## Running Costs in Saudi Arabia
This is where the real savings math happens:
### Insurance (comprehensive, driver age 30+)
- **Haval H6:** 2,800–3,500 SAR/year
- **CS75 Plus:** 2,600–3,200 SAR/year
### Maintenance (first 3 years / 60,000 km)
- **Haval H6:** ~4,200 SAR total (services every 10,000 km)
- **CS75 Plus:** ~3,800 SAR total (services every 10,000 km)
### Fuel (20,000 km/year at 91 octane)
- **Haval H6:** ~5,510 SAR/year (9.5 L/100km × 2.18 SAR/L × 20,000/100)
- **CS75 Plus:** ~3,924 SAR/year (9.0 L/100km × 2.18 SAR/L × 20,000/100)
### Tires (replacement set)

### Total 3-Year Cost of Ownership
- **Haval H6 Supreme:** 84,900 + 9,900 (insurance) + 4,200 (maintenance) + 16,530 (fuel) = **115,530 SAR**

## Resale Value
This is the Haval H6's weak spot. Chinese cars are still building reputation in Saudi Arabia's used car market:
- **Haval H6 depreciation (3 years):** ~45–50% (you lose about 42,000–47,000 SAR)
- **CS75 Plus depreciation (3 years):** ~40–45% (you lose about 32,000–36,000 SAR)
Changan has slightly better resale value due to a larger dealer network and longer market presence in Saudi Arabia.
## Our Verdict
The **Changan CS75 Plus** is the smarter financial choice. It costs less to buy, less to run, and holds its value slightly better. The **Haval H6** is the choice for buyers who prioritize cabin refinement and cargo space.
Both are dramatically cheaper than equivalent Japanese or Korean SUVs. Use farq.com.sa to compare all Chinese car prices in Saudi Arabia.
