Gwm Jolion GT — 2.0T Hybrid LT

Flagship Jolion GT LT — head-up display, ventilated seats, 150 kW hybrid at R629,900, R65,000 below KIA Sportage GT-Line.

The Jolion GT Hybrid LT is the flagship of Haval's compact coupe-SUV range and represents the most equipment-rich variant in the Jolion lineup at R629,900. The 2.0L hybrid powertrain in LT trim produces 150 kW combined (versus 135 kW on LS) and 0-100 km/h drops to 7.9 seconds — quick by compact SUV standards and faster than most petrol rivals. Equipment over the GT LS includes head-up display, ventilated front seats with massage function on driver's side, ambient lighting with 64 colour options, 12-speaker Infinity premium audio, and the full digital instrument cluster with multiple display configurations. Genuine leather upholstery replaces synthetic leather. Heated rear seats join heated front seats. For SA buyers comparing this against the KIA Sportage 1.6T-GDi GT-Line DCT at R629,995, the Jolion GT LT delivers hybrid technology the KIA doesn't offer at the same price. Against the Hyundai Tucson 2.0 N-Line DCT at R695,000 it saves R65,000 with more aggressive styling and hybrid efficiency.
