Haima Freema

Haima Freema: which version to buy (2006–2017)

The Haima Freema is a Minivan sold across 2 generations from 2006 to 2017. If you are choosing a car rather than cataloguing one, the useful split is simple: first-generation cars (2006–2010) offer only the 1.8 MT and 1.8 AT; second-generation cars (2010–2017, including search years 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2015) add a 1.6 MT and keep both 1.8 gearboxes.

If you are choosing a car rather than cataloguing one, the useful split is simple: first-generation cars (2006–2010) offer only the 1.8 MT and 1.8 AT; second-generation cars (2010–2017, including search years 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2015) add a 1.6 MT and keep both 1.8 gearboxes. All named versions are front-wheel drive (FWD), Gasoline, naturally aspirated (No boost), Inline 4 with 4 valves per cylinder, front transverse, and multi-point injection. The only fully measured performance set is the second-generation 1.6 MT (14.9 s to 100 km/h, 170 km/h). Every other 0–100, top-speed, consumption, kerb-weight, and clearance figure in this model’s data is not measured.

Haima Freema generations: what actually changed

2 generation (2010–2017) — three versions, one extra engine

2 generation ran 2010-01-01 to 2017-12-31 as a Minivan with 3 versions: 1.6 MT, 1.8 MT, 1.8 AT. This is the generation people hit when they search Haima Freema 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2015. The buy decision here is engine size versus gearbox: 1598 cm³ and 120 hp (88 kW at 6000 rpm) with 158 Nm at 4500 rpm in the 1.6 MT, versus 1839 cm³ and 122 hp (90 kW at 6000 rpm) in both 1.8 cars. The extra 241 cm³ of the 1.8 buys 2 hp and 2 kW — +1.7% power for +15.1% displacement. Specific output therefore favours the smaller engine: 120 / 1.598 ≈ 75.1 hp per litre on 1.6 MT versus 122 / 1.839 ≈ 66.3 hp per litre on either 1.8. Torque for both 1.8 versions is not measured, so you cannot claim the larger engine “has more pull”; you can only say it has more cubic centimetres and 2 more horsepower.

Gearboxes on 2 generation are 5-speed Manual on 1.6 MT and 1.8 MT, and 4-speed Automatic on 1.8 AT. The automatic is the only Freema in this generation that is not a five-speed manual. Fuel tank is 55 L on all three 2 generation versions. Chassis labels are identical: independent spring front, independent spring rear, ventilated disc front, Disc rear, FWD.

1 generation (2006–2010) — two versions, no 1.6

1 generation ran 2006-01-01 to 2010-12-31 as a Minivan with 2 versions: 1.8 MT and 1.8 AT. That is the set for Haima Freema 2007, 2008, and 2009 searches. There is no 1.6 in this generation. Both cars use the same 1839 cm³ Gasoline Inline 4, 122 hp / 90 kW at 6000 rpm, No boost, FWD. The only numbered difference between them is the gearbox: 5-speed Manual versus 4-speed Automatic. Tank, 0–100, top speed, torque, consumption, weights, clearance, and wheels are not measured on both 1 generation versions.

Year overlap: 2010 appears on both generations’ date ranges (1 generation stop 2010-12-31, 2 generation start 2010-01-01). A 2010 listing is therefore not self-identifying; you still have to match engine (1598 vs 1839) and whether a 1.6 MT exists on that car.

Haima Freema specs and engine table

Exact version names as in the data. Duplicate names 1.8 MT and 1.8 AT exist in both generations; both generations’ 1.8 cars are 122 hp, so they are told apart by generation years, not by a second power figure.

Shared on every row: Gasoline, 4 valves per cylinder, front transverse, distributed injection (multi-point), FWD. Compression ratio and bore × stroke: not measured on all five versions.

Performance, mpg, and what is not measured

0–100 km/h: only 2 generation 1.6 MT is measured, at 14.9 s. 1.8 MT and 1.8 AT in both generations: not measured. You cannot rank the 1.8 cars on acceleration with this dataset. The 2 hp gap (122 vs 120) is +1.7%; without kerb mass (all not measured) you also cannot compute kg per horsepower.

Top speed: only 2 generation 1.6 MT, 170 km/h. All 1.8 versions: not measured.

Fuel consumption (city / highway / mixed) and CO2 / eco class: not measured on every version. There is no mpg figure to prefer one engine over another. Fuel grade is 95 on all five.

Tank: 55 L on all three 2 generation versions; not measured on both 1 generation versions. Range cannot be calculated without consumption.

Dimensions, weight, and ground clearance

Kerb weight: not measured (all versions). Gross weight: not measured (all versions). Ground clearance: not measured (all versions). Wheels: not measured (all versions). Tank: 55 L (2 generation 1.6 MT, 1.8 MT, 1.8 AT); not measured (1 generation 1.8 MT, 1.8 AT).

Suspension and brakes do not differentiate versions: independent spring front and rear; ventilated disc front; Disc rear. You are not buying a different chassis layout when you move from 1.6 MT to 1.8 AT.

Which Haima Freema version to choose

Use the numbers, not marketing. There is no price field in the data, so “extra money” here means extra displacement, extra ratios in the gearbox, or a later generation — not a sticker.

If you want the only version with a complete performance line: 2 generation 1.6 MT (2010–2017). It is the sole Freema with 158 Nm (4500 rpm), 14.9 s 0–100, and 170 km/h. It also has the highest specific output in the table (≈ 75.1 hp/L vs ≈ 66.3 hp/L on the 1839 cm³ engines) and a 5-speed Manual. Against the same-generation 1.8 MT you give up 2 hp and 241 cm³ and keep the same Manual 5, FWD, 55 L tank, and the same suspension/brake labels.

If you want maximum listed power and a manual: 1.8 MT in either generation (122 hp, 90 kW @ 6000, 1839 cm³, Manual 5, FWD). Versus 1.6 MT that is +2 hp / +2 kW. Versus 1.8 AT in the same generation, the only counted difference is 5 speeds Manual versus 4 speeds Automatic. Torque, 0–100, top speed, and mpg for 1.8 MT remain not measured. Prefer 2 generation 1.8 MT if you want the 55 L tank that is measured there; 1 generation 1.8 MT has tank not measured.

If you want an automatic: only 1.8 AT exists, in both generations (122 hp, 90 kW @ 6000, 1839 cm³, Automatic 4, FWD). There is no 1.6 automatic and no 5-speed automatic in this model. Versus 1.8 MT you lose one ratio (4 vs 5) and keep the same power and displacement. 2 generation 1.8 AT has the 55 L tank; 1 generation 1.8 AT does not have a measured tank.

If the listing is 2007, 2008, or 2009: you are in 1 generation. Choice is only 1.8 MT vs 1.8 AT — same 122 hp, same 1839 cm³, gearbox 5 Manual vs 4 Automatic. No 1.6 MT to consider.

If the listing is 2011, 2012, 2013, or 2015: you are in 2 generation. Three-way choice: 1.6 MT (measured performance, 120 hp, 158 Nm, 1598 cm³) vs 1.8 MT (122 hp, 1839 cm³, Manual 5) vs 1.8 AT (122 hp, Automatic 4).

If the listing is 2010: check which generation. Presence of 1.6 MT means 2 generation. Two 1.8 boxes only, no 1.6, can still be 1 generation through 2010-12-31.

What does not help the choice: drive (FWD everywhere), fuel type (Gasoline / 95 everywhere), boost (No everywhere), cylinder count and layout (4 Inline everywhere), injection (multi-point everywhere), and the suspension/brake set (identical English labels). Reliability and known problems are not measured in this dataset; do not infer them from hp or years.

Short ranking from the arithmetic only

1. 2 generation 1.6 MT — only complete spec card; best hp per litre; 5-speed Manual; 55 L. 2. 2 generation 1.8 MT — +2 hp over the 1.6, same Manual 5 and 55 L; torque and 0–100 not measured. 3. 2 generation 1.8 AT — same 122 hp as the 1.8 manual, 4-speed Automatic, 55 L. 4. 1 generation 1.8 MT — same 122 hp and Manual 5 as later 1.8 MT; tank and performance not measured. 5. 1 generation 1.8 AT — same 122 hp and Automatic 4 as later 1.8 AT; tank and performance not measured.

That order is a spec-completeness and power-density order, not a road-test ranking. Where a number is missing, the honest line is not measured, not “unknown in the market.”
