Malaysia
The Great Wall Haval M4 was launched in Malaysia in July 2014 as the Great Wall M4 with three variants available: Standard, Comfort and Premium. All three variants could be had with either a manual or automatic gearbox.[1] Early models were fully imported from China. Local assembly in Malaysia started in December 2014. The locally assembled models were officially available as of January 2015.[2] In November 2015, the "Elite" add-on kit became available for the Premium variant. Differences included a new design for the halogen projector headlights with LED positioning lamps, a front grille with a hexagonal mesh design, 16-inch alloy wheels with different multi-spoke design, matte black vinyl wrap for the roof and red-black colour combo finish for the leather seats.[3] As of early 2016, the Standard variant was dropped and it was rebranded into the Haval M4.[4] As of early 2017, the manual transmission option was no longer available and the vehicle was again rebranded now into the Haval H1.[5][6]
