Verdict
These cars split the job cleanly. The Haval H6 is the family-hauler choice, with a 560-litre boot, rear air-con vents and a 2,738 mm wheelbase; its 4,683 mm length also makes it 448 mm longer than the Good Cat. The Ora Good Cat counters with 400 km of EV range from its 57.7 kWh battery, 60 kW DC charging and 3.3 kW V2L. Its 250-litre boot is far less useful for a full family’s luggage, but the smaller 4,235 mm hatchback is the easier city proposition.
Pick the GWM Haval H6 if you need the 560-litre boot, rear air-con vents and longer 7-year/200,000-km vehicle warranty for regular family use.
Pick the GWM Ora Good Cat if you want a smaller electric hatchback with 400 km range, 60 kW DC charging and V2L.
