GWM Haval H6 HEV enters ASEAN Records – 1,242 km on one tank; most verified owners exceeding 1,000 km

The GWM Haval H6 HEV has been officially listed in the ASEAN Records for achieving the longest range on a single tank of fuel, while also having the most verified owners exceed 1,000 km, all under real-world driving conditions.

For the first part of the record, a Haval H6 HEV managed to cover a verified distance of 1,242 km on a single tank of fuel as part of a nationwide fuel endurance challenge. This was achieved by one of 38 Havel H6 HEV owners that took part in a nationwide fuel endurance challenge, with all participants managing over 1,000 km – the second part. According to GWM Malaysia, this marks the first time a hybrid SUV in ASEAN has accomplished such a feat through genuine, everyday usage.

“This isn’t just a technical breakthrough, it’s a real-world endorsement of how far the HAVAL H6 HEV can take Malaysians. It reflects the essence of our new direction: to elevate the everyday drive through proven innovation,” said Cui Anqi, managing director of GWM Malaysia. To celebrate the occasion, the Haval H6 HEV has been given a new tagline: Elevate Your Everyday.

The H6 HEV was launched in Malaysia in October 2024 and is priced at RM139,800 on-the-road without insurance. Locally assembled (CKD) here, the hybrid SUV features a 61-litre fuel tank, a GW4B15D 1.5 litre turbocharged inline-four petrol engine, an electric motor and a two-speed Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT), with the total system output being 243 PS and 530 Nm of torque.

    While 1,000km per full tank was achievable by full hybrid cars like Toyota Prius ZVW30 including cify stop-start driving, cars like BMW 320d E90, 530d F10 and Jaguar XF 2.0 diesel of over 10 years ago could do over 1,000 km on highway drives (100kmh at approx 1,400rpm).

    We are now in 2025. 1,000km per full tank is nothing new. Try 2,000km.

    About 17km/L? Good but not too impressive. Average hybrid fuel consumption.

    Nothing to brag about here as it’s merely averaging at 20.36km/l which is average for any Toyota or Honda hybrid equivalent. You can stuff in 61L fuel tank or even 100L if manufacturers deem fit, there’s no regulation as to how large a fuel tank size should be for a passenger car.
    Anyways, this car takes about RM125 for full tank (dry) which is something to consider with the subsidy removed and also this car depreciates faster than Tesla and BYD EVs. I’m hearing average fill up is around RM115 or so, unless you really push till every drop of fuel.
