There's a 'sportier' version of the GWM Ora available on sale (also known as the GWM Good Cat). Paul Maric tests out the 2024 GWM Ora GT to see whether this top-specification version offers enough reason to buy it above and beyond the next level down.

My Mrs bought one - what a surprise package! It's a great little car for around town. And lots of comments from strangers asking what it is? Only had good comments so far. Great car to live with!!

[nickwills]

Whoever at GWM Australia put that front plate on like that needs to be sacked immediately

[geoffreycowl]

It's nice to see a few car makers using some colour initiative on the interior, instead of black. A small bit of colour goes a long way to brighten things up.

[PhilHare-ernr]

What the hell happened to the number plate!

[RechargableBattery]

YOU NEED TO PULL THE CRUISE CONTROL STALK TWICE IN A ROW TO ACTIVATE CRUISE CONTROL WITH STEERING (LANE CENTERING)

[Ash_Simo]

The number plate mounting. “Yew bro”. Bit lazy by them to not screw it in properly.

[AnitaP-peef]

I've had the Ultra for almost 6 months doing mostly city driving and it's great, the only disappointing thing is that unlike os versions there is no app or voice control but other than that it's a great little city car and I don't miss the petrol station stops at all.

Hey Paul, will you be reviewing the Tank 500? I'm really interested in this car and would love to see you opinion on it! And it going through your tests!!

[DeannaVanVelsen-jhys]

We took delivery of the extended range model today. It really suits my size as I am only 155 cm tall and it has more features than my sons MG4. I paid $9000 less for a demo model in Queensland

[dalemcmartin]

I can’t believe I’m saying this Paul, but I actually don’t mind the look of that. Who’d of thought.

[kylestevens]

HI, for lane keeping to work fully you need to set the lane assist in vehicle settings to centering. I've found it to work quite well in highway driving :)

[HarvinderpalkaurGrewal]

4th video of asking, can you pretty please do a review of the GWM Tank 500. You are getting warmer towards the Tank 500 the suspense is killing me!!!😂😂😂

[amon]

$45k now. Love the look of it. At last a car with some character ! 🎉

[wilko]

Number plate at the front looks like doesnt fit in to the holder, look really weird.

[Damian]

Really don't like the look of the normal one but in this spec it's been transformed. Looks really cool! If it had more boot space and started under 50 I'd think about it. Btw great test. Loved the more EV details.

[DMT]

I have a good laugh Paul when you check your sides mirrors changing lanes during the lane keeping test. 😅😅

[MadesonGnac-wcxm]

Massive upvote for a review of the Abarth 695 and 500e, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Stelvio and Tonale. I love your reviews! Would love to see some more brands other than the big names and cheap Chinese cars

[calebedwards]

I'm surprised you're struggling with the lane keeping. I've got the std range, and the lane keeping comes on of its own accord at about 55kmh. Cruise control will maintains lane, speed and distance without any drama even with windy roads (Brisbane western freeway e.g.) and hills (automatic breaking)

[jerrymyahzcat]

Ah the range for the Ora GT is 400km.
The extended range has 420km.
(Even though they share the same battery).
The standard range has the LFP 48kWh battery with 310km range.

[sayyedameerarkhisro]

The lights are actually from the new Mini. They lend it to them in a joint partnership and the electric drivetrain might even be similar in the Mini. The new electric Minis might have borrowed it from GWM Ora
