<span class="bold"Johannesburg, South Africa, 18 June 2025 – GWM South Africa has officially launched the new HAVAL H6 SUV – sleeker, more powerful, and more intelligent than ever, the new H6 brings fresh energy to South Africa’s competitive SUV landscape.
With a refined design, upgraded technology and powerful drivetrain options – including Petrol Turbo and Dedicated Hybrid Technology (DHT) variants – the H6 is crafted to move families and individuals forward in comfort, confidence and style.
<span class="bold"GLOBAL EXPERTISE, REIMAGINED FOR SOUTH AFRICA
GWM’s presence in South Africa has grown steadily over the past 18 years. Now, with over 14.9 million vehicles sold globally and operations in more than 170 countries, the brand has proven its ability to innovate while staying true to real-world customer needs.
<span class="bold"“The new H6 is a bold step forward – not only for our local range but for the GWM brand as a whole,” says Floyd Ramabulana, Head of Marketing, GWM South Africa. “We’ve combined global craftsmanship with local insight to deliver an SUV that’s ideal for South African roads and lifestyles.”
<span class="bold"DESIGN THAT MAKES A STATEMENT
From its assertive front grille to the sleek LED Taillights and sculpted body lines, the new H6 looks as good parked in your driveway as it does in motion. New 19-inch Alloy Wheels and refined detailing throughout lend it a premium edge, while a luxurious cabin design and Leather-Accented Seating enhance every journey.
Striking features like the Signature Front Grille and upgraded LED Lighting not only enhance the H6’s visual identity but also provide functionality and flair.
<span class="bold"PERFORMANCE, YOUR WAY
The new H6 is available in two high-performing variants. The 2.0-litre Turbo Petrol Engine produces 170 kW and 380 Nm, delivering a finely balanced mix of responsiveness and control. Pairing with a 9-Speed Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) makes for sharp gear changes and driving comfort.
Meanwhile, the advanced hybrid version – the H6 HEV – takes power and efficiency to the next level. Powered by a 1.5-litre Turbo Engine and Electric Motor combination, it produces 179 kW and 530 Nm of torque, all while keeping fuel consumption low thanks to GWM’s intelligent DHT multi-mode system.
“The new H6 is for drivers who want more from their SUV – more control, more capability, and more confidence,” adds Ramabulana. “With selectable drive modes including Standard, Sport, Eco, Sand and Snow, and Intelligent 4WD Torque Distribution, the H6 adapts seamlessly to wherever you want to go.”
<span class="bold"SMART TECH, SMARTER DRIVING
From morning commutes to cross-country adventures, the new H6 keeps you connected and in control. A new 14.6-inch Multi-Point Touchscreen integrates seamlessly with Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, while the 10.25-inch Digital Instrument Cluster delivers key information clearly and intuitively.
Other standout features include Voice Command functionality, Head-Up Display for safe access to critical drive data, and Wireless Charging. The addition of Auto Parking Assist and a Heated Leather Steering Wheel bring even more convenience to everyday driving.
Drivers also benefit from a 6-Way Electric Adjustable Driver’s Seat, a Premium 9-Speaker Amor Audio System, and a Hands-Free Boot Lid – ensuring comfort, access and entertainment are never compromised.
<span class="bold" SAFETY ALWAYS COMES FIRST
True to GWM’s brand promise, the new H6 is engineered with safety at its core. A comprehensive suite of Intelligent Driver Assistance Systems offers confidence on every road. These include Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep Assist, Traffic Jam Assist, Traffic Sign Recognition and more.
The upgraded H6 SUV also features Automatic Emergency Braking, Blind Spot Detection, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and a class-leading 540° Panoramic Camera with Transparent Chassis View – giving you full visibility in every possible direction.
And to top all of that, the model’s 5-Star ANCAP safety rating reinforces the brand’s dedication to building vehicles that protect passengers and promote peace of mind.
<span class="bold"COMMITTED TO SUSTAINABLE INNOVATION
Hybrid SUVs like the new H6 HEV strike the perfect balance for drivers looking to boost efficiency without giving up performance or everyday practicality – a direction that resonates with South African drivers and reflects GWM’s commitment to sustainable innovation.
But the hybrid variant of the new H6 doesn’t just add fuel savings – it enhances the entire drive. The Dedicated Hybrid Technology system allows for ultra-quiet operation, smoother take-offs, and faster response in everyday conditions. Whether in traffic or on the open road, the HEV variant delivers a surprisingly refined and fun-to-drive experience.
The new H6 is available in a refined palette of exterior colours, including Hamilton White, Ayers Gray, Sun Black and Noble Gold – each chosen to complement the SUV’s modern silhouette.
