The new-generation GWM Haval H7 has launched in South Africa and Australia, featuring a boxy design and unibody platform with 210 mm of ground clearance. It is available in hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions, both with all-wheel drive and a 580 mm wading depth, priced from $46,990 drive-away. The model now includes a locking rear differential, 19-inch black alloy wheels, and a full-size spare wheel mounted on the tailgate, with boot space of 586 litres expanding to 1,404 litres.
The H7 offers a 1.5L turbo-petrol engine paired with electric motors, delivering system outputs of 182kW/670Nm for the hybrid and 320kW/670Nm for the PHEV, which has a 137 km electric range under WLTP. All variants have a claimed payload of 500 kg and come with a seven-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty, with the battery covered for eight years or 150,000 km. A third-row, extended-length version is planned for 2027.
