Blending refined urban comfort with confident all-terrain capability, the HAVAL V7 delivers on its launch promise: A Venture for Every Lifestyle.
Engineered for daily city driving yet capable beyond paved roads, the HAVAL V7 is built for drivers who want versatility without compromise, whether navigating weekday commutes, weekend escapes, or light off-road adventures.
Designed for the City. Ready for More.
With a bold yet contemporary SUV stance, the HAVAL V7 measures 4,800 mm in length, 1,950 mm in width and 1,843 mm in height, giving it a strong road presence while maintaining everyday drivability. Under the hood, the V7 is powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine paired with a 9-speed Dual-Clutch Transmission (9DCT), delivering 228 HP and 380 Nm of torque.
Customers can choose between 2WD and intelligent 4WD configurations, supported by HAVAL’s advanced All-Terrain Control System. Driving modes are tailored for the Middle East conditions and include Standard, Sport, Economy, Snow and AUTO in 2WD, while 4WD models add Mud, Sand and Grass/Bumpy Road modes, ensuring confidence across varied terrains.
Comfort That Elevates Every Journey
Inside, the HAVAL V7 focuses on refined comfort and smart practicality. The cabin features a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 15.6-inch central touchscreen, creating an intuitive, driver-focused cockpit. Premium-textured seats, soft-touch surfaces and an available Infinity panoramic sunroof enhance the sense of space and luxury.
Thoughtful details such as ventilated front seats, a refrigerated centre armrest storage box, privacy shades, and up to 43 cleverly designed storage spaces ensure everyday convenience for families and professionals alike. Wireless connectivity is seamless, supported by 50W inductive fast wireless charging and a premium audio system of up to 10 speakers, including a subwoofer in higher specifications.
Smart Technology, Seamless Convenience
The HAVAL V7 integrates advanced technology to simplify daily driving. Features include voice recognition, 360-degree panoramic camera with transparent chassis view, automatic parking assistance, and an available 9-inch Windshield Head-Up Display (W-HUD).
Higher-spec variants introduce added convenience such as adaptive cruise control, driver seat memory with welcome function, auto-dimming rear-view mirror, and exterior mirror memory with reverse tilt, reinforcing the V7’s premium positioning.
Confidence Comes Standard
Safety remains a core pillar of the HAVAL V7. Built on a reinforced body structure using ultra-strong 2000 MPa steel in key areas, the V7 has achieved a 2026 A/Euro-NCAP Five-Star Safety Rating. A comprehensive suite of active safety systems includes Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), advanced driver assistance features and intelligent stability systems designed for both urban and off-road environments.
For enhanced traction, 4WD variants are equipped with an electronically controlled rear axle differential lock, ensuring added confidence when venturing beyond the city.
