GWM Pakistan has officially confirmed the launch date of the much-anticipated Haval H6 Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) for August 12, 2025. The automaker has also opened pre-bookings at Rs. 2,400,000, while the ex-factory price has been set at Rs. 12,895,000.
This marks the entry of one of the most powerful and tech-advanced plug-in hybrid SUVs into the Pakistani market, as global trends continue shifting toward electrified mobility.
Haval H6 PHEV: Performance Meets Efficiency
The Haval H6 PHEV is powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged petrol engine, paired with an electric motor and an All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system. The vehicle is designed to offer the best of both worlds — the instant torque and quiet drive of electric vehicles, along with the extended range and familiarity of a combustion engine.
Key Performance Specs:
- Power Output: 360 horsepower (combined)
- Torque: 765 Newton-meters
- Electric-Only Range: Up to 90 kilometers
- 0–100 km/h Acceleration: Just 4.8 seconds
Such impressive specs place the H6 PHEV in direct competition with performance-oriented petrol SUVs, while delivering greater fuel efficiency and lower emissions.
Plug-In Hybrid Powertrain Explained
Unlike mild hybrids or conventional hybrids, Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) like the H6 can be charged from external electric sources (e.g., home chargers or public stations). This allows users to complete short urban commutes purely on electric power, making the H6 ideal for both daily driving and long-distance travel.
The system intelligently switches between electric and petrol modes or uses both simultaneously, depending on load, terrain, and speed, ensuring optimized performance without range anxiety.
Luxury and Technology Features (Expected)
Although detailed trim levels for Pakistan are yet to be disclosed, based on the H6’s global variants, we can expect:
- Panoramic sunroof
- Advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS)
- Large infotainment touchscreen with smartphone connectivity
- Digital instrument cluster
- Heated & ventilated seats
- 360-degree camera system
- Wireless charging and multiple drive modes
The H6 PHEV will likely bring premium features commonly found in luxury SUVs — helping justify its price tag while offering high-tech convenience.
GWM-Sazgar Partnership Expanding Hybrid Lineup
Sazgar Engineering Works Limited, which locally assembles GWM vehicles in Pakistan, has also announced plans to introduce two more plug-in hybrid models before March 31, 2026:
1. TANK-500 Hi4-T 4×4 2.0L Turbo AT PHEV
A rugged and upscale hybrid SUV with off-road capabilities designed to rival Toyota Land Cruiser Prado and other full-size SUVs.
2. CANNON ALPHA Hi4-T 4×4 2.0L Turbo AT PHEV
A hybrid pickup truck aimed at commercial and utility buyers, combining performance, torque, and fuel savings.
This indicates a clear shift in the company’s focus toward hybrid and electric mobility, in line with Pakistan’s automotive policy goals and environmental considerations.

Market Outlook: Growing Demand for Hybrids in Pakistan
With fuel prices continuously fluctuating and global trends moving toward cleaner alternatives, demand for hybrid and electric vehicles in Pakistan is on the rise. The Haval H6 PHEV’s launch may pave the way for other global automakers to introduce their hybrid offerings.
Consumers looking for a high-performance yet fuel-efficient SUV now have an attractive option — one that competes with traditional petrol vehicles in power while offering environmental and long-term cost benefits.
Booking and Delivery Details
Pre-bookings for the Haval H6 PHEV are now open at authorized dealerships nationwide for Rs. 2.4 million. The first batch of deliveries is expected to begin shortly after the launch date in August, depending on assembly schedules and regulatory approvals.

Conclusion: A Bold Step Toward a Greener Future
The launch of the Haval H6 PHEV in Pakistan is a landmark moment for the country’s automotive industry. It represents a major push toward electrification, offering consumers a premium hybrid SUV without compromising on performance, luxury, or everyday practicality.
With two more PHEVs set to follow, GWM Pakistan and Sazgar are positioning themselves as early leaders in the hybrid segment — signaling a bright, more sustainable future for mobility in the region.
