10 years after listing, Haval H6 sales have exceeded 3.6 million units, becoming one of the representatives of domestic models, in the past, the Great Wall to H6 as the center, fission out of a lot of different versions, to meet all the imagination of the Chinese people for a car, in the recent terms, with the third generation H6 and the National Dynasty version of H6, now in order to meet the younger consumer market, Haval has launched a new model, Haval H6S was conceived, today to share the test driving experience for it.
S stands for SPORT, from the name is very direct to tell you, this is a sport-oriented model, Haval H6S uses a new black shark aesthetic design language, in addition to the headlight shape, other parts have been reshaped again, the size of the net compared with the third generation of H6 has increased, so the momentum is more fierce, in addition to the grille above can see a similar air intake design, but the interior is solid, so it only plays a decorative role.
In terms of details, the front and rear, including the interior of the car, have this imitation carbon fiber material as decoration, and the young sports atmosphere created by this combination is very strong.
The straight waistline on the side of the car, from the headlights to the taillights, looks very tough, and in other respects, the exterior mirrors, 19-inch rims and door frames are all blackened, and the sense of sportiness is further emphasized.
A 'small Easter egg' can also be found on the side, and a 'shark fin' can be seen in the lower skirt position, which can also play a certain role in drainage in addition to being good-looking.
The rear can be said to be the essence of the whole car, first of all, the back-up style is very stylish, the diffuser below looks very thick, giving people a feeling that the next plate is very stable, and the twin tail design that has been more popular in the past six months is also used in the H6S, which is also rare in the same level.
Because of the body streamline factor, the car does not need a rear wiper, the air flow can pass through the rear windshield, thereby removing the rain on the top and the like, and the wiper is indispensable on the conventional SUV model, so it looks more prominent than the car.
The design of the double tail is very flattering, while meeting the aesthetic needs of users, it also achieves the same functional effect of the rear wiper.
The sporty atmosphere is even stronger in the car, with integrated sports seats, brightly colored seat belts, large areas of imitation carbon fiber trim and a lot of fluorescent green stitching.
The central storage cover and the seat are covered with a large area of Alcantara material, and the seat is also composed of fiber material splicing process, which shows that haval H6S is quite sincere in terms of materials and workmanship.
You know, Harvard H6S is the first model created by the lemon platform and coffee intelligence, in terms of intelligent configuration, equipped with FACE ID, HUD head-up display, 10.25-inch LCD instrument, 12.3 central control screen can achieve the mainstream demand of the function, operation fluency and menu logic performance are still good.
The only slot point is the UI interface of the car machine, which is not in line with my personal aesthetic, if only it could be more delicate.
In terms of power, the H6S has two powertrains, one is the 1.5T HEV hybrid DHT; the other is the 2.0T version that was test-driven today, with a maximum power of 155kW and a maximum torque of 325N·m in terms of parameters, matching a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, the official Zero Hundred Acceleration 6.8s, for a compact SUV, this achievement has reached the standard.
In fact, under the conventional road conditions, due to traffic flow and speed limits, there is little chance to fully experience its absolute power output point, and today's test drive place we chose in Chongqing, where the road conditions are very special, uphill and downhill and curves are very much, in such an environment, this 2.0T four-wheel drive version of H6S power is easy to reflect.
In actual experience, when the torque speed reaches about 1500, the peak torque output of 325 will burst out, and the earlier speed torque can provide acceleration power faster, and it can be more comfortable when accelerating overtaking, and the maximum torque speed of H6S is between 1500-4000 rpm, which can last until about 4000 rpm, and the torque speed range is relatively wide, which ensures the acceleration ability of the rear section or climb.
In order to make this Haval H6S also have better personality and sport in terms of handling, it is also specially equipped with an exclusive track mode, and the sound wave of the first exhaust after opening is significantly better (the horsepower value in the heart is increased by 15 horses), in addition to the faster power response, the proportion of the steering wheel has also changed.
Straight line to see the power, and the corner to look at the chassis, Haval H6S body is built by the lemon platform architecture, in order to make the driving control more pure, H6S's center of mass (mass center point) intentionally reduced by 10mm.
Because the center of mass of the vehicle declines, compared with the conventional SUV model cornering, the body roll is not obvious, the frame and the chassis can fit well, the center of gravity transfer is done very well, in the actual cornering can still be confident to give oil, so the cornering speed will be faster, the straight line is not really fast, the cornering is really fast, this sentence is how it comes.
In fact, before driving this H6S, I was thinking about a question, will the drop in the center of mass have an impact on its comfort?
First of all, the filling of the integrated seat is quite full, sitting is very comfortable, the support of the seat flanks is also good, when parking I also observed, the front McPherson rear multi-link suspension behavior is not compressed because of the drop of the center of mass, in addition to the filter shock, the chassis whether longitudinal or transverse stretches are satisfied with the level that should be, but when passing through some higher retard belts, the rear suspension of the aftershock treatment, I think there is still room for improvement.
HUD head-up display information is also quite rich, speed, navigation, media and other information can be displayed, the picture is also very clear and intuitive, I am 175cm tall, the display height is also quite in line with most people's line of sight angle, in driving the gaze does not need to move away, you can easily obtain.
Finally, to briefly talk about the back row performance, generally speaking, there is a drawback of the sneakback model, that is, the head space of the second row will be compressed, but few people will notice that H6S is from the C pillar to start to do the back, theoretically more advantageous than the general slipback model in terms of head space, and the internal roof has also been hollowed out, and the actual experience of the head space performance is still very good.
The rear seats are also integrated, the padding is no different from the front seats, the angle is also very good, the knee point is also well fitted, the configuration, the charging interface, the air conditioning outlet, although the Haval H6S is a more personalized SUV, but the care of the rear row is still quite sufficient.
Ah Chuan commented on the car
Finally, a simple summary, the new car in the appearance of the third generation of H6 compared with a great change, slip back and other styling design is also easy to capture the aesthetics of young consumers, in addition to the use of a large area of interior Alcantara plus double tail and other design is also enough to the next cost, compared with the third generation of H6, 13.89-16.49 million yuan of guidance price is indeed sincere.
What is more surprising is that the dynamic performance also has a clear 'personality' difference with the third generation of H6, and the sports transformation is quite thorough, so I think in the field of sports SUV segmentation, Haval H6S is still quite attractive.
