  • I set out to do a simple review through my eyes of the @HavalSouthAfrica H6 HEV and, well... Here's 20 minutes of me talking about it's pro's and con's. I do hope you will stay to the end to see some truly bad dancing.

    Thanks for the review bro. I was looking at Haval Dargo and H6 Hybrid, then I went to Toyota center to review RAV4, bro I got dissapointed for so much money they give such a bad quality RAV4, I was dissapointed really and comparing to Haval, it felt so good that Haval price is even lower but performance and quality build felt so much better. I did 2 test drives for Haval Dargo and H6 (without hybrid version), I enjoyed it a lot. On a bumby road feels so smooth and there is good sound proff inside also. All these 360 cameras has better quality than RAV4 with old style monitor which has only 1 or 2 cameras (front and back). Currently I have Toyota Auris but planing to buy a second car because I want SUV something higher and more practice. I think in 2023 I will order my Haval H6 Hybrid, here in my country Moldova (next to Romania) price for best version is around $30k and it's way more bettern than RAV4 for around $40k which don't even hav a opening roof. Thanks for review again. Love it!

    Nice review, by the way, for safety reasons keep keys in your pocket and not in the car since you won't need them because of push start and when you're away, your car won't start. You won't need to remember to pick them up before you leave your vehicle because they'll be already in your pocket.

      Honestly mate I dont think you can go wrong with the H6 HEV. It is a fantastic vehicle.
      i had another one on test recently and i did find it's prone to wheel spin under heavy acceleration when over taking but that can be attributed to the impressive response of the electric motors. With some getting used to i think driving style would adapt.
      Thanks for the comment though, i would appreciate your views, likes and comments on my other videos too.

    We bought a black one of these. Not the easiest to keep clean but looks great. Its the wifes car and she is in love with it. First time filling up we covered just over 900km, economy is at 6.9l / 100km. The storage area under where you placed your keys is great and quite large as well. She just loves the auto reverse parking feature. Any excuse to go shopping now it seems. As you stated it is very powerful and responsive. Im sure we will have this car for quite a few years to come.

    Great review, youre the first person to talk about the air vents in the front. I do agree with you that the boot is a big concern, i love my luggage space big and versatile and while its long and wide its not deep like the non hybrid. Also that lack of spare wheel is a no go for me, ive gotten way too many flats in my life to let that slide. Also the reason car manufacturers are going button-less is because its cheaper. The wiring looms that make buttons possible are expensive, more now since the supply chain issues and the fact most of them are made in Ukraine. Finally the cant really move the load cover anywhere else, that back window is really high and small(thank goodness this comes with a reverse camera as standard), to reposition it would make that back window even more useless.

    Great review. Strange that you can't change the interior light colours, as you can in the H6C. The boot in the H6C is also disappointingly small and while the aircon vents are much bigger, I find the aircon just isn't good enough for the SA heat.

    I would like to have your opinion about this speed/odo display behind me steering wheel which from a distance looks more like a tilted smartphone. Many car makers are now fitting this instead of the conventional cluster of guages and speedo and odo.

    • @capetownactiveofficial
      @capetownactiveofficial  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey hey. Thanks for the comment! So my personal opinion is a bit mixed... Im a little old school in that i like traditional cluster layouts but on the flip-side, Haval have done such a great job with this as it is customisable and i think it is pretty necessary in that you'd want to easily access info on what the vehicle is doing (being a hybrid)
      I guess it always comes down to personal preference but my preference changes depending on the vehicle. This vehicle, perfect... but for example when i tested the Mustange 5.0L V8... Give me traditional clusters.
      Hope that somewhat satisfies your intrigue.

      @@capetownactiveofficial Thanks for the reply. Yes I agree, I'm also an old school instrument cluster enthusiast, hence my question. I prefer those ones that have dedicated slots in dash, it gives it a more bulky feel typical for a serious sporty car or an SUV.
      This HEV is great as at a very reasonable purchase price and big imposing dimensions, 6.5 ltrs/100 km makes it one of the best options and takes it far ahead of the competition.

      1) I did experience a little torque steer but really nothing to write home about (in my experience)
      2) Living in the suburbs, unfortunately didn't get a chance to test self park but reviews i have seen show that it works a treat.
      3) Turning circle, no hassles!
      4) Being a test vehicle i didn't test hard breaking but given the feel of the vehicle and the all-round drive quality, i don't think there would be any issues.

    Havjng lived with my h6 hev or 6 months and 8000kms it takes alot to get used to the lane keeping is a pita you are constantly fighting the wheel and doesnot allow smooth driving on county roads it can be turned off but only on start up
    The adaptive cruise control also slows you downon sweeping country bends so if in the country and what to flow into and out of corners drive the car dont cruise
    A minor problem is if you like to rest your elbow on the top of the door you will end up with pins and needles in your right hand
    This is what i have found after a 2 week drive almost 3500 kms trip
