Our Wild Great Wall driver picked us up at the Marriott City Wall Hotel at 7:30 am. The goal was to beat the morning commute traffic out of Beijing. Apparently, in addition to beautiful blue skies, the Belt and Road Forum had unintended consequences. Great Wall products have been available in many places across the globe, including Australia. The majority of exports may be in the form of knock-down kits as is the case with the assembly plant in Bulgaria. In Europe, Great Wall Motors is present in Romania, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Italy, Serbia, and the United Kingdom.

The Haval H5, also known as the Great Wall Haval H5 and Hover H5, is a compact sport utility vehicle (SUV) produced by the Chinese manufacturer Great Wall Motors from June 2010 to 2020. It uses a body-on-frame construction,[7] with rear-wheel-drive and selectable four-wheel-drive,[8] and is available with either gasoline or diesel engines.
In Australia, it was being marketed as the X-Series, with model names relating to engine size, thus as the X240 and the X200.[9] The vehicle has passed the European tests regarding environment protection, safety and performance and is entitled for marketing throughout the European Union.[10] It is the successor of the Great Wall Haval H3 and both cars are nearly identical, except for their front designs.[11]
Features[edit]
It uses Mitsubishi 4G63 and Mitsubishi 4G69S4N petrol engines of 2.0 and 2.4 litres, or the 80 kW (109 PS) GW2.5TCI diesel. In October 2010, the more powerful 110 kW (150 PS) but smaller (2.0 litres) GW4D20 diesel was added to the lineup.[12] The Haval H5 comes with either a five-speed or a six-speed manual transmission, depending on model. It uses disk brakes. It has three trims: Standard, Luxury and Premium. The Premium trim features power windows, power door locks, rear window defrosters, leather seats, power-adjustable driver's seat, six speakers, a DVD player, GPS and a power sunroof all as standard. Heated seats are optional.[13] Styling of the body and rear end of the Haval H5 is extremely similar to the exterior design of the Isuzu Axiom, with the front end design taking inspiration from the Mazda CX-7.
Starting from 2011, the variant sold in Australia is no longer the H3, but the facelifted H5, although the 2.4 litre gasoline model is sold as the X240 and is only available in manual transmission, and the 2.0 litre diesel models are available in either automatic or manual transmission and are sold as the X200.
Four wheel drive: The X200 automatic version (2013) does not feature a low and high range while in 4WD mode. The manual version does.

Variations[edit]
A slightly different version, with a typical large grille and called the GKC Edition was also produced, but only for the Chinese market.[14] This version was facelifted in July 2011 and was known as the Zhizun.[15]
