About the Great Wall Hover H3
The Great Wall Hover H3, also known as the Haval H3, represented a significant step in the brand's global expansion, featuring a facelifted design over the original Hover. It utilizes a traditional body-on-frame construction and a suspension setup consisting of independent double wishbones at the front and a live axle at the rear. The 2.0-litre engine is a licensed Mitsubishi 4G63 unit, valued more for its reliability and ease of maintenance than for outright performance. While basic by modern standards, it gained popularity in emerging markets and parts of Europe for its affordability and genuine off-road capability.
