GWM is offering sharper drive-away pricing across its Haval H6 mid-sized SUV range.

The Chinese brand is offering savings of between $1000 and $2000 across the range until June 30, 2024.

Petrol-powered models see the greatest saving, with the Lux Hybrid’s price reduced by $1500 and the flagship Ultra Hybrid’s cut by $1000.

Specifications remain unchanged for the Haval H6, of which a next-generation model is expected either late in 2024 or early in 2025. That’s despite the current model having only launched in Australia in 2021.

In the first quarter of 2024, GWM sold 2203 Haval H6s and 888 of its H6 GT coupe SUV sibling in Australia, up 6.9 per cent and 2.0 per cent on the same period in 2023.

Even excluding the related Haval H6 GT, the Haval H6 managed to outsell the Honda CR-V (1920 sales) and Volkswagen Tiguan (1215 sales), though it’s still behind the likes of the Subaru Forester (3583 sales) and Hyundai Tucson (4685) as well as even more popular Japanese and Korean models.
