Anyone owning a Great Wall -M4 SUV.
Great look mid size SUV,attractive price and very good built quality.
Back in Dec 2015,they're giving a 7 years warranty with unlimited mileage.
My wife's Citreon C3 is up for a change.
Thinking of getting the M4,any reviews/comments?

Was at the haval h2 exhibition when haval jz launched d h2.. meet one owner of m4 there.. he shared alot bout the m4 but the only thing I rmb him saying is this car is underpowered..

quite good looking car for Haval M4.. maybe less service center is the only the problem..

Heard the rear seats legroom is small.

I heard that it's fitted with a Nissan Lavina engine

You can read an in depth review by a local car blogger :

I've read thru most of the review,but sometimes it would be more meaningful to actually hear it from an owner,cos they would have driven the car for months.Sometimes things pop up a few months down the road.

The magazine reviewers only have the car for a few days or maybe a week or two.

Ya it's rather small,but I think it's cos the upright seating position of the back seat.

not scared of AMT gearbox?

I was told that it is fitter with vios engine

unlikely...

anyway... probably a toyota (though an article posted earlier mentions that its actually mitsu)

don't know about you, but this looks remarkably similar, don't you think?

I thinking about the manual model.

Thanks that settles it thanks

innards could be diferent but..... based on the external shape/structure... looks like a toyota to me

My concern is that they used other "no so reliable" engines.But if it's from toyota or Mit or Nissan,than it's ok.
Considering the fact that they provide 7 years unlimited milage,they must be confidant of their engine.

What's makes u think that's a Toyota engine? U know China can copy, but quality can be diff. Hahaha

Ya,maybe.But the point is,they gave 7 years unlimited milage warranty.

^ exactly.....

might look like a toyota engine or be based off any engine for the matter but built, design, tolerances might be diferent. So until its proven itself on our roads after a few years, reliability is a question mark. If you ask me, that gearbox is an even larger potential disaster.

on paper, it looks relatively decent. japanese engine + german amt but honestly one would not know if its any good until it proves itself few years down the road.

pls update ur view on china product, for a company at this size, they are licensing by original manufacturer.
reason:
1. out dated by original manufacturer (as they have newer engine)
2. Original manufacturer don't have to keep or keep making spare.

a lot big brand is doing this practice now.

Even if it's a Toyota, AMT is big no no.
