Chinese Haval H6 SUV Crash Test – REALLY Safe??

GWM Haval H6 awarded 5 star safety rating

Australasia’s independent voice on vehicle safety, ANCAP, has announced a 5 star safety rating for the Haval H6 following completion of the latest round of testing against the stringent 2020-2022 rating criteria.

The Haval H6 mid-sized SUV performed well across all areas of assessment, achieving solid scores for its protection of adult occupants, children, pedestrians and cyclists. The H6 also performed well for its ability to actively avoid or reduce the effects of a range of potential crashes through its onboard safety systems.

Full points were scored for protection to the driver in both the side impact and oblique pole tests. Full points were also scored for front and rear-seat occupants in relation to whiplash protection. Full points were recorded for the front-seat passenger in the frontal offset test, however protection to the driver’s chest was scored as MARGINAL indicating some risk of chest injury based on dummy measurements. A penalty was also applied for the driver’s footwell, which showed some signs of loss of integrity in the frontal offset test.

Performance of the H6’s active safety systems revealed good results. ‘Good’ performance was seen across all emergency lane keeping test scenarios – including its ability to avoid a run-off-road crash with an unmarked road edge. The H6’s car-to-car and car-to-cyclist autonomous emergency braking system also provided good levels of performance, as did its ability to prevent a collision with another vehicle in the turn-across-path intersection test scenario.

Child occupant protection, and the ability of the H6 to safely accommodate a range of typical child restraints also scored highly.

Haval is becoming very popular in South Africa. I see them around a lot

Doesn’t matter about the safety rating. People here in Australia bought it before it was rated. It’s very cheap for what it offers

Haval H6 has earned a name of safe car in China.

Haval is becoming a popular brand in Chile. The Jolion and H6 SUVs are getting good sales figures.

Thanks for publishing this..
I just test 2023 h6 few time ago, very nice drive and very high tech indeed, the only down side for me was the environment and road noise insulation, not that good.

You should let us Know what rating it got. How good did it go, Good or Bad.

What about the small area head on crash test?

[MrComradeKaizer]

Except the side pole test. I'm not an expert, but the cabin seemed well protected.

Just look at the seatbelt pre-tension before the impact. Marvelous tech!

i cant believe i am saying it but haval beats many japanese, american and korean suvs. what a bang for buck.

En estados unidos son muy orgullosos y nacionalistas con sus autos paneros, aprecian mas sus productos no saben que esa mole es de calidad .

Many features comparable to the most luxurious European and American cars at a low price make Chinese cars quickly conquer the markets. Nowadays, the streets of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and other Arab countries are crowded with Chinese cars. After a few years, I expect that we will find the Chinese cars companies in the lead. Remember this bro.

Apparently GWM/Haval is not available in the US or Europe. I wonder how it would sell if they did manage to get in these markets. It's a cheap option in Africa, Oceania and Latin American countries and sales are blowing up.

ถ้าเป็นรถญี่ปุ่นในประเทศไทย ชนขนาดนี้ เละครับรถบางเหมือนกระดาษเลย

[Lovesausage]

Fun fact people in China can’t pronounce Harvard university and haval was created becoz that’s how they literally enunciate Harvard in China. So if someone asks what school you want to go to just say, “Haaaaval”
