For 2022 Haval isn’t making any specification changes to its recently introduced Jolion, though it has increased the price slightly.
All variants now have drive-away prices $1000 higher than before, with the range now opening at $26,490 drive-away.
The rest of the local GWM and Haval ranges have also seen similar price increases.
“Prices went up as of October 1st due to a number of increased costs through the supply chain,” said a spokesperson for GWM Haval Australia.
“There are no equipment or spec changes but we are confident that our range still offers excellent value whether it be a Haval SUV or the GWM Ute.”
Introduced earlier in 2021, the small Jolion crossover is a replacement for the old H2.
Though it hasn’t been on sale for the whole year so far, the Jolion has still logged 2330 sales to the end of September 2021. That puts it ahead of the Skoda Kamiq (1783) and has it staring down the Suzuki Vitara (2882).
In the month of September alone, it outsold rivals like the Kia Seltos, Toyota C-HR and Volkswagen T-Roc.
Sharp drive-away pricing and a long feature list have helped fuel the Jolion’s growth – it’s already bested the old H2’s entire 2020 sales tally – but GWM Haval Australia has also had far fewer supply issues than rival firms.

Safety
The Haval Jolion hasn’t been crash tested by ANCAP or Euro NCAP yet. Local ANCAP safety testing has been affected by COVID-19 lockdowns and market-related delays, and we don’t yet know when the Jolion will be tested.

- Autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection
