Latest Dealer News
The Global Stage: Beijing Auto China 2026
If there was one takeaway from the Beijing Motor Show, it’s that GWM is no longer just “competing” – we’re leading the conversation. With 1,500 global partners on-site, the GWM booth was the heart of the show, centered on the new “Global One” philosophy: building world-class tech that feels localized for every road, especially ours.
Here are the showstoppers we’re still buzzing about:
- The V8 Roar: Proving there is still “no replacement for displacement,” GWM unveiled a monster 4.0L Twin-Turbo Hybrid V8. Designed for the flagship Tank 700 and an upcoming GWM supercar, it’s a masterclass in high-performance engineering.
- Hi4-G (The Diesel Hybrid): This is the one South Africa has been waiting for. This new system solves traditional diesel “lag” and noise while delivering up to 30% better fuel efficiency in tough off-road conditions.
- ORA 5 Versatility: The ORA 5 crossover stole headlines by launching with Petrol, Hybrid, and EV trims in one body style. It’s the ultimate “no-compromise” compact SUV for those not quite ready to go full electric.
GWM Drivetrain: The Power of Choice
At Auto China 2026, GWM unveiled its groundbreaking “All-Powertrain” platform, proving that the future isn’t limited to just one type of engine. GWM is now one of the few global manufacturers successfully mastering four distinct energy paths to suit every driving scenario:
- HEV (Hybrid Electric): The “self-charging” tech we love in our current Haval and Tank models – maximum efficiency with zero range anxiety.
- PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid): The best of both worlds. Featuring the new Hi4-G tech, these vehicles offer pure electric commuting with the long-distance security of a high-efficiency petrol engine.
- BEV (Battery Electric): Led by the ORA brand, GWM is perfecting 100% zero-emission driving with advanced battery safety and rapid-charging tech.
- FCEV (Fuel Cell Electric): The ultimate frontier. GWM is pioneering Hydrogen Fuel Cell technology globally – offering long-range, heavy-duty performance with zero emissions and water as the only exhaust.
Whether it’s the whisper-quiet ORA or a hydrogen-powered future, GWM is ensuring you never have to compromise on power
