GWM has officially expanded its medium SUV line-up with the arrival of the all-new Haval H7, offering Australian buyers a rugged, hybrid-powered five-seat SUV that blends everyday practicality with standout design.
Sitting between the Haval H6 and the adventure-ready Tank 300, the H7 is available exclusively in Vanta grade and priced from $46,990 drive-away.
Confident SUV Design
The H7 takes its foundations from the Haval H6 but carves out its own distinct personality with squared-off proportions, upright stance, and bold round LED headlights. The Vanta treatment brings 19-inch machined alloy wheels and blacked-out finishes across the grille, badging, mirrors, window trims, roof rails, and taillights – giving it a commanding, all-black aesthetic.
Hybrid Efficiency with Everyday Usability
Under the bonnet, the H7 features GWM’s 1.5-litre turbocharged hybrid engine paired with a dedicated hybrid transmission, delivering a combined 179kW and 530Nm. The system drives the front wheels, balancing efficiency and performance with a claimed fuel consumption of 5.7L/100km.
This hybrid setup ensures smooth transitions between petrol and electric power, making it equally at home in city commutes, family road trips, and weekend escapes.
Adventure-Ready Interior
Inside, the H7 offers a spacious five-seat layout with generous shoulder and headroom, flexible storage solutions, and a removable boot floor that doubles as a picnic table. Premium touches include leather-accented seats, heated and ventilated front seats, ambient lighting, and a panoramic sunroof.
A 14.6-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, an 8-speaker audio system, head-up display, and multiple USB and wireless charging points ensure connectivity and convenience on the go.

- Seven airbags
