Great Wall Motors (GWM) has significantly bolstered its Cannon range with the addition of new cab chassis and dual cab models, providing Aussie customers with a wider selection in the ever expanding segement.

Building on the recent unveiling of the Cannon 2.4-litre, the lineup now includes a Premium grade that serves as the entry-level specification for both the Single Cab Chassis (4×2), priced at $35,490, and Dual Cab Utility (4×4), priced at $39,490 with the 2.0-litre powertrain. The Dual Cab Chassis with tray (4×4) is also available in the top-tier Lux variant, priced at $42,490, boasting the larger 2.4-litre engine.

The new 2.0-litre turbo diesel engine, mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, is a carryover from the previous model, but it now delivers a more impressive performance profile and a solid 120kW of power and 400Nm of torque.

The vehicle’s fuel efficiency has been recertified and improved, says GWM, with the Single Cab Chassis now consuming a claimed 7.6L/100km and the Dual Cab coming in at a claimed 8.1L/100km.

The Single Cab Chassis variant of the GWM Cannon has been engineered with an extended wheelbase of 240mm, which not only improves the vehicle’s load distribution and handling but also allows for a more substantial payload capacity of 1150kg. This upgrade is designed to make the Cannon a more attractive option for commercial and fleet operators.

To sweeten the deal, all the new Cannon variants come with GWM Care, which includes a 7-year/unlimited kilometre warranty, five years of roadside assistance, and five years of capped price servicing.
