The Haval F7 is a compact sport utility vehicle produced by Great Wall Motor under the Haval brand since 2018.
The cross-coupe version called F7x differs only externally: the roof is lowered by 350 mm and tilted at the back, and the rear overhang is slightly shortened.[1][2]
History
[edit]The vehicle debuted on 29 August 2018 at the Moscow International Automobile Salon. In November 2018, sales began in China. The Russian market is expected to follow in the spring of 2019.[3] The vehicle is positioned above the Haval F5 and is based on the WEY VV6.[4] Haval provided a preview of the upcoming SUV at Auto Shanghai in April 2017 with the concept car Haval HB-03.[5]
Power of the F7 comes from a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine developing 147 kW (197 hp; 200 PS) and 345 N⋅m (254 lb⋅ft; 35 kg⋅m). A 1.5-litre inline-4 engine is also offered. Power is sent to the front wheels through a seven-speed DCT with wet clutches developed by Great Wall Motor.[6] In August 2024, the Tula plant stopped producing the first generation F7 and F7x crossovers, production of Haval Shenshou as a second generation model has begun.[7]
Haval F7x
[edit]A fastback version of the Haval F7 called the Haval F7x debuted during the 2019 Shanghai Auto Show. The Haval F7x shares the same structures as the Haval F7, and all parts before the B-pillars are the same.
