Engines and transmission

The gasoline-fuelled Great Wall Haval H3 uses the Mitsubishi 4G69 Sirius series straight-4 automobile engine. The 4G64 engine was introduced in 1988 in the Mitsubishi Galant and has been used by several other car manufacturers. The 4G64 engine produces Шаблон:Convert and was used in H3s from the 2005 to 2009 model year. The other Mitsubishi engine, the 2.4 litre 4G69, was used in models from 2007 to 2010. The diesel version uses a motor built by Great Wall themselves, the GW2.8TC. Both versions have a 5-gear manual transmission. Those models had the name Hover H3 and H5. For the Chinese market, Great Wall also offered a 2.5 litre and 2.8 litre TCI diesel engine with Шаблон:Convert and Шаблон:Convert respectively. These engines both use a modern common rail system from Bosch. The 2.8 litre diesel engine was used in models from 2006 to 2009 while the 2.5 litre version was available from 2009 to 2012. Both diesel engines were turbocharged.

Environmental and safety test

One of the main problems facing exported Chinese cars was European safety and environmental regulations. The Great Wall Haval H3 complies with the Euro-III emissions standard. It was awarded three stars from C-NCAP crash testing. In the Australasian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP) crash testing undertaken on 24 March 2010, the post-2009 model Haval 3 received a Four Star rating. The Great Wall Haval H3 has not yet been tested by Euro NCAP. With new engines which Great Wall Motor installed in the Haval H3, all models now comply with Euro 4 regulations. In Italy, a version of the Hover called the EcoDual is sold equipped to run on alternatives fuels, being equipped with LPG or CNG capabilities. From 2009 year vehicle have Euro 4 engine which was also installed in Hover 5

Limousine version

Great Wall also produces a more luxurious, limousine version of the Hover, called the Great Wall Hover Pi (Шаблон:Zh). Its name is also sometimes spelt Hover π. The first Hover Pi was given as a gift to Fidel Castro in 2006. The vehicle has so far been the best selling vehicle of its kind (most others originating outside China being stretched by third-party conversion outfits), being exported to Japan, South Korea, France, Italy, Malaysia, Russia, South Africa, and other overseas markets. In 2008, the Hover Pi's length was extended from 6.7 meters to 6.9 meters.
