GWM has officially unveiled its new flagship SUV in China, and it’s a big one. Previously known by the codename HX when early images surfaced back in April, the vehicle now carries its production name: the Haval H10.
Where It Sits in the Lineup
The H10 sits above the existing Haval H9 in GWM’s lineup and marks the second model built on the company’s new modular GWM One platform, following the Wey V9X. Unlike the H9, which uses a ute-style ladder frame, the H10 is built on a car-like unibody structure.
Bigger Than a LandCruiser
Size is where this SUV really makes a statement. The five-seat version stretches 5138mm long, 1970mm wide and 2050mm tall, riding on a 3000mm wheelbase. For context, that makes it longer than a Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series. A six-seat variant pushes things even further, reaching 5299mm in length.
5-seat: 5138mm L · 1970mm W · 2050mm H · 3000mm wheelbase longer than a Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series. 6-seat: 5299mm L.
Interior and Tech
Inside, the H10 follows GWM’s current design language with a large central touchscreen running the brand’s Coffee OS 3 software, a floating digital instrument cluster, and a simplified steering wheel with fewer physical buttons. One notable omission is the secondary passenger touchscreen found in the more luxury-focused Wey models, that feature appears to stay exclusive to the Wey badge for now.
Powertrain: Hi4 PHEV Only at Launch
Under the bonnet, the H10 will launch exclusively with GWM’s Hi4 all-wheel-drive plug-in hybrid system, paired with either a 1.5-litre or 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine. A 42.8kWh battery pack is claimed to deliver up to 180km of electric-only rangeunder China’s CLTC testing standard, a figure that will likely shrink under stricter international testing.
Will It Come to Australia?
Whether the H10 makes its way to Australia remains an open question. GWM’s local flagship duties currently sit with the Tank 500, and a more powerful Tank 700, potentially with a V8, is expected to join the range. The brand’s luxury Wey sub-brand is also set to launch in Australia later this year, starting with the G9 plug-in hybrid people mover.
