This is the GWM Haval Jolion Vs Honda HR-V comparison for 2024. All SUVs have grown in size over the last decade because that is what most buyers seemingly want to buy. Both are classified as small SUVs but in reality they fit 4 comfortably with room for luggage. In fact they would be perfect for the average family the ages of 1.7 children, after averaging the numbers on various websites. This is a comparison of the cheapest small SUV compared to one of the most expensive small SUVs on sale at the moment – for the average family. So how do they compare and which one is better buy?
GWM Haval Jolion Vs Honda HR-V exterior comparison: The new HRV does not have the latest styling trends that’s for sure. It still reminds us of the Mitsubishi Lancer lift back from the 2010’s except higher off the ground. Honda designs are literally flatlining in the last few years. In comparison The Jolion can’t hide it’s awkward lines but people don’t buy this SUV for it.
GWM Haval Jolion Vs Honda HR-V interior comparison: The HRV interior is very good but then it should be for the asking price in 2024. It’s has a surprisingly large interior for passengers and nice place to be in looking and feeling upmarket. In comparison the Jolion is a nice place to be in as well but is it relative and on the surface only. Hence it generally looks good even the hard plastics however it doesn’t feel as premium as the HRV.
GWM Haval Jolion Vs Honda HR-V engine and technology comparison: As we write this review the petrol only variant of the HR-V is being discontinued for the simple reasons that is expensive, not economical enough or fast enough compared to its competition. The hybrid version fixes everything wrong with the HR-V except for the expensive part. In comparison the Jolion has a good set of engines including a Hybrid. The long term durability of all the options are still unknown but there are few options in this price range. There is nothing unusual about either car.
The conclusion and winner of the GWM Haval Jolion Vs Honda HR-V comparison is neither. Ultimately the Jolion is one of the cheapest but well equipped smallish SUV on sale. If price is your only consideration aka cheapest price ignoring longer term resale and durability then it is worth a look. However it odd looks and variable pricing make it a risky purchase, The HR-V real problem is that it is expensive for what you get we believe a minimum of $5000 is truly needed to be competitive.
