THE STYLISH NEW HAVAL H6 GT range has begun arriving into Australian ports with an equally attractive price tag starting at $40,990 driveaway. Good looking, well-equipped and keenly priced, it is sure to continue the Chinese brand’s increasing sales into the Australian market.
Developed to offer buyers an alternative mid-sized SUV option when compared to its Haval H6 sibling, upon which it is based, the H6 GT will range will consist of two grades: the H6 GT Lux (2WD) and the H6 GT Ultra (4WD).
As expected from GWM, the H6 GT Lux is generously equipped offering a host of features that provide comfort, convenience and safety for drivers and passengers alike.
Features such as Comfort-Tek eco-leather seats, 10.25-inch colour LED instrument cluster and multimedia touchscreen, Apple CarPlay & Android Auto, 8-speaker DTS audio, electric tailgate, 19-inch black alloy wheels, 360-degree camera and a comprehensive suite of safety features are all standard.
At $40,900 driveaway the Haval H6 GT Lux will appeal to value-conscious buyers.
The H6 GT Ultra adds a 4WD drivetrain along with highlight features including Michelin Sport tyres, heated and cooled electrically adjustable Comfort-Tek eco-leather front seats, heated leather steering wheel, Heads Up Display, wireless phone charging, panoramic sunroof and fully automatic parking for just $46,490 Driveaway.
Built on the same global modular platform that also underpins the Haval H6 and the Jolion, the new H6GT is powered by a 2.0 litre petrol engine with 150kW of power and 320Nm of torque mated to a 7-speed Dual Clutch Transmission and an active exhaust booster for a sportier engine note.
Fuel economy is rated at 7.5 litres per 100km for the 2WD H6 GT Lux and 8.4L/100km for the 4WD H6 GT Ultra using 91 octane unleaded fuel.
The combination of GWM’s global modular platform and body structure combined with an impressive array of safety equipment also ensured that the H6 GT was able to secure a 5-star ANCAP safety rating.
Off the back of a record sales performance in June, GWM dealers have warmly welcomed the new Haval H6GT as another model to help continue the company’s sales momentum into the second half.
It is expected that the H6 GT could add as many as 400 units a month to GWM’s sales tally, which would help propel the company to a new annual sales record by year-end.
As with all GWM vehicles, the Haval H6 GT comes with a 7-year unlimited km warranty, 5-years roadside assistance and 5-years Capped Price Servicing.
