Haval Jolion and Jolion Pro (2025) Price & Specs in South Africa

Take a look at the specification and pricing details for the updated Haval Jolion range – now including Jolion Pro variants – in South Africa!

In 2024, GWM South Africa rolled out a revised Haval Jolion range, complete with new-to-Mzansi Jolion Pro derivatives.

The Chinese firm’s revamped Jolion portfolio comprises 7 front-wheel-drive derivatives, with the 2 Jolion City derivatives serving as an entry point to the range while the Jolion Pro derivatives offer a sportier execution and enhanced features.

For the record, the outgoing range’s pricing bookends stand at R348 350 and R579 950, while the rejigged line-up’s brackets are fascinatingly both lower and tighter at R347 950 and R519 950. More on individual-model pricing in a bit…

What is the Haval Jolion Pro?

The big news (besides the price cuts, of course) is the arrival of the new Jolion Pro derivatives, which will be sold alongside selected surviving standard Jolion variants. At 4 470 mm long, the Jolion Pro – which wears the “Chitu” nameplate in the brand’s domestic market – is 2 mm shorter than the standard version of the crossover but measures 24 mm wider (at 1 898 mm) and stands 44 mm taller (at 1 625 mm).

Pro-badged derivatives, as pictured here, are set apart by items such as a model-specific grille (with vertical bars), a sportily styled front lip, chunky side skirts, black exterior door handles, a cheeky rear spoiler and a taillamp design that spans the width of the vehicle. In addition, the Jolion Pro’s daytime running lights are separate from its headlight clusters.

Th revised range includes 2 standard Jolion City derivatives (with minor styling updates) and 5 new Jolion Pro variants. However, the outgoing line-up’s powertrains continue unchanged.

What engines are offered for the Jolion?

The Jolion 1.5T City – equipped with a 105 kW/210 Nm turbocharged 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine and a 6-speed manual gearbox – again plays the entry-level role and is priced from R347 950. Standard features for the base model include a 10.25-inch touchscreen, fabric upholstery, 17-inch alloy wheels, cruise control, 4 airbags, ABS with EBD, stability control, tyre-pressure monitoring, keyless entry and 3 rear parking sensors.

Next comes the Jolion 1.5T City Plus DCT priced from R372 950, which upgrades to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and a new “City Plus” trim level. This fresh grade features items like automatic headlamps, rain-sensing wipers, a leatherette-trimmed (as opposed to polyurethane) steering wheel, a reverse-view camera, hill-descent control and dual-zone automatic (rather than manual) air-conditioning.

And the Pro models? Well, the Jolion Pro 1.5T Premium DCT (R391 150), Jolion Pro 1.5T Super Luxury DCT (R427 950) and Jolion Pro 1.5T Ultra Luxury DCT (R464 950) – the latter also representing a new grade for the range – all use the same 1.5-litre turbopetrol powertrain with 105 kW and 210 Nm and paired with the 7-speed dual-clutch cog-swapper standard in each case.

The Premium grade comes with items such as dedicated drive- and steering modes, along with 4 rear parking sensors, though reverts to manual air-conditioning. From the Super Luxury level up, leatherette upholstery (and an electrically adjustable driver’s seat), a panoramic sunroof, a 7-inch (rather than 3.5-inch) instrument cluster, a 12.3-inch touchscreen, 2 extra airbags (for a total of 6), various driver-assistance systems, LED headlamps and 18-inch alloys are all standard.

What about the “S” derivative? Well, this treatment has now been reserved for the Jolion Pro S 1.5T Ultra Luxury DCT, priced at R498 950. As a reminder, power comes from an uprated version of the aforementioned turbocharged 1.5-litre motor, which here offers 130 kW and 270 Nm to the front wheels. This model furthermore upgrades to multi-link rear suspension, as opposed to the more basic torsion-beam arrangement employed lower in the range.

Finally, there’s the flagship hybrid variant, which is now available exclusively in “Pro” form (and also features a multi-link rear suspension set-up). Priced at R519 950, the Jolion Pro 1.5 HEV Ultra Luxury DHT is considerably cheaper than the outgoing Super Luxury version of the hybrid. It retains the combination of a naturally aspirated 1.5-litre petrol engine (with a CVT), an electric motor and a battery pack, with unchanged peak outputs of 140 kW and 375 Nm.

Covering the top 3 models, the Ultra Luxury grade further includes items such as wireless smartphone charging, heated front seats, a ventilated driver’s seat, electric adjustment for the front passenger seat, extra rear parking sensors (for a total of 6), front parking sensors, a 360-degree camera system, a head-up display, ambient lighting and yet more driver-assistance systems.

The Haval Jolion is currently GWM SA’s best-selling model according to the latest sales figures released by Naamsa.
