The Haval H2 Red Label debuted on the 2014 Beijing Auto Show. Despite having a Red Haval badge, the crossover was launched before the Red and Blue label market strategy.[1] The Haval H2 Blue Label was launched later on the 2016 Chengdu Auto Show making the H2 the first Haval to be sold in both red and blue labels.[2] While being priced similarly and having the same powertrain and performance, Red Label cars usually feature more conservative styling and Blue Label cars feature more aggressive styling and is aimed at younger markets.

The Haval H2 was launched in Malaysia in May 2016 with three variants available: Standard, Comfort and Premium. The Standard could only be had with a six-speed manual gearbox while the Comfort and Premium variants could only be had with a six-speed automatic unit.[3] Early models were fully imported from China with locally assembled models officially available as of September 2016. Only two locally assembled models were available: Comfort and Premium.[4]
