The Haval Cool Dog is a compact SUV produced by Chinese SUV manufacturer Haval, a marque of Great Wall Motors, from 2022.
The Haval Cool Dog was first revealed as the X Dog concept at Auto Shanghai on April 21, 2021 in Shanghai, China.[1]
Patents of the production model surfaced in August,[2] and images of it surfaced later in October when the SUV started arriving at Haval dealerships in China.[3] The name was later revealed to be 'Cool Dog'.[4]
The trims ordered from low to high are 潮酷, 湘音, 期动 and 湘野.[5]
A plug-in hybrid model of the Cool Dog will be released after the ICE variant is launched in early 2022.[3]
Two engine options are available for the Cool Dog, a 1.5-litre turbo 4-cylinder producing 1840NaN0 and a 2.0-litre turbo 4-cylinder producing 170and respectively.[3] [6]
The Haval Cool Dog was noted for its unconventional steering wheel featuring a touchscreen in the center.
