SA car YouTuber shares funny video with Haval and horses

When your car is blessed with more horsepower from real horses...

Sometimes, the ideal content creator moment presents itself – and you’d be a fool not to make the most of it.

That’s exactly what happened to car YouTuber Jonathan Skepe, who struck gold with a picture-perfect shot of his Haval Jolion 1.5T Luxury. 

Whether it was pure chance or a cleverly planned moment, it played out like a scene straight from a Haval commercial.

The humour and timing of the video hit home with viewers, many of whom agreed: this could easily double as a brilliant car ad.

It was great to see GWM jump into the comments section and make the most of the moment, showing up as an engaged, active, and attentive brand.

Since Haval falls under the GWM umbrella, their presence in the comments felt fitting and served as a textbook example of how brands can make a positive impression online, subtly reinforcing their image in the right light.

Even better? Skepe responded to GWM’s comment, creating a feel-good moment of connection between brand and creator.
