According to the Haval press service, the main change affected the all-wheel drive version: the 1.5-liter turbo engine, which is now produced in the Tula region, retained the power of 150 hp, but its torque increased from 230 to 270 Nm. This made it possible to reduce acceleration to hundreds by 0.7 seconds – now it takes 9.1 seconds. The engine complies with Euro 6 standards, which reduces fuel consumption to 7.6 liters in the combined cycle.
Inside, the center console received a new control unit with the usual volume knob, and instead of a rotating gearbox disc, a classic electronic joystick appeared. The tunnel between the seats has become more functional, and the wireless charging power has increased to 50 W. The multimedia system has acquired voice control that works without an Internet connection.
The start of sales of the updated Jolion is scheduled for the first quarter of 2026. Prices start from 2 million rubles for the version with front-wheel drive and manual transmission and reach 2.9 million rubles for the top version “Techno+” with all-wheel drive and “robot”.
It was previously reported that the revived Russo-Balt is preparing an unmanned version of its van.
