If cars are reinventing how South Africa drives, then the all-new HAVAL Jolion PRO is about to
revolutionize how you see your motoring future. The first new HAVAL model to launch under the
carmaker’s new One GWM philosophy, the New Jolion PRO takes all the solid, dependable and high
value traits that its vehicles are famous for and blends them into a stylish sporty new era.
At first glance, you’d likely believe that the New HAVAL Jolion PRO is a smart new German coupé SUV.
Yes, it is a smart new coupé SUV and made in China.
The new Jolion PRO comes in a trio of 1.5L turbocharged options in the base model Premium, stepping
up to the Super Luxury, and the Ultra Luxury. There is also a more powerful 1.5T S Ultra Luxury, while
the range is topped by the self-charging petrol-electric Ultra Luxury model.
A most contemporary hexagonal grille with 14 Chrome tipped vertical bar and a proud, yet discreet
HAVAL badge announces the New HAVAL Jolion PRO in grand style. It sits between a pair of smart
multi-angle height-adjustable follow-me-home daytime running headlamps, with LED illumination in the
Luxury models.
That’s accentuated by a purposeful and finely detailed lower grille and a vent on each side, all nestling
under the clamshell bonnet. Handsome side treatment features gentle hollows neatly offset by crisp
crease lines and a slick coupé-like glasshouse. Sporty alloy wheels are framed by subtle black-lined
wheelarches united by a dark skirt. All traits you’d expect from a sporty premium coupé SUV, of course.
The New HAVAL Jolion PRO is rounded off by smart and contemporary rear treatment dominated by
LED taillights linked by a bar across the width of the car. A cheeky black spoiler mounts off the end of the
roof rails atop the tailgate. A pair of marker lamps sit in the side jowls. And it’s all finished off by a trendy
venturi-look bib below, incorporating a low level lamp and styling tips on each side.
The Jolion PRO is available in four colours – Hamilton White, Sun Black, Light Ayers Grey and the Jolion
PRO exclusive HD Blue colours. All models get gloss black door handles, mirror covers, a shark fin
antenna, boneless wiper blades front and rear, and smart 17” face polished alloy wheels. Super Luxury
models step up to 18” wheels and add a panoramic sunroof and black roof rails, automatic headlamps,
and auto wipers too.
