Verdict

At RM139,800, the Haval H6 undercuts the RM156,800 Jetour T2 by RM17,000 and cuts annual road tax from RM439 to RM120. Its hybrid system produces 243 PS and 530 Nm, reaches 100 km/h in 7.7 seconds, and adds a head-up display and powered boot. The T2 counters with all-wheel drive, a 241 hp/375 Nm 2.0-litre turbo engine, 20 mm more boot space and a substantially larger body.
