Haval Red Rabbit DHT: Isn't a life-focused SUV fuel-efficient?
Text/Su Jin Ji
Although the Haval H6 at this stage is still the C position in the domestic SUV field, many of Haval's models also have a high reputation, and in recent years, the hot models, in addition to the Haval big dog, there are Haval red rabbits. Although these three models are in the field of compact SUVs, there are differences in product positioning.
Among them, Haval Red Rabbit focuses on the field of young sports, and this model has a sports orientation in both the appearance level and the power level, and the power output of the model is even more aggressive. But at the end of last year, Haval Red Rabbit added a hybrid version of the DHT King Rabbit, which uses the Great Wall's hybrid technology.
The DHT King Rabbit still continues the family design of the Red Rabbit, and has not changed much in terms of appearance, and even the model has not added a clear logo at the appearance level, but its energy model has changed. Since the model added electric drive, it did not give high power in terms of engine.
The model is mated to a 1.5L self-priming engine, which gives a power of 95Ps + 125N·m. In addition, the model is also matched with a single motor in the front axle, and the power of the motor is given 156Ps +250N·m. The drivetrain that matches this power is the 2-speed hybrid transmission (DHT), which is also the special transmission system for this power.
From this set of powertrain, it can be seen that the drive of the model mainly relies on the power of the motor, but at the same time the engine will also be involved in the drive. The biggest feature of the model is fuel saving, because the fuel consumption of the low-power self-priming engine itself is lower than that of the turbine engine of the same displacement, coupled with the motor with the drive, it can save a lot of fuel consumption for the model.
The official NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption is 4.7L per 100 kilometers, which is not high for the model. Because this powertrain has good fuel economy, its household trend will become very obvious. But this does not affect the power output of the model, the motor's power response will often be prioritized into the drive, so the start of the model is equally rapid.
The engine acts as a range extender and has a power reserve, so this model does not need to be connected to the power supply for charging. If you want to travel long distances, you don't need to worry about the endurance of this model, as long as the vehicle has enough fuel, it can continue to drive, because the engine will also supply electricity during operation.
As an SUV model with sporty attributes, it still uses independent suspension in front and rear in the chassis, and the anti-roll ability of the model in the corners is excellent, and the sporty attributes still exist. The DHT King Rabbit is matched with an 18-inch rim, which matches the overall proportions of the body very well and does not feel top-heavy.
This model has a minimum ground clearance of 158 mm, an approach angle of 17°, a departure angle of 25°, and a maximum climb of 35%, which belongs to the off-road attributes of regular urban SUVs. DHT King Rabbit is more suitable for driving on paved roads, dealing with some small ditches and small bumps is not too much of a problem, but it is not suitable for driving in extreme road conditions, because the chassis part is equipped with a battery pack, if you bump into the chassis, it may affect the electric drive system. In addition to this, the model also comes with a snow mode, which can increase the ability to get out of trouble when the road is affected by the weather.
summary:
The DHT King Rabbit provided by Haval Red Rabbit this time is not only to increase the selectivity of products, but also to further lay the foundation for product layout. Like the red rabbit consumer group does not have too many age restrictions and gender restrictions, in addition to the group that wants to find driving pleasure in this model, there are some groups that will consider the fuel economy of the model and the practicality of home, and the DHT king rabbit, although it is not a plug-in hybrid model that can be on the green card, it can give real fuel economy, and it can also save users from installing independent charging devices at home, saving a lot of trouble. While retaining power, it also brings higher practical value.
