What We Love About The GWM Tank 500

March 28, 2025 By Rokkit

CMH GWM Pinetown GWM Tank 500

GWM has been at the forefront of bringing luxury features into South Africa at an affordable price – and although the GWM Tank 500 may be their flagship model, this statement still stands strong. Here are some unique features found on the GWM Tank 500 that we love.

CMH GWM Pinetown Sidestep – Retracted and Out

Electronic retractable side steps. The Tank 500 is quite a large SUV which will need a side step, but it’s also a 4×4 which means it will need as much ground clearance as possible. That’s why GWM has masterfully added an electronically retractable side step that automatically comes forward when you open the door.

CMH GWM Pinetown Analogue Clock Below the Infotainment System

A timeless feature in many premium cars is the time itself. The Tank 500 boasts an analogue clock just below the infotainment system, adding a touch of elegance to the interior.

CMH GWM Pinetown Interior Features

There is so much more to love about the GWM Tank 500, such as the rear air conditioning controls, the extended sunroof, and electric foldable rear seats.

Choosing the right car insurance coverage is crucial for protecting yourself and your vehicle on the road. With the myriad of options available, navigating through them can be overwhelming. This guide is meant to make things easier for you and assist you in determining which coverage best fits your needs and price range.

  • Assess Your Needs: Analyse your driving patterns: Take into account the number of times you drive, the distance you go, and the kinds of roads you usually utilise.
  • Understand your vehicle: Your car’s age, value, make, and model are just a few of the variables that may affect the kind of coverage you require.
  • Determine your risk tolerance: Determine the level of risk you are ready to take on in the event of an accident or other unanticipated circumstances.

Understand the Types of Coverage:

  • Liability Insurance: shields you against monetary loss in the event that you’re accountable for another person’s harm or property damage.
  • Collision Coverage: covers car damage in the event of an accident, no matter who is at fault.
  • Comprehensive Coverage: offers defence against non-collision events like theft, damage, and natural calamities.

Compare Quotes from Multiple Providers:

  • Think on aspects other than cost, like customer support, the track record of managing claims, and any available discounts.
  • Get quotes from three or more insurance providers to be sure you’re getting the greatest deal on the most appropriate policy.

Review and Adjust Regularly:

  • Check your insurance policy on a regular basis to make sure it still suits your needs, especially after major life events such as buying a new car, moving to a new location, or getting married.
  • As necessary, raise or lower your deductible and coverage limits to ensure you have enough protection at a reasonable price.

It’s important to carefully evaluate your driving style, budget, and unique demands when choosing the appropriate auto insurance. You can make sure you have the protection you need without spending more than required by evaluating your needs, comprehending the different kinds of coverage available, comparing quotes from several providers, and routinely reviewing your policy.

ONE GWM ON FULL DISPLAY IN BEIJING

May 8, 2024 By Rokkit

GWM is making a big impression at this year’s Beijing International Automotive Exhibition.

Being the largest automotive exhibition globally, the show reflects China’s position as the largest vehicle market and a technological leader in the automotive industry.

Among the stars of the Beijing show, also known as Auto China, is GWM. As one of China’s oldest vehicle manufacturers, GWM is recognized as one of the brands that brought Chinese vehicle manufacturing to the global stage. GWM has been selling its vehicles in markets such as the Middle East and South America since the early nineties.

For the 2024 Auto China show, GWM has been given a substantial space that brings together all five of its distinctive vehicle brands. This aligns perfectly with the group’s ONE GWM strategy, which aims to celebrate the unique characteristics and capabilities of each brand while demonstrating pride in the overarching GWM brand.

In the past, GWM allowed its various brands to design and manage their own display spaces, spread across the show’s extensive grounds. Now, the globally recognized brands P-SERIES, ORA, HAVAL, TANK, and WEY will stand together, showcasing GWM’s significant technological capabilities.

Under the slogan “Go long. Go with love from the world,” GWM celebrates this unique combination of brands under its umbrella.

For the South African contingent attending the Beijing Show, all the brands, except WEY, are familiar. WEY is the premium brand in the GWM stable and a popular range in some of the world’s most demanding vehicle markets, including Germany and China.

At the Beijing Show, GWM will present the latest generation of WEY models. These models, such as the WEY 05, have redefined what is possible in a plug-in hybrid vehicle. In Europe, this model offers close to 150 km of electric-only range with a combined power output of 350 kW from its electric and turbo-petrol powertrain.

“There is global recognition of the GWM brand from customers and corporations such as Forbes, which named GWM as one of its Top 30 Global Pioneer Brands.

Another anticipated model at Auto China is the Tank 700. Following closely in the tracks of the Tank 500, which will be introduced to South Africa later this year, the Tank 700 introduces several technologies not seen before in an off-road vehicle. This includes 12 different terrain modes, an intelligent, adaptable hybrid powertrain, and a super-luxurious interior featuring a flagship-worthy 16-speaker Harmann Kardon sound system, facial recognition, and some of the largest screens on a production vehicle.

At a higher level, the show will showcase the different technologies and advancements of the GWM group. This includes the GWM New Ecosystem, an engineering platform and design philosophy that will see different brands lead in various areas of technology, luxury, performance, and off-road capabilities, and then share those insights with other brands for them to incorporate into their vehicle development process and brand philosophy.

For instance, TANK has led the way in off-road technologies and unique approaches to off-road vehicle dynamics. The Tank Turn switch, which allows the vehicle to turn on a central axis in the smallest space possible, is one such technology. Much of this will be implemented in the new HAVAL models as well as the P-SERIES P500, expected in South Africa this year.

Auto China will run from April 25 to May 5. GWM will unveil a range of new products and technologies during this time. For more information, follow GWM South Africa on social media.

GWM ORA 03 – SOUTH AFRICA’S BARGAIN OF THE YEAR!

May 8, 2024 By Rokkit

South Africa’s newest vehicle brand has quickly established itself as the country’s top choice for value.

At the inaugural TopGear South Africa Awards, the GWM ORA 03 was honored as the Bargain of the Year by Top Gear South Africa. The event, held last week at the luxurious Steyn City Helistop in Johannesburg, saw representatives from across the automotive industry in attendance, with 24 awards presented to various vehicle brands and industry representatives.

“It was a pleasant surprise to receive the Bargain of the Year award,” says Bianca van Staden, Head of Marketing for GWM South Africa and its all-electric sub-brand, ORA. “This recognition is fantastic for the GWM ORA team, who have worked tirelessly over the past year to introduce this all-electric brand at the best possible price.”

The GWM ORA 03, introduced to South Africa in November of this year, immediately claimed the title of South Africa’s most affordable electric vehicle. Not only does it offer the best entry price, but it also boasts a range nearly double that of its closest competitor.

“With ORA, the engineers at GWM had a completely blank slate. They redesigned the vehicle to offer not only the best possible purchase price but also to deliver a great driving experience, the best range in its class, and a host of features,” explains van Staden.

This winning combination of impressive range, performance, and affordability caught the attention of the TopGear judges who selected the ORA from among thousands of other models and ranges on the South African market.

“While the GWM ORA may not be the most affordable vehicle in South Africa, it is certainly the most affordable EV. Its introduction has significantly shifted the market for EVs, making this new technology accessible to many more South African motorists,” adds Avon Middleton, Publishing Partner of Top Gear South Africa.

The acclaim received by Middleton and his team echoes that of esteemed publications worldwide.

In the United Kingdom, a notoriously demanding market, the ORA was named the Which? Car Best Buy in the Medium-sized Car Category. Judges praised the ORA for not only being the most affordable EV on the market but also for introducing a range of safety and luxury features previously unseen in this segment.

Continuing in Europe, the ORA was awarded the title of safest five-star rated car in its class by the European New Car Assessment Programme. This accolade is particularly significant as ENCAP is widely regarded as the strictest crash test award of its kind globally, applying rigorous battery safety tests to electric vehicles.

A few months later, the GWM ORA 03 won the Green NCAP Life Cycle Assessment Award in Europe. This award evaluates the environmental impact of a vehicle from its design and manufacturing stage through its useful life cycle and eventual recycling. Out of the four vehicles awarded a five-star rating, the GWM ORA 03 was certified for its low environmental impact and responsible engineering, considering its carbon footprint and environmental impact at every stage of its life cycle.

Considering a rate of around R3.50 per kWh for AC home charging, it will cost an owner approximately R170 to R250 to fully charge their GWM ORA 03. Using DC fast charging at a rate of R5.00 to R5.80 per kWh, the cost for a full charge will be around R250 to R300.

“Many of these awards are typically given to more established and far more expensive electric vehicles. For the GWM ORA 03 to win recognition for its engineering, environmentally friendly design, and value for money, while being the most affordable electric vehicle on the market, is an achievement of which we are extremely proud,” says van Staden.

The GWM ORA 03 is available in South Africa starting from R686,950. There are four models available, starting with the ORA 03 Super Luxury. All models come with a GMW connectiveCARE charging system for easy at-home charging, a 7-year/200,000 km vehicle warranty, and an even more impressive 8-year/150,000 km warranty on high-voltage parts. Additionally, all models, regardless of price, include a full 7-year/105,000 km service plan and an unlimited kilometer/7-year roadside assistance plan.

ORA 03 BOUND TO IMPRESS AT SA CAR OF THE YEAR

May 8, 2024 By Rokkit

South Africa’s most budget-friendly electric car, the GWM ORA 03, stands as a top contender for the title of Car of the Year. Selected as a finalist in the 2024 South African Car of the Year awards, hosted and adjudicated by the Guild of Mobility Journalists, the GWM ORA 03 competes in the Family category, alongside the BMW X1, among 18 other finalists.

Bianca van Staden, Head of Marketing, Brand, and Public Relations at GWM South Africa, expresses her pride in the ORA 03’s recognition: “We are very proud of the fact that the GWM ORA 03 was picked as a finalist in the SA Car of the Year awards and that it competes in a ‘traditional’ category for family vehicles.”

Van Staden highlights that although the ORA 03 made headlines as South Africa’s most affordable electric vehicle, it has been predominantly compared to traditional city and family vehicles rather than solely electric vehicles.

Supporting this statement, Van Staden mentions several awards the GWM ORA 03 has won, including being named Which? Magazine’s Best Buy in the medium-sized car category and winning the Best Urban Car for 2023 by Driving Electric. Additionally, it received top marks in the environmentally friendly life-cycle assessment test by the European Green New Car Assessment Programme (Green NCAP) and was recognized as the safest car in its class by Euro NCAP and Australasian NCAP.

In South Africa, the GWM ORA 03 is also contending for the top spot in the category of affordable electric vehicles in the Cars.co.za Consumer Awards. It has already been awarded Bargain of the Year in the Top Gear South Africa Awards in December 2023.

Van Staden concludes, “While the GWM ORA 03 is a pioneer in the market for affordable, innovative, and stylish electric vehicles, it is also a sound choice for most traditional vehicle buyers in its price range. That makes the ORA the first true crossover vehicle between traditional motoring and new electric vehicles.”

To summarize the features of the GWM ORA 03: priced at less than R700,000 for the entry-level model, it is the most affordable electric vehicle in South Africa. Launched in late 2023, it won the hearts of the SAGMJ judges in less than four months.

As a family car, the GWM ORA 03 delivers on all fronts. Weighing only 1,555 kg, it accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 8.5 seconds and reaches a top speed of just under 160 km/h. Powered by a 48 kWh lithium-ion phosphate battery, the standard-range 300 Super Luxury GWM ORA 03 boasts an average electric consumption figure of 16.7 kWh/100 km, offering a range of up to 310 km (WLTP cycle), making it the best range-per-rand of any EV in South Africa.

Inside, the GWM ORA 03 features two 10.25-inch touchscreens (instrument cluster and touchscreen infotainment system) integrated into the front panel, with every function just a fingertip away. Additionally, it offers a rotary-style gear selector and up to 228 liters of luggage space. To further facilitate EV ownership, 20 dedicated ORA dealers nationwide offer GWM 7kW home-charging wall box solutions.

“With its inclusion in both the SAGMJ Car of the Year and Cars.co.za Consumer Awards, we believe that the GWM ORA 03 will capture the hearts of fans of cutting-edge technology and traditional motoring alike,” says Van Staden.

“We believe that as a family vehicle, the GWM ORA 03 is without comparison, and we are confident that it will impress the judges of both competitions and motorists across South Africa,” she concludes.
