GWM has ditched the confusing “Ute” nomenclature for its next-generation dual-cab, simply calling it the GWM Cannon from 2025.
Roughly priced between $40,000 and $50,000, the four-tier range consists of the base-spec Lux, the Ultra, the Vanta, and the top-spec XSR. All variants are equipped with a 2.4-litre turbo-diesel engine producing 135kW and 480Nm, running through a nine-speed automatic transmission
Pros
- Improved driveline for MY25
- Neat-looking, simple dash
- Great bang for buck
Cons
- Annoying lane keeping assist
- Lack of simple controls for features like audio and cabin temp
- Firm ride when unladen
