AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)05/22 Report--

It is mentioned that the best-selling model in the domestic SUV market is the Harvard H6, which has occupied the top position in SUV sales for seven consecutive years since the model went on the road of best-selling. Nevertheless, with the increasingly fierce competition in the domestic car market, Harvard finally ushered in the replacement of the H6 model.

According to the patent drawings exposed by the media, the model is suspected to be a new generation of Harvard H6, and from the overall design, the new model basically continues the Concept H concept car displayed by Great Wall at the previous auto show. According to previous news, its new generation of Harvard H6, code-named B01, is expected to go into production in July and go on sale as soon as August.

In appearance, the new car maintains a Haversian front face and big mouth, but it is slightly smaller than the previous generation, while the headlights on both sides are still designed in a slender horizontal design, which has not changed much. The biggest change is the position of the former insurance steel, and the new car incorporates more sports kit-like decorations. As a whole, it only makes minor adjustments to maintain the style of the Harvard model, and does not adopt the more exaggerated styling of the concept car.

The side changes are relatively large, and basically continue the design of the Harvard Concept H concept car, the body lines slow down a little, but also make the area of the rear triangle window larger, the ride comfort of the rear passengers will be further improved, at the same time, it also makes the model appear more full and spacious. The rear part adopts the through-type taillight design and the hidden exhaust hole design, which makes the whole more modern.

In terms of power, although no specific information has been disclosed on the new car, it has been revealed that the new generation of Harvard H6 will be equipped with the third-generation 1.5T engine of Great Wall, which has been slightly adjusted for cylinder diameter and stroke. it is more powerful than the 1.5T currently used. The transmission is expected to still match the 7DCT gearbox.

In addition, it is learned that the latest B30 platform of Great Wall adopted by the new generation Harvard H6 will lengthen the length of the vehicle to 4.65 meters, so it will be longer than the current model, in order to increase the space of the model.

In fact, although the current Harvard H6 ranks first in sales every month, many car owners complain about its problems, such as abnormal gearbox noise, general power and fuel consumption higher than the same level, and so on. With the launch of new models, I wonder if these problems can be solved one by one to help Harvard regain more excellent reputation.

Although Great Wall is currently the first echelon of domestic brands, its sales mainly come from the Harvard brand, and the H6 series of models helps the Harvard brand gain a huge majority. According to April sales figures, the Harvard brand sold a total of 57000 new cars, of which the Harvard H6 reached 24000, followed by the Harvard M6, with a sales score of 15000 in April. So on the whole, although the sales volume of the Harvard brand is high, there are still few models that can really be supported.
