On March 17, ANCAP, Australasia's Independent Voice on Vehicle Safety, 
announced that HAVAL H6 has been awarded a 5 star safety rating, which 
represents that the safety strength of GWM's HAVAL brand has been 
internationally recognized again.

The rating standard of ANCAP becomes stricter after upgrading. After the 
3rd-generation innovation, HAVAL H6 has achieved excellent results in four 
aspects of this test including adult occupant protection, child occupant 
protection, safety assist and vulnerable road user protection, with scores of 
90%, 88%, 81% and 73%, respectively.

ANCAP Chief Executive Officer, Carla Hoorweg said, "This is GWM's first new 
HAVAL SUV model to the Australasian market for a number of years. Delivering a 
5 star vehicle to the market, against ANCAP's latest 2022 protocols, 
demonstrates the brand has kept pace with the latest ANCAP safety standards and 
consumer safety expectations."

According to the test results, HAVAL H6 has reached a "Good" grade in adult 
occupant protection. It has got a full score in such vehicle testing as side 
impact, oblique pole, whiplash protection, and rescue & extrication. In 
addition, to adopt a 70%-plus high-strength steel vehicle frame, the vehicle is 
also equipped with an omnidirectional airbag that can effectively protect front 
and rear passengers from injury during a crash.

In terms of child occupant protection, this car has shown excellent safety 
performance in testing. It has received a full score in dynamic test (side) due 
to the lower ISOFix anchorages and top tether anchorages installed in the rear 
seat, which can further strengthen the connection between the child seat and 
the vehicle body, thus providing better safety protection for children.

HAVAL H6 also stands out in the test of safety assist. The AEB (Car-to-Car) 
system enables the vehicle to avoid and mitigate crashes. To the greatest 
extent for protecting drivers safety, the AEB junction Assist enables the 
vehicle to achieve autonomous brake to avoid collision with oncoming vehicles.

Finally, the car performed well in the testing of vulnerable road user 
protection. The bumper is designed with proper energy-absorbing space, which 
reduces the impact force to a certain extent and helps people avoid serious 
hurt to pedestrians' legs as far as possible. Also, the AEB system can promptly 
detect pedestrians and cyclists passing by and make a timely reaction.

"This is an impressive achievement by GWM HAVAL," said Carla Hoorweg. The great 
result of the ANCAP also proves the safety strength of the HAVAL brand. Now, 
several models of this brand have brought a safer driving experience to 
customers in global markets such as Australia, New Zealand, Chile and Egypt.
Based on such excellent performance of HAVAL H6 in the ANCAP test, HAVAL will 
continue to take safety as its priority, and focus on improving the safety 
performance of the vehicle, to create more high-quality products for global 
users.
