Great Wall Haval & Wingle Launched in Malaysia
It is a new automotive brand in town, and it is the Great Wall of China Brought by the franchise holder green Oranges Sdn Bhd, the brand, which is private property and his name famous world wonder of China, will be presented Malaysians via the Haval H5 two models SUV and the Wingle pickup truck.
Both are models of the most popular brand, are sold in Europe and Australia, among other markets What this means is that they have passed safety standards and higher emissions that these markets require.
Let's start with the Haval H5 It seats five midsize SUV that is much larger than the other SUVs in our Chinese market, Chery Tiggo With a length of 4649 mm and a wheelbase of 2700 mm, the Haval is 84 mm longer than a Honda CRV, and almost all of this advantage is 80 mm long in the wheelbase.
And 1.735 mm, the Haval also stands taller than the current crop of sport utility vehicles, except for the form box in the same Nissan X-Trail.
But we believe that the main point of Haval size isn t selling, but its diesel engine, as the only other SUV offering oil burners are Hyundai Santa Fe and Chevrolet Captiva, both a much higher price.
This 2 0 TCI engine is a modern common rail units IDRC system Bosch variable turbo VGT geometry, by Borg Warner and produces 148 hp and 310 Nm of torque from 1800 to 2800 rpm Coupled with automatic five-speed with Shiftronic, fuel consumption is estimated at 6 8L per 100km.
The Haval is a part-time 4WD machine, and changing patterns of rear 2WD driven AWD can be done on the fly at speeds up to 70 km h The standard kit list includes two airbags, ABS, EBD, traction control, leather seats with electric adjustment for the driver, rearview camera, cruise control, automatic air conditioning and a head unit of the color touch screen factory with Bluetooth compatibility DVD USB.
A unique feature not found elsewhere is a pressure monitoring system TPMS tire that is displayed in the rearview mirror.
The other model is the double cab Wingle pickup truck This is the latest Wingle, and has an intelligent face to the VW style looking up facial caricature that some might remember our tests roads there some time.
Isuzu Its roots are evident from the dashboard, but the Wingle has audio controls and adjustable headlight height, among other standard kit Dual Airbag, ABS and EBD are also listed, as are the leather seats.
The Wingle 2 is powered by a diesel engine common rail 5 liters with 107 hp and 300 Nm of torque, it produces from 1800 to 2400 rpm The turbo unit derived Mitsubishi is not the type of VGT, but No standard type auto option for Wingle; the engine comes exclusively with a five-speed manual transmission You can however choose to 4X2 or 4X4 variants Shift on the fly is available on it.
Both models Great Wall will be assembled on site with green Oranges own factory in Gurun, Kedah, but the first few units are in China, which is a common arrangement CEO Green Oranges Mohd Azli SM Nasimuddin said that CKD production will start in mid-August, and assured that the parts will not be a problem, the company has already RM2 million pieces preserved in Segambut, and 12 dealers across the country are 3S centers.
Hopefully, Malaysia will be the hub of production right training for these two great green wall models Oranges already enter the Cambodian market we write, and signed a memorandum of understanding today to work with a Cambodian GLC.
The Haval SUV is priced at RM120,000 OTR while the Wingle is RM59,888 price for the 4X2 and 4X4 RM69,888 for the SUV comes with 5 years warranty or 150k km, 5 years without maintenance and 5 self ASSIST years, while the Wingle comes with a warranty of 3 years.

We had the chance to test drive the models Great Wall there two weeks ago the road was Taman Tun Dr. Ismail Shah Alam Stadium TTDI.
I started with the Haval SUV TTDI in Shah Alam by NKVE and left with some brief impressions, even if an appropriate verdict should be harder.
Due to lack of time, I didn Wingle the sample.
Entering the Haval, I was pleasantly surprised by the number of available features and decent looks elements such as the instrument panel and LCD head unit touch screen.
The user interface for the HU was looking pretty slick and easy to use, and is far from the worst we have encountered it doesn t look that cheap either.
The inclusion of the kit as cruise control with buttons on the steering, the side seats and electric adjustable leather driver seats are more points, as sure as my expectations weren t very high since the Haval is designed and produced China makes the units we tested were CBU, but first impressions were positive.
As regards the materials and adjustment finish, Haval is not at say, a Honda CRV, although the overall integrity of the cab is good Plastics are hard variety, which is provided for an SUV budget, but the tactile response of parts could be better.
An example of this is the Cubby front of the gear lever, which closes with a slam The center console box also felt a bit shaky in operation Fit is generally one area where the gaps were wide was the top of the table center edge, but keep in mind that we are actively looking for it.
In general, touch and feel the quality in the cabin is correct I also did not notice any ergonomic or visibility issues.
In motion, the Haval competently led to a 4x4, although one should you expect a modern crossover driving experience ala CR-V or Tucson It feels more like a traditional fighter out with a direction to report very high light and brakes that require some effort on your foot it is a positive for me, even if a key further would be good.
The modern diesel engine, although the initial turbo lag is pretty obvious that Crossing and engine pulls cleanly and the couple is very convenient It is not much to report on the gearbox, which is a good thing.
On the highway, I noticed that the sound insulation of Haval is very good and tire noise was very minimal meantime, the engine would also set a buzz, and the suspension is not too sweet, so long-range cruise could be a force.

A little history, Great Wall Motor established in 1976 and initially only produced Trucks In 2010, he is the only Chinese automaker selling car in the general EU countries; With this price and specifications you get, I think is a good deal It depends on how you think Chinese automaker You can tell they are of low quality, easy to break, low safety rating, etc. But their cars able to sell in other countries and the Chinese automotive company acquired western technology and therefore learn to improve after some time, the car will be better and better the more important for the owner of the car maintenance, availability of spare parts and people able to repair the car for resale value, I have no comment for RM 60K - pickup trucks, I think is good in terms durability, I'm not sure, but I've seen quite a few car great wall in the Middle East too So I guess that would be okay as for the 120K drive, you have more choice but Haval but you will not get diesel or Dislike 1 as one answer.
