Since its launch in 2021 the HAVAL Jolion has been a runaway success for HAVAL in South Africa. It has consistently topped the sales charts in the competitive compact SUV segment and significantly contributed to HAVAL’s incremental growth of the overall market share in South Africa.
To date the range has consisted of five models, all utilising the same engine but with a choice of two gearboxes. HAVAL is now enhancing that offering with the addition of the sporty Jolion S featuring a new generation 1.5-litre engine.
The Jolion S not only features the same impressive level of standard specification, premium interior, connectivity and safety features as found in the Jolion Super Luxury, it also has several features unique to this model.
Ultra-high-performance engine and transmission
The Jolion S is fitted with a new generation 1.5-litre engine that features an upgraded turbocharger. The Performance Pack engine offers increases of 25kW and 60Nm above that of the standard Jolion, boasting an impressive 130kW between 5 500 and 6000rpm and 270Nm between 1 500 and 4 000rpm.
This is mated with a smooth shifting seven speed DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission) that drives the front wheels and has been specifically programmed to keep the engine in the sweet spot in terms of performance. A unique feature for this segment is the addition of Launch Control, allowing drivers to extract maximum performance from the drivetrain when accelerating from a standstill position.
The driver is also able to tailor the driving experience by means of four driving modes covering Standard, Eco, Sports and Snow as well as three Dynamic adjustable steering modes, namely Sport, Comfort and Light.
Unique sporty styling
Styling enhancements include a unique front grille that boasts a chrome honeycomb pattern.
The Jolion S has also been treated to several unique blacked out styling elements including the front and rear bumper garnish, side mirror caps, door beadings and roof rails, adding to the unique styling of this sporty model. The 18-inch sporty alloy wheels have been treated to a gloss black finish and are fitted with 225/55 R 18 tyres.
Premium interior
Interior specification is comprehensive and includes paddle shifters behind the eco-leather steering wheel, a seven-inch colour instrument cluster, wireless charging, a front 12V power outlet and a dashcam power outlet. Infotainment is catered for by a 12.3-inch multimedia touch display that incorporates Bluetooth and a six-speaker sound system.
