Following the conquest of Yiliang, Yunnan Province, the "first bend in the world's highway", the Great Wall Haval H6S once again chose Zhangjiajie- Wulingyuan Bypass Road in Hunan Province for challenge. Such a frequent enthusiasm for mountain road challenges, for an SUV, I am afraid it is not an easy task, but H6S has chosen to go forward.
In March, Zhangjiajie has pleasant temperatures and fresh air. When our test drive team assembled from Wulingyuan and drove to Wulingyuan Avenue, the scenery on both sides of the elevated road was pleasant. Looking out from inside the car, you can see the clouds surrounding the peaks, the handsome peaks rising into the sky, and against the background of natural beauty, the Haval H6S, which adopts the design language of black sharks, is also like a beautiful landscape, jumping in the embrace of natural beauty.
Haval H6S was born from the third generation of H6, its overall style is more sporty and youthful, you can find the outline of H6 on its body, but the surrounding details have a unique trendy model. The front face of the H6S borrows from the shark's pectoral fin style, and the grille adopts a split "X" type, the upper end is a straight wind duct trim, the lower end is a densely woven diamond-shaped grille, and the carbon fiber pattern next to the bottom is a strip, highlighting the sportiness of the front.
The side shape of the body changed the straightness of the H6, starting from the C-pillar, and the line at the top began to fall, forming a cocked ducktail shape at the rear. The side skirt near the rear wheel is also specially designed with spoiler decoration, and the rear window is also equipped with an exaggerated spoiler.
The above appearance kits can be considered as the "atmosphere group" that shapes the sporty attributes of the H6S, and similar elements such as entering the car are also reflected in many details.
The most pleasing to young people is the sports-style integrated seat, which not only has a bright green Haval LOGO embroidery, but also matches the same color seat belt. The seat material is a combination of fur and leather, and the four door panels have the same collocation, which is to make people attracted by the "sense of movement" as soon as they sit in the car.
The interior layout of the H6S is in line with the H6, and the floating 12.3-inch central control screen plus 12.5-inch LCD instrument form a visual center. The actual display effect is not bad, the design of the UI is decent, because H6S is based on the Great Wall coffee intelligent platform, so the built-in car machine is the latest version, support voice control, networking functions, online music, online navigation, check violations and other functions, it is a pity that Apple CarPlay and Baidu CarLife are not supported.
The center console simplifies many of the physical buttons, retains only part of the air conditioning control and parking buttons, and the commonly used volume adjustment, home page switching and other functions are integrated into the steering wheel. It is worth noting that there is a custom button on the steering wheel that can be set to switch the driving mode, so that when it is necessary to overtake rapidly, it is still very convenient to switch the driving mode without clicking through the central control screen.
The gear switch is set as a knob, and there is a circle of chrome hemming on the outside, which has a certain sense of quality visually. However, there is a bit of a bug in the function of switching gears, when switching to D gears, the knob can also be rotated clockwise all the time, without the limit stuck. There may be some distress for users blind exercises.
Although the H6S uses the latest lemon platform, we only drove to the gasoline model with a 2.0T engine, and we did not have the opportunity to try the 1.5T model with DHT hybrid technology. Therefore, the dynamic experience part is only for the fuel version of the model.
This set of 2.0T plus 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission power combination, performance parameters belong to the upper middle level, the maximum horsepower of 211 horses, peak torque of 325 Nm, the top model equipped with a multi-plate clutch of the timely four-wheel drive, this combination is an old friend, in Haval's multiple models have been equipped, the stability performance is good.
The 4WD model has 7 driving modes, including Standard, Sport, Economy, Off Road, Sand, Snow and Track modes. In the 1-hour mountain road test drive, I tried the standard and sports, the two most commonly used models in the city, and its performance met my expectations.
In these two modes, the power output is not impatient, the difference between the two is not particularly obvious, may only have a slight speed and a change in the enthusiasm of the gear reduction, the overall is based on smoothness, as a city transportation use, these two modes will not have a particularly strong sense of movement.
Driving on mountain roads, the power reserve of this 2.0T is enough, and the torque that erupts after reaching the torque platform is also more than comfortable for supporting continuous acceleration uphill.
The gearbox's shift ride is also remarkable, and in both standard and sport modes, it's hard to make a very positive change (lifting gear), and the importance of ride is significantly higher than the speed of shift.
Don't forget, though, it also has a track mode. When you switch to track mode, the dashboard interface changes to a red sports theme, the exhaust valve opens, and you can hear a louder sound from the tail throat. If you go down the accelerator, the personality of the car seems to change, the power output is very sensitive, you can feel the obvious sense of movement, which is not only brought to you by the gearbox, but also given by the violent acceleration.
At this time, you need to have a more delicate footwork, sensitive power response, which will make your control of the vehicle more difficult. Track mode is more like leading you to an untamed wild horse, and if you're capable enough, it will bring you fun. If you just want to feel how much potential the car has, I advise everyone to try it out, one is that it will be very tiring as a transportation, and the second is that the continuous showmanship will also bring a greater burden to the braking system and power system of the vehicle.
The texture of the chassis in the dynamic test drive can be the part where I think there is room for improvement. In actual experience, the integrity of the chassis is general, and some damaged repair roads will be passed through during the mountain road, and the fine fragment vibration transmitted by the chassis is obvious, and there are more aftershocks. Fortunately, the left and right swing inhibition of the body can also be done, and it does not make people feel that the body shakes too much on the winding road, and has a certain degree of movement stability.
As a compact SUV positioned as young and sporty, H6S has indeed made great efforts in the creation of a sense of sport, and the internal scientific and technological equipment has also reached the mainstream level, while inheriting Haval's excellent space and riding experience, and power tuning has also targeted optimization and upgrading, which are the product selling points that can impress some young consumers.
With the strong endorsement of H6, this fellow disciple should get a lot of attention, and if it is further improved in the quality of dynamic sportsmanship, I believe it can become another best-selling model of Haval at this level.
