The Haval Jolion is a compact crossover SUV produced by Great Wall Motor under the Haval marque since 2021. The Haval Jolion was first shown at the 2020 Beijing Auto Show in October as a successor of the H2.[4] It was sold in China for a brief year, and since then the Jolion is an export-only model.
Jolion is an anglicised from its Chinese market name "Chulian", meaning "first love".[5][6]
Overview
The interior of the Jolion features a 12.3-inch central touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and satellite navigation enabled. Additionally, a 7.0-inch instrument display and head-up display is also equipped. Other features include a six-speaker sound system, synthetic leather upholstery, a six-way electric driver's seat with ventilation, dual-zone climate control, PM2.5 air filter, wireless phone charging, and a choice of four interior colours.[7] The Haval Jolion is based on the L.E.M.O.N. platform which also underpins the Haval Big Dog.
Sales of the Jolion in China ended in 2021.[8] It continues to be available in export markets.
Powertrain
The Haval Jolion is powered by a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine producing 105 kW and 210 Nm of torque since the 2024 facelift.[9] It previously produced 110 kW and 220 Nm of torque[10] The Jolion also has a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and front-wheel drive.[11][12]
Jolion Hybrid
The Jolion Hybrid debuted in Thailand in November 2021. The front end design of the Haval Jolion Hybrid is different from the regular model, with changes made to the headlights, turn signals, front bumper, front grille and rear bumper.[13] It is powered by a 1.5-litre GW4G15H engine and electric motor which has combined output of 140 kW and 375 Nm paired to a DHT (Dedicated Hybrid Transmission).[14]
Jolion Pro
In April 2024, GWM South Africa introduced the Haval Jolion Pro, which is the export version of the Haval Chitu. It slots in above the Jolion, and will replace the mid-spec Premium and Luxury Jolion trim levels.[15] In June 2024, this model was introduced in Australia as a hybrid model, replacing the previous Jolion HEV. It retains the Jolion Pro badging, but GWM Australia will market it simply as the Jolion HEV to reduce confusion.[16] Instead of using the dashboard design from the Chitu, the Jolion Pro shares the same dashboard with the Jolion.[15] For the 2025 model year, GWM Australia introduced the petrol version of the Jolion Pro, marketed as the Jolion Ultra.[17]
