guy. Listen to him he knows his stuff.
@@The_Actual_Jordanmany thanks
@@callmeKaboushe sure does, I’ve learned quite a bit already!
The haval h6 hev 2025 has changed facelift with largerinfotainment screen.
Hi, I see the bottle with anti freeze in, but where to check the water? Where is the radiator cap?
Harsh braking at curves can be corrected by software update. Book it at the dealers they will sort it out. Mine has been sorted and enjoys it over the meanders in Mpumalanga roads.
I was going to get a used RAV4 hybrid, but for the same price I could get new top spec H6 hev, bigger boot, sunroof, self park, so that’s were I went!
Is daai air rider die moeite werd?
BESLIS!
I was seriously looking at getting a used Rav4, I’d done many months research, and like many I’d dismissed Chinese cars (shades of how Korean cars used to be treated) then got a lift in my friends Jolion, and was seriously impressed, which sent me down a TH-cam research rabbit hole. Yesterday I went to a car show, headed straight to the Haval stand, (intent on testing the Jolion) and was offered a test drive in the H6 hev, I’d never driven an automatic before, let alone a car this big! Both my wife and I were gobsmacked at the quality of the interior, the space in the back, the boot space, the sunroof, had I gotten in a Mercedes by mistake? After a quick orientation by the demonstrator, I took it for a drive, through a busy car park, and some tight manoeuvres to get out onto open roads, it handled like a dream, and I’d never used automatic or driven a hybrid before, it was intuitive to drive, and in just a few minutes I was confidently seeing what this car can do, wow, it’s got some grunt! I’d seen some reviews say it’s not that agile around tight corners, I had no issues, & the 360 cameras automatically showed me how close obstacles were, such a brilliant feature! At the end of the test drive I reverse parked with confidence, I particularly like how when I was navigating around a busy car park getting out of the car show and onto main roads, the 360 camera automatically switches on if you’re getting close to anything, I love this! I was also impressed at how quiet the car was, I didn’t even notice the petrol engine kick in, only when I put my foot down on an open dual carriageway up to the 110km/hr limit did I hear some growl! I have obviously read about the issues with menu diving for the controls, hopefully that can be addressed with some software updates, but for me, the main priorities are cost, space, drive ability & obviously value for money, and this hits the spot in a big way. I was initially looking at the Jolion, but the boot wasn’t big enough, and there was a special offer on at the car show, saving about £1.7k so it was an absolute no brainer, I could get a top of the range brand new car, for the price of a 2 year old middle range RAV4 hybrid. If I can get in this after only driving a manual smaller car, and drive with confidence and ease in just a few minutes, that is a very good sign! I’m 6’2” there’s plenty of room, for leg, and head, there’s plenty of space in the back for me, and it’ll fit 3 adults too. It took just few minutes for me to feel confident and relaxed driving this car, and I’m confident the safety features like the 360 camera, the elevated driving position, and the 5 ⭐️ safety rating will give my wife confidence in driving too!
Same exact situation here just bought h6 hev
My country will be launching the Haval H6 this coming September 24th. We need such a video and other informational videos from you. Thanks again, Jordan.
