BAODING, China, March 29, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

On March 17, ANCAP, Australasia's Independent Voice on Vehicle Safety,

announced that HAVAL H6 has been awarded a 5 star safety rating, which

represents that the safety strength of GWM's HAVAL brand has been

internationally recognized again.

The rating standard of ANCAP becomes stricter after upgrading. After the

3rd-generation innovation, HAVAL H6 has achieved excellent results in four

aspects of this test including adult occupant protection, child occupant

protection, safety assist and vulnerable road user protection, with scores of

90%, 88%, 81% and 73%, respectively.

ANCAP Chief Executive Officer, Carla Hoorweg said, "This is GWM's first new

HAVAL SUV model to the Australasian market for a number of years. Delivering a

5 star vehicle to the market, against ANCAP's latest 2022 protocols,

demonstrates the brand has kept pace with the latest ANCAP safety standards and

consumer safety expectations."

According to the test results, HAVAL H6 has reached a "Good" grade in adult

occupant protection. It has got a full score in such vehicle testing as side

impact, oblique pole, whiplash protection, and rescue & extrication. In

addition, to adopt a 70%-plus high-strength steel vehicle frame, the vehicle is

also equipped with an omnidirectional airbag that can effectively protect front

and rear passengers from injury during a crash.

In terms of child occupant protection, this car has shown excellent safety

performance in testing. It has received a full score in dynamic test (side) due

to the lower ISOFix anchorages and top tether anchorages installed in the rear

seat, which can further strengthen the connection between the child seat and

the vehicle body, thus providing better safety protection for children.

HAVAL H6 also stands out in the test of safety assist. The AEB (Car-to-Car)

system enables the vehicle to avoid and mitigate crashes. To the greatest

extent for protecting drivers safety, the AEB junction Assist enables the

vehicle to achieve autonomous brake to avoid collision with oncoming vehicles.

Finally, the car performed well in the testing of vulnerable road user

protection. The bumper is designed with proper energy-absorbing space, which

reduces the impact force to a certain extent and helps people avoid serious

hurt to pedestrians' legs as far as possible. Also, the AEB system can promptly

detect pedestrians and cyclists passing by and make a timely reaction.

"This is an impressive achievement by GWM HAVAL," said Carla Hoorweg. The great

result of the ANCAP also proves the safety strength of the HAVAL brand. Now,

several models of this brand have brought a safer driving experience to

customers in global markets such as Australia, New Zealand, Chile and Egypt.

Based on such excellent performance of HAVAL H6 in the ANCAP test, HAVAL will

continue to take safety as its priority, and focus on improving the safety

performance of the vehicle, to create more high-quality products for global

users.
