If you have to choose the most peculiarly named car brand, Great Wall Motors can be said to be the most worthy of the name, and among them, Haval deserves to be the top of the list. This domestic best-selling SUV brand, its product naming from the simple H, F series, until today's red rabbit, big dog, it can be said that in addition to the brain hole is also getting younger and younger, and this year's Haval's heaviest SUV model has won the wide attention of consumers, it is the Haval mythical beast.
By the way, this time we don't talk about 1.5T, nor do we talk about HEV, but the real 2.0T four-wheel drive version of the mythical beast.
01
Exterior interior review
Based on the XY concept car, the Haval Mythical Beast is positioned as a medium-sized SUV, and the new car is completely different from any of the previous Haval products, which uses a split headlight design, supplemented by LED daytime running lights. Coupled with the LED near and far light source integrated with the forward grille, it is much stronger than the previous products in terms of scientific and technological sense and futuristic sense. In the middle net section, the Haval Divine Beast adopts a star-orbit design language, so that from a visual point of view, the sense of horizontal stretch is very strong. In order to be closer to the aesthetic preferences of young consumers, orange decorative lines are used in many places throughout the car, making this sacred beast look more eye-catching.
If the design of the front of the car is enough to subvert our cognition of an old brand, then the design of the rear is probably much stronger than the front of the car, in addition to the design elements are more abundant, the overall sense of layering is also very strong, the taillights of the polyline shape protrude out of the car, and the rear fenders are integrated, and after the upper turn over, a convex shape is also formed in the tail box, and it has to be said that this time Haval finally designed a sense of strength that an SUV should have.
Entering the car, the interior design of the Haval Divine Beast is also different from the previous Great Wall Motors, speaking of differences, the first thing to talk about is the design of this gear, which liberates the space of the console below the central control and makes the experience of the hanging gear very smooth. The front of the vehicle is equipped with two screens, namely a 12.3-inch full-color LCD instrument and a 14.6-inch central control large screen, which is slightly tilted to the driver's side in order to avoid reflection when illuminated by strong light. In addition, wireless charging, intelligent interconnection, head-up display and other common functions are equipped.

Performance testing
0-100km/h acceleration time: 6.98s
The outside temperature of the test day was 11 ° C, and when starting at full speed on the completely dry asphalt road, because of the strong initial power, the front suspension of the Haval Divine Beast would have a momentary visible stretch, at which time the front of the car would be slightly lifted, but limited by the blessing of the 235mm tire width, the driving wheel did not slip. The power response of the initial section of the vehicle is very fast, and the acceleration of the rear section is much more linear than that of the first section, and finally the hundred is completed in the 3rd gear, and the acceleration time of 0-100km/h is measured to be 6.98s.
100-0km/h braking distance: 36.81m
When braking at full force, the compression of the front suspension is more obvious, the feeling in the car is not as exaggerated as visually, the timing of the ABS system intervention is very accurate, and when braking urgently, the rear of the car can still maintain good tracking. The final braking distance was measured at 36.81m. From the perspective of the braking curve, although the Haval Divine Beast has excellent braking performance, the overall performance of the force is relatively soft, which belongs to the step-by-step setting. What is surprising is that this achievement can indeed give people a big enough surprise when compared with competitors.
03
Noise test
In the noise test, the idle noise of the Haval Beast is maintained at about 39.5dB, when the vehicle reaches 60km/h, the decibel meter is displayed as 59.6dB, and after 80km/h, it is 63.3dB, and when the speed reaches 100km/h, the tire noise caused by the 235mm tire width is transmitted into the car, and the noise meter is displayed as 65.6dB.
04
Pure comfort orientation Not passionate enough but brisk
In terms of power, our test drive is equipped with a four-wheel drive version of a 2.0T four-cylinder engine, with a maximum power of 165kW (224PS)/5500-6000rpm and a peak torque of 345N·m/1500-4000rpm, which is matched by a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission independently developed by Great Wall Motors.
