Household compact car Haval xy

The 2023 Haval xy Gasoline Car continues the power configuration of the previous generation model, equipped with a 1.5T engine, a 2.0T engine, and a 1.5T hybrid system. According to the current market demand, small displacement turbocharged engines are the mainstream power, so the model we tested is a fuel version equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine.

The comprehensive power of this 1.5T engine is 184Ps, which is quite outstanding among 150000 class domestic SUVs. The only thing I don't like about it is that it is matched with a 7-gear wet Dual-clutch transmission. During the test drive, the response speed of this gearbox was somewhat slow, which could lead to power delays.

Fortunately, the torque output range is relatively broad, and the power comes relatively early. After normal starting, the power output is relatively linear, and the smoothness of shifting is still within an acceptable range. When encountering traffic jams, the vehicle will stop and move, and the gearbox will show a relatively sluggish side, which has an impact on the overall driving quality.

The chassis suspension of the new Sedan Car is a common combination on household SUVs. The front MacPherson independent suspension and the rear multi link independent suspension, as well as the adjustment of the shock absorbers and springs, are relatively soft. When passing through bumpy roads, all small bumps can be filtered out, ensuring the comfort of the drivers and passengers inside the car. But when turning, the chassis does not provide enough support to the body, and a noticeable roll can be felt.

Overall, as a family transportation vehicle, the dynamic performance of the Haval xy SUV Car is basically satisfactory. If there is any room for improvement, it is that the toughness of the chassis can be increased, and the NVH design inside the car can also be further improved. Especially when the vehicle speed reaches over 100 kilometers per hour, the engine noise inside the car will be very obvious, and a little cheerful music needs to be played to suppress it.

After discussing the dynamic performance of the vehicle, let's review its static performance. The appearance of the Haval xy is quite impressive, breaking my stereotype of Haval cars. The exterior design of the new car appears quite unique among the Haval family, but it does not make people feel abrupt.

The spacious front grille is adorned with fine silver chrome elements, and the headlight clusters located on both sides of the front of the car are also adorned with horizontal decorative strips, creating an integrated effect. Headlights support automatic switching of high and low beam lights. Even if you forget to switch Low beam lights, the system can help us switch, so you don't have to be in a hurry to switch lights.

There is a long and thin light strip on the edge of the front cover, which is composed of 60 LED light beads. It integrates Daytime running lamp, side lights and turn signals, and has a good dynamic effect when lit.
