Overview
The Haval H9 is the largest vehicle ever developed by Great Wall Motors with the drive train being a new all-wheel drive system, [1][2] and is the second brand new SUV with a body-on-frame chassis developed by Haval, following the Haval H3 and Haval H5. It competes with the likes of the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado and Mitsubishi Pajero. THe H9 is available in both 5-seater and 7-seater configurations.
Construction is a body-on-frame chassis underpinned with double-wishbone front suspension, and a multi-link solid axle at the rear. Initial H9's were powered by a turbocharged 2.0L I4 petrol engine with 214 hp (160 kW) at 5500 rpm, and 260 lb⋅ft (353 N⋅m) of torque between 2000-4000 rpm with power being sent through a 6-speed automatic transmission. In 2017, the 2.0L had been reworked to produce 241 hp (180 kW) at 5500 rpm, and 258 lb⋅ft (350 N⋅m) of torque between 1800-4500 rpm. A ZF 8-speed automatic transmission was also added to improve fuel efficiency and performance.
An All-Terrain four-wheel-drive control system is available and modulates engine response between various modes including Auto, Snow, Sand, Mud and 4 Low.
The H9 was given a facelift for 2019 onwards consisting of a new front end as well as the rear spare tyre removed from the rear door.[3][4][5]
