Haval has introduced the Raptor SUV at the China Auto Show in Chengdu and has begun taking orders, a move reported by the automatic home portal. The model’s price will depend on the chosen configuration, starting around 160,000 yuan and reaching up to 190,000 yuan, which translates to roughly 2.1 to 2.5 million rubles. In terms of dimensions, the Raptor measures 4680 mm in length with a wheelbase of 2738 mm. Its approach and departure angles stand at 24 and 30 degrees, respectively, while the ground clearance ranges between 170 and 200 mm. The vehicle is capable of traversing passages up to 560 mm deep, making it suitable for rougher terrains seen in adventure-focused trips across North America as well.

Under the hood, the Haval Raptor pairs a hybrid powertrain built around a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine producing 167 horsepower with an all-wheel-drive system. Depending on the configuration, the combined output reaches either 378 or 383 horsepower. Battery capacity varies from 19.1 kWh to 27.5 kWh, offering a more substantial electric range in higher configurations. Models equipped with the larger battery can travel up to about 145 kilometers on electric power alone, which is particularly beneficial for city commutes or weekend getaways within Canada and the United States. The cabin is equipped with two sizable displays and a panoramic sunroof, while many controls are accessed via physical buttons, balancing modern tech with tangible tactile feedback.
