Haima 7: Which Version to Buy and Why

The Haima 7 range offers four closely related versions from its only generation, produced from July 2013 to June 2016 as an SUV 5-doors. Every version combines a 1,995 cc Gasoline engine with FWD, but buyers must choose between Manual and Automatic transmissions and between 136 hp and 150 hp outputs.

The Haima 7 range offers four closely related versions from its only generation, produced from July 2013 to June 2016 as an SUV 5-doors. Every version combines a 1,995 cc Gasoline engine with FWD, but buyers must choose between Manual and Automatic transmissions and between 136 hp and 150 hp outputs. The 150 hp 2.0 MT is the strongest all-round choice: it pairs the higher output with the lowest measured kerb weight, the quickest listed performance shared across the range, and lower measured combined consumption than the 150 hp 2.0 AT. The 2.0 AT with 150 hp is the alternative for buyers who specifically want an Automatic, while the two 136 hp versions offer less power without any listed improvement in acceleration.

Haima 7 generations and versions

The Haima 7 has one generation in the supplied catalogue data. The 1 generation ran from July 2013 through June 2016 and used an SUV 5-doors body. It contains four versions: 2.0 MT with 150 hp, 2.0 AT with 150 hp, 2.0 MT with 136 hp, and 2.0 AT with 136 hp. Because all four belong to the same generation, the meaningful buying comparison concerns engine output, transmission, measured economy, weight, and ground clearance rather than changes between generations.

Haima 7 engine and transmission specs

All four Haima 7 versions have a naturally aspirated 1,995 cc Gasoline engine with 4 cylinders in an Inline layout, 4 valves per cylinder, distributed injection (multi-point), and 180 Nm at 4,500 rpm. Maximum power arrives at 6,000 rpm. The 150 hp versions produce 110 kW, while the 136 hp versions produce 100 kW.

Choosing either 150 hp version provides 14 hp and 10 kW more than its 136 hp transmission equivalent, an increase of about 10.3%. Torque does not change: every version is listed at 180 Nm. The stronger tune therefore adds peak power rather than additional listed torque.

The data specifies a Front, transverse engine position, a compression ratio of 10, and an 84 × 90 bore and stroke for the 150 hp 2.0 MT and 150 hp 2.0 AT. These parameters are not measured for either 136 hp version. Fuel grade is listed as 95 for both 150 hp versions and is not measured for the 136 hp versions.

Haima 7 performance, fuel economy and mpg data

Every Haima 7 version has a listed 0–100 km/h time of 12 seconds. The higher-output 2.0 MT and 2.0 AT versions reach 175 km/h, while both 136 hp versions reach 165 km/h. The extra 14 hp therefore corresponds to a 10 km/h higher listed top speed, although it does not reduce the stated acceleration time.

Between the two 150 hp versions, the 2.0 AT uses 0.2 L/100 km less in the city, but the 2.0 MT uses 0.3 L/100 km less on the highway and 0.3 L/100 km less on the combined cycle. No valid economy comparison can be made with either 136 hp version because all three consumption figures are not measured.

CO₂ output is not measured for any version. The 150 hp 2.0 MT and 2.0 AT are listed as Euro 4; the emissions class of the 136 hp 2.0 MT and 2.0 AT is not measured.

Haima 7 dimensions, weight and ground clearance

All four versions have a 61 L fuel tank, independent spring front and rear suspension, and disc front and rear brakes. The measured weight data distinguishes the two 150 hp choices clearly.

The 150 hp 2.0 AT is 60 kg heavier than the 150 hp 2.0 MT in both kerb and gross terms. Its advantage is 10 mm more ground clearance: 195 mm rather than 185 mm. The 150 hp 2.0 MT has the better measured power-to-weight relationship, carrying about 9.57 kg per horsepower compared with about 9.97 kg per horsepower for the 150 hp 2.0 AT.

Kerb weight and gross weight are not measured for the 136 hp versions, so their weight per horsepower cannot be calculated. Wheel sizes are also not measured for three versions; only the 150 hp 2.0 MT has listed sizes, at 215/70 R16 and 235/70 R16.

Haima 7 reliability and problems data

Reliability ratings, fault records, maintenance costs, and recurring problems are not measured in the supplied data for the 2.0 MT or 2.0 AT at either power level. The specifications therefore cannot support a claim that one transmission or output is more reliable than another. Buyers comparing used examples should treat condition and maintenance history as separate questions rather than infer reliability from the performance figures.

Which Haima 7 version should you buy?

The 2.0 MT with 150 hp is the most convincing specification-led choice. It matches the 150 hp 2.0 AT at 12 seconds to 100 km/h and 175 km/h, yet its measured kerb weight is 60 kg lower. It also records 8.8 L/100 km combined consumption against 9.1 L/100 km for the Automatic. Its trade-offs are the Manual gearbox, 10 mm less ground clearance, and slightly higher city consumption by 0.2 L/100 km.

Choose the 2.0 AT with 150 hp when an Automatic gearbox matters more than minimum weight or combined consumption. It preserves the full 150 hp and 175 km/h specification, offers 195 mm of clearance, and has the lowest measured city figure at 12.3 L/100 km. In return, it is heavier and uses an additional 0.3 L/100 km on the measured combined cycle.

The 2.0 MT with 136 hp makes sense only if its individual condition or acquisition terms outweigh the specification gap. Compared with the 150 hp 2.0 MT, it has 14 hp less, the same 180 Nm, the same 12-second acceleration figure, and a top speed lower by 10 km/h. Its consumption and weight are not measured, so the data provides no evidence of an efficiency or mass advantage.

The same caution applies to the 2.0 AT with 136 hp. It gives buyers the Automatic transmission, but compared with the 150 hp 2.0 AT it loses 14 hp and 10 km/h of top speed while retaining the same 180 Nm and 12-second acceleration time. Fuel consumption, weight, emissions class, and wheel sizes are not measured, leaving no numerical basis for preferring it over the 150 hp Automatic.

On the available figures, the ranking is straightforward: buy the 150 hp 2.0 MT for the best balance of output, measured weight, and combined economy; buy the 150 hp 2.0 AT for Automatic convenience and the greatest listed ground clearance. Consider either 136 hp version only when factors outside these specifications make the particular vehicle more attractive.
