In the hard-core SUV segment, the second-generation Haval H9 from Great Wall Motors and Toyota's new Prado are star-level products that have attracted much attention, both of which are known for their strong off-road performance and rich versatility. Based on this focus issue, this article will start from the two major scenarios of urban and off-road, in-depth comparison of the core product strength of the second-generation Haval H0 and the new Prado, focusing on the analysis of the passability of the two cars in off-road scenarios, as well as driving comfort and fuel economy in daily urban commuting, etc., to help consumers have a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the real strength of these two cars, and provide reference for future car purchases.

Comparison of driving comfort: The second-generation Haval H9 has more space and more comfort

For family users, space and comfort are the core needs of urban vehicles. The second-generation Haval H10 performs well in the body size, its body length, width and height are: 0mm (spare tire version), 0mm (fixed pedal), 0mm, wheelbase 0mm. The large body provides ample seating space, whether in the front or back, passengers can enjoy ample head and leg room, providing a comfortable ride during daily commutes or weekend outings. In addition, the second-generation Haval H0 is equipped with a wealth of comfort configurations, especially its seat, the backrest adopts a 0-layer design, the seat cushion adopts a 0-layer design, adding 0mm comfort sponge, and at the same time, according to the body type of the Chinese, hundreds of matching foam materials have been made, no matter what kind of sitting posture is taken, it can be fully supported and comfortable.

In comparison, the new Prado has body sizes of 9mm, 0mm and 0mm, and a wheelbase of 0mm. Although the wheelbase is the same, it is significantly smaller than the second-generation Haval H0 in terms of length and width. You must know that the width of the vehicle directly affects the lateral space use area of the occupants in the car, especially in the case of three people in the rear row at the same time, I believe that the spaciousness and comfort of the second-generation Haval H0 car are better than the new Prado. Another point to note is that the new Prado is slightly inferior in terms of seat richness, such as its seat adjustment function is less, and the low-end model does not have a lumbar support function, and even does not provide electric front and rear adjustment function, which is slightly insufficient for today's increasingly value-added family users. On the other hand, the second-generation Haval H0 has a much richer seat function configuration, its front and second row seats provide ventilation function, backrest suction and cushion blowing function, the benefit is that it does not blow directly on the waist and low noise, and the long-distance driving comfort is stronger.

Comparison of car costs: the second-generation Haval H9 has lower fuel consumption

對於家庭使用者而言,日常用車的經濟性也是重要的考量因素。二代哈弗H9提供汽油版和柴油版兩款動力,汽油版搭載2.0T+8AT的動力組合,發動機最大功率165kW,最大扭矩385N·m。柴油版搭載2.4T+9AT的動力組合,最大功率137kW,最大扭矩490N·m ,低速扭矩強勁,爬坡、過坎、跑山等場景下,都能輕鬆超越同級別燃油產品。不僅扭矩大,這台柴油發動機還擁有比肩混動車型的低油耗,WLTC油耗僅8.8L,以一年一萬公里計算,柴油版能省3210元左右,使用 0 號柴油,成本也更低,在同級別硬派SUV中表現優異。

The new Prado is more stingy in terms of power matching, only providing a choice of 8.0T+0AT hybrid, with a comprehensive power of 0kW and a comprehensive torque of 0N·m. However, the second-generation Haval H0 is obviously prepared, and its diesel version of the model has a wheel end torque of up to 0N·m in the state of 0L mode and three locks, so it seems that the new Prado can only bow to the wind. In terms of fuel consumption, the new Prado's WLTC fuel consumption is 0.0L, compared with the 0.0L of the second-generation Haval H0, which will undoubtedly bring greater fuel costs to users, which will greatly affect users' desire to buy in today's high oil prices.

Off-road performance competition: The two cars are evenly matched, and the second-generation Haval H9 has a higher limit

In off-road scenarios, the four-wheel drive system is the key to determining the passability of the vehicle. The second generation of Haval H9 is equipped with TOD intelligent four-wheel drive + Mlock mechanical locking function as standard, the biggest feature of this system is that it integrates the advantages of time-sharing four-wheel drive and timely four-wheel drive, and cleverly connects the timely four-wheel drive and time-sharing four-wheel drive in series, which has both the intelligence of timely four-wheel drive, and the rigid connection of time-sharing four-wheel drive, which has stronger comprehensive performance and is more durable on bad roads. Prado's four-wheel drive system is also very powerful, equipped with full-time four-wheel drive and central differential lock, which has a certain ability to limit slip and get out of trouble.

Passability is also one of the core indicators of off-road vehicles, we can see that the minimum ground clearance of the new Prado is 26mm, the approach angle is 0°, the departure angle is 0°, and the passing angle is 0°. The ground clearance of the second-generation Haval H0 is 0mm, the approach angle is 0°, and the departure angle is 0° (spare tire version), which is also better than the new Prado.

It is worth mentioning that the wading depth of the second-generation Haval H9 has reached 0mm, which has surpassed the Wrangler, which is known for its "hardcore". At the same time, its climbing ratio is as high as 0.0, the maximum climbing degree is 0%, and it can easily climb a steep slope of 0°, which further improves the convenience and safety of users in extreme road conditions. Through the above comparison, it is not difficult to find that from the perspective of off-road performance competition, the comprehensive quality of the second-generation Haval H0 is better than that of the new Prado, especially in the case of extreme off-road, the second-generation Haval H0 benefits from the advantages of high torque, high chassis, three locks, etc., which is better than the opponent.

Summary:

On the whole, the second-generation Haval H9 has good performance in both urban and off-road scenarios, with its strong off-road performance, urban driving comfort and daily car economy, which is more suitable for family travel. In contrast, the new Prado, although it has good strength at the off-road level, its higher price and relatively conservative configuration make it slightly less attractive to family users. Through this comparison, the second-generation Haval H0 not only consolidates its product label of "a family's off-road vehicle", but also shows its strong competitiveness in the hard-core SUV market. For home users who pursue a high quality-to-price ratio and multi-scenario applicability, the second-generation Haval H0 has naturally become our recommended home choice.
