Haval Dargo: which version to buy
The Haval Dargo catalogue lists 1 generation (from 2022-09-01, still in production) and one version: 2.0 DCT. There is no second engine, gearbox, or drive to pick against. The buying question is therefore not “which Dargo” in the sense of a trim matrix — it is whether 2.0 DCT matches the numbers you need: 192 hp, 320 Nm, FWD, 7-speed Robotic, SUV 5-doors, Euro 6.

Generations: what you can actually choose
1 generation (start 2022-09-01, stop not measured) is the only generation. Body: SUV 5-doors. Count of versions in the data: 1. There is no restyle listed as a separate generation and no second generation to compare year-to-year. If a later generation appears in the catalogue, it is not in this dataset; do not treat “1 generation” as one of several.
That single generation contains only 2.0 DCT. Arithmetic between generations is not possible: there is no older Dargo with a different kerb weight, clearance, or gearbox in these figures.

Specs: the only version, named as in the data
| Version | hp | Nm | Displacement (cc) | Fuel | Cylinders | Layout | Boost | Gearbox | Drive |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.0 DCT | 192 | 320 | 1998 | Gasoline | 4 | Inline | Turbo | Robotic, 7 | FWD |
Engine placement: Front, transverse. Injection: Direct injection (direct). Compression ratio: 12. Bore × stroke: not measured. Fuel grade: 92. Front brakes: Ventilated disc. Rear brakes: Disc. Front suspension: Independent, spring. Rear suspension: Independent, spring.
Power density of 2.0 DCT: 192 hp ÷ 1.998 L = 96.1 hp per litre. Torque density: 320 Nm ÷ 1.998 L = 160.2 Nm per litre. Peak power is given at 5600-6300 rpm; peak torque at 1500 – 4000 rpm. That spread is the whole “which engine” decision: one turbo Gasoline four, one Robotic 7, one FWD.

Performance and mpg: what 2.0 DCT actually posts
2.0 DCT 0–100: 9 s. Top speed: 180. City consumption: 10.9. Highway: 6.7. Combined: 8.3. CO₂: 190. Eco class: Euro 6.
City vs combined: 10.9 − 8.3 = 2.6 more in city than mixed. Combined vs highway: 8.3 − 6.7 = 1.6. City vs highway: 10.9 − 6.7 = 4.2. If your use is mostly highway, the listed 6.7 is 38.5% below the city 10.9 ((10.9 − 6.7) / 10.9). If your use is city, budget the 10.9, not the 8.3.
Tank: 60. Implied range from listed consumption (tank ÷ L/100 km × 100): city 60 / 10.9 × 100 ≈ 550 km; combined 60 / 8.3 × 100 ≈ 723 km; highway 60 / 6.7 × 100 ≈ 896 km. These are arithmetic on the given figures, not a separate test.
There is no second Dargo row with a different 0–100 or a different combined figure. You cannot buy “the quicker Dargo” or “the cheaper-to-run Dargo” inside this model: both would still be 2.0 DCT.

Dimensions and weight: what the extra mass buys you
2.0 DCT kerb: 1700. Gross: 2042. Difference (payload arithmetic): 2042 − 1700 = 342. Ground clearance: 200. Wheels: 235/65 R18 and 235/60 R19.
Weight per horsepower: 1700 / 192 ≈ 8.85 kg per hp (kerb). At gross: 2042 / 192 ≈ 10.64 kg per hp. If the vehicle is loaded to 2042, you add 342 kg on the 1700 kerb figure — 20.1% more mass — while power stays 192 hp.
Clearance 200 with SUV 5-doors is the height number this catalogue gives; there is no alternative Dargo with a different klirens to trade against. Wheel choice is the only dimensional fork inside 2.0 DCT: R18 (235/65) vs R19 (235/60). The data does not attach a different kerb weight, 0–100, or consumption to either size, so treating 18 vs 19 as a performance split would invent numbers. Treat it as a tyre/size choice on the same 2.0 DCT.

Which version to choose
Choose 2.0 DCT if you want the only Haval Dargo in this catalogue: 192 hp, 141 kW, 320 Nm, 1998 cc Gasoline Turbo, Inline 4, 4 valves per cylinder, Front, transverse, Direct injection (direct), compression 12, fuel 92, Robotic 7, FWD, 9 s to 100, 180 top speed, combined 8.3, tank 60, CO₂ 190, Euro 6, kerb 1700, gross 2042, clearance 200.
Do not look for a second version in these data. There is no AWD row, no automatic vs Robotic split, no diesel, no weaker or stronger 2.0 DCT. Two names that look the same do not appear; you do not need power to disambiguate — there is one 2.0 DCT at 192 hp.
What “extra money” would buy on another version is not measured: there is no second price-bearing spec and no second power figure. What a later generation changed vs this one is not measured: pokoleniy is 1.
Practical read of the one set of numbers:
- If you need more than FWD, this catalogue does not list a Dargo that has it.
- If you need more than 192 hp or more than 320 Nm, there is no higher Dargo version here.
- If you need a tank larger than 60 or clearance other than 200, those are not offered as a second row.
- If 9 s and 180 are enough, 2.0 DCT is the match; if not, the comparison is to another model, not to another Dargo in this file.
- If consumption must stay near highway 6.7, that is the listed highway figure for this same 2.0 DCT; city 10.9 is the other end of the same version.
Reliability / problems: not measured in the data. Do not infer them from hp, Euro class, or year.
Bottom line: the Haval Dargo buying choice in this catalogue is binary at model level (take 2.0 DCT or do not), not a comparison of Dargo versions. The numbers that describe that one version are 192 hp, 320 Nm, 1998 cc, Gasoline, Turbo, Robotic 7, FWD, 9 / 180, 10.9 / 6.7 / 8.3, 1700 / 2042, 200, 60, wheels 235/65 R18 and 235/60 R19, in production from 2022-09-01.
