GWM Philippines has officially launched the Haval H9 in Cagayan de Oro, marking the arrival of its premium seven-seater diesel SUV in Mindanao.
Held at Limketkai Mall on February 18, 2026, the launch was staged in partnership with authorized dealer Otto Motto Mobility Inc., underscoring the brand’s push to strengthen its presence in the southern Philippines and bring the GWM Haval H9 closer to buyers in Cagayan de Oro and nearby provinces.
Positioned as a full-size SUV for families and adventure-oriented motorists, the GWM Haval H9 pairs refined design with rugged underpinnings. It is powered by a diesel engine mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission, a combination aimed at delivering strong torque and smooth power delivery for both city use and long-distance travel.

The SUV also features a ladder-frame chassis and an advanced suspension system, giving it the durability and stability needed for varied road conditions across Mindanao. GWM said the model embodies its focus on world-class engineering, modern technology, and long-term value for Filipino motorists.
The Cagayan de Oro debut also highlights GWM’s expansion beyond Metro Manila, with the new dealership expected to serve customers across Northern Mindanao.
“With the launch of the GWM Haval H9 in Cagayan de Oro, we are proud to officially bring this premium 7-seater diesel SUV to Mindanao. This milestone reflects our commitment to expanding our reach and delivering globally competitive vehicles to more Filipino families across the country,” said Dax Avenido, Brand Head of GWM Philippines.
