Great Wall Motor showcased the Haval H6 facelift at the Bangkok Motor Show, marking the first official unveiling of its right-hand drive version. This indicates that GWM will continue to offer the Haval H6 for right-hand drive markets. The Haval H6 facelift is produced at Great Wall's assembly plant in Rayong, Thailand, and is available with a HEV powertrain, priced between 929,000 and 1,149,000 THB. The powertrain remains unchanged, featuring a 1.5L turbocharged gasoline engine with an electric motor, delivering a combined output of 243PS and 530Nm of torque, paired with a DHT transmission and a 27.4kWh battery (down from 34kWh NMC to LFP). The pure-electric range has been reduced from 201km to 150km, and the fast-charging power from 48kW to 41kW. The exterior features redesigned headlights, grille, and front bumper, with a blackened exhaust pipe at the rear. The interior adopts an all-black theme, with a redesigned center console, a traditional gear shift replacing the rotary dial, a two-spoke steering wheel, and an upgraded 14.6-inch touchscreen with Coffee OS 3.0. Due to the recent launch of the pre-facelift Haval H6 in Malaysia (assembled in Malacca), it is unlikely that the facelift model will be introduced in the short term.
