Haval F5: coupe-style SUV, tech specs and what to know before buying
The Haval F5 is a coupe-style SUV from the Haval F series with a sporty, sloping roofline, mostly sold in China. We look at what makes the model stand out, its tech specs, and what you need to know if you're considering one of these cars outside the Chinese market.
F5 at a glance
The F5 is a youthful-looking Haval SUV with a sloping roofline. It's aimed at buyers who prioritise style and technology over traditional practicality.
Not officially sold in Lithuania, so you'll only find the occasional imported car.
Versions and updates
The F5 receives updates with changes to the front fascia, headlights, interior, and infotainment system. Newer versions come with more driver-assistance features and larger screens.
Names and equipment vary by market, so it's best to identify specific examples by their VIN code and the seller's information.
Engines and transmissions
The F5 comes with turbocharged petrol engines paired with dual-clutch or automatic transmissions. This is modern tech that usually suits daily driving.
Exact power figures and engine codes depend on the year and version, so check these in the car's documents.
What to check when buying a used F5
Ensure the car is legally registered and meets EU standards. Some of these cars are imported from Asian markets, so their equipment and headlights might differ from those used in Europe.
Test the gearbox (movement, shifting), check the condition of the turbocharger, cooling system, and electronics. Parts and service might be scarce in Lithuania.
