The design of modern cars can easily confuse the consumer. Sometimes budget cars look expensive, and premium – on the contrary, simple. Outwardly distinguishable from each other, the models can turn out to be completely different in units, price and audience. Like Tank 400 and 700, for example. And in most components, the nozzle in most components is sometimes not too similar to each other visually. This is just the Haval H7, which, in fact, is another body for the popular Dargo. But the manufacturer tried to offer the consumer H7 not only an alternative design, but also something harder.
For this, the Haval H7 made more than Dargo. In comparison with the latter, the length is increased by 85 mm, of which most (72 mm) fell on the wheeled base. This means that the second row passengers won most of the increase in dimensions, and the test trip fully confirms this assumption. The legs for the legs, even in Dargo, is enough for a comfortable landing, and a more spacious H7 offers to naturally sit on the leg to realize the added overall potential.

The trunk also received an increase in volume, which will be especially noticeable with a folded rear row – when almost all additional centimeters of the body will go into a single cargo space. This fact is especially happy with those users who transport bulky equipment in the car or arrange a sleeping place in the cabin during travel. But the increased dimensions of the cargo compartment are noticeable even without folding seats. Therefore, one of the main claims to Dargo – a modest trunk – in the case of H7 is not relevant.

The second thing that the stretched base has influenced is an off -road geometry. The clearance remained unchanged, 200 mm. Therefore, the angle of the ramp was slightly worsened – that is, the steepness of the fracture of the surface, which can be overcome without touching the bottom. But this is only one of many hypothetical situations on offroge, where such nuances can solve something. In fact, the route laid along his career showed the ability of H7 to drive various obstacles at the level of Dargo X.

Even tasks for off -road geometry like steep rise and descents on bumps with diagonal hanging Haval H7 drove as confidently as a more compact relative. Other types of ambushes – moving along a clay traverse or maneuvering in a cramped forest – H7 also overcame on a par with Dargo. And some tasks were given to him even a little easier. For example, during a quick ride on a broken primer, the H7 was as if a little more stable due to the same increased base.

I did not have the opportunity to compare the two models in the face rate format, since the organizers provided only H7 to familiarize themselves, and Dargo used themselves. Therefore, it is difficult to reason for sure about how close their running qualities are. But subjective by the fact that I remember the behavior of Dargo, the differences are so minimal that they can be neglected. At least, the vector of settings of two models was clearly the same – they have a very similar balance of comfort and controllability, as well as a supply of energy intensity and dynamics.
HAVAL
Confirmation of these sensations is technical data: General platform, the motor and transmission are the same, pendants too. The HAVAL H7 is only 80 kg heavier, which makes its dynamics the same as that of Dargo, in the cabin of which is one passenger more. In real conditions, from the point of view of the driver, there is no difference in acceleration or controllability.
Perhaps it will be possible to notice something in terms of better stability in the straight line (again due to the enlarged base), but for this you need to jump from one car to another. Only to look for this benefit is not enough – after all, Dargo has everything is fine on the highway.

Of course, there are some differences on the go, because they cannot but be. These are still different cars, the characteristics of which are slightly different, and the settings are made in accordance with these specifications. But this difference is so insignificant that when choosing from two models, it can not be taken into account. What then to be guided by, in addition to the added space? And at least by design, because this is one of the main factors that many pay attention to when buying.

Due to its freshness, the Haval H7 looks somewhat more interesting – has not become familiar yet. But over time, the effect of novelty will pass, and the appearance will remain. More athletic, rapid proportions and shapes, as well as a number of details that can like and tear off, pay attention to it. In front, these are falsity in the grill that remind of oil kara, but do not even try to seem real air ducts. It looks like an imitation of graduation pipes in the rear bumper of many modern models. Doubt, in general.

The design of lighting equipment is striking in the back-some Italian-Japanese notes can be seen in it. In my subjective opinion, Dargo still looks more solid, which means it is less susceptible to moral obsolescence. While the H7 is more original and interesting in details – but at the same time the amendment of the “amateur” is more applicable to it. According to the manufacturer, a more bold and bright design helps to address this model a younger audience than Dargo.

The same task is performed by upgrades in the cabin. A more modern multimedia system is installed here, and the screen has an increased diagonal (14.6 inches versus 12.3) and is carried out separately, and not integrated into the front panel. The interface of the entertainment complex is similar to such in the flagship Haval H9 or Tank 500. Compared to Dargo, the functionality of the multimedia is expanded due to voice control and deeply built into the Yandex service.

The entrance to the Yandex account with all the arising personalization of services in the car is supported. And navigation is displayed not only on the central monitor, but also on the dashboard in the form of a card and even on a projection screen in the form of tips when maintaining along the route. Comfortable. There is also a corporate service audiobook. Also, unlike Dargo, there is a voice assistant who understands 800 teams for managing 150 functions. Those who are able to find a common language with this technology will apparently be happy.

There are differences in the style of interior design. The transmission selector in Haval H7 is made in the spirit of the Tank joystick. The handrails from the front racks are transferred to the door and combined with handles – using these interior elements is convenient both in their first and second quality. On the off-road, holding on to them generally mega is complicated, so the handrail over the glove compartment acquires a purely decorative function.
Of the functional differences, a number of mechanical keys under the central screen are also added – with a long shoulder and a pleasant stroke. But the functions chosen for them reduce the usefulness of this “piano” to a minimum: neither adjusting temperature or volume control there. But cup holders with the bottom of the bottom are a very cool thing from the category of Simply Clever’s school tricks.

For an unknown reason (apparently, in order to leave Dargo some part of the advantages) for the driver’s seat is not provided with massage. But there are several relaxation programs available from multimedia. But perhaps not a simple massage in Dargo is still more useful than pampering. You can also not choose the H7 salon with dark upholstery of the ceiling, but there is an interior option with a spectacular trim of seats with terracotta material – as an alternative completely black. But the jewelry in the form of panels a la carbon puzzled – the solution is outdated and not too appropriate for the crossover.

How to make a choice between two models so close to each other? Everything is simple. You have a budget for a non -base all -wheel drive Dargo, experience sympathy for the H7 design and know how to use the additional volume of the cabin – take H7. If you want an advanced multimedia with a large tablet and voice control, even more so. This will cost only 100 or 150 thousand rubles from above to the cost of a similarly equipped Dargo, depending on the configuration. That quite a bit relative to the price of the car is approximately the difference between neighboring assemblies.

Let me remind you that when choosing between H7 and Dargo, you can not puzzle over the difference in running qualities – it can be said, no. Therefore, if the budget is limited or all -wheel drive is not required, and also when the parking space is too close or if you prefer a strict design, it will be reasonable to save and dwell on Dargo. After all, not everyone needs extra centimeters and kilograms, youth design and maximum gadgetization. /m
