2024 GWM Ora/Good Cat GT (inc 0-100 & braking) review
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.

#gwm #ora #goodcat #review
Whoever at GWM Australia put that front plate on like that needs to be sacked immediately
Whoever ticked off GWM to be sold in Australia needs to be sacked!
My thoughts exactly, zero fucks given for placement.
He had one job ....
That is insane haha
hahaha thats the first thing i thought of when I loaded this video. The front plate looks so stupid
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!!
What the hell happened to the number plate!
@@wcrash9361maybe if GWM employees weren’t preoccupied writing fake comments on KZhead they’d have more time to mount the number plate correctly! 😂😂😂
@wcrash9361 given your recent comments on this video, some might think you’re the one trolling… 🤔
The number plate mounting. “Yew bro”. Bit lazy by them to not screw it in properly.
YOU NEED TO PULL THE CRUISE CONTROL STALK TWICE IN A ROW TO ACTIVATE CRUISE CONTROL WITH STEERING (LANE CENTERING)
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.
That's most probably the only way they're selling these cars. Make them look pretty and the people who know nothing about cars will buy them.
@@wcrash9361 I know they have 4 wheels, a steering wheel and a place where you put oil and petrol in .... what else do I need to know?
@@geoffreycowl I like your thinking! 🤭
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!!
Driving it tomorrow :-)
@CarExpertAus oh fantastic!!! Looking forward to it 😀
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!!!😂😂😂
Filming it tomorrow. Stay tuned!
Make sure you test all the massage modes Paul 🤪
@@CarExpertAus Thanks
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.
I've got a question. Can you use Android Auto on ORA?
I can’t believe I’m saying this Paul, but I actually don’t mind the look of that. Who’d of thought.
Wait until you see it in real life haha
I have a good laugh Paul when you check your sides mirrors changing lanes during the lane keeping test. 😅😅
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
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.
Number plate at the front looks like doesnt fit in to the holder, look really weird.
$45k now. Love the look of it. At last a car with some character ! 🎉
@@wcrash9361I was actually referring to the GT line mate
Thanks
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 :)
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.
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
I hope they don't market this as the "Ora" in Indonesia. "Ora" in Javanese is an impolite word for "No".
Thanks for Indo lesson.😅
So that will be NO with an exclamation mark ❗️ 😊
@@philippicmen7558 Yes. I'm not judging the car, just amused at the name. Perhaps they meant "Aura"?
Maybe comes from Ora Serrata?. Eye anatomy.
Not sure about the name. I think it would have better suited Kia. A Kia Ora, anyone?
Who ever installed that licence plate should be sacked
Been waiting for over a month for a Tank 500 review from CarExpert T_T
Next week
@@CarExpertAus Can’t wait! Thanks
Hopefully you guys will review the Ineos Grenadier soon.
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)
That faux carbon though. What is it contact wrap?
I might be seeing things, but that front end looks a lot like a 991.2 911 GT3...
looks more like a modern VW beetle
That's a weird looking cat
I can't believe no one brought this up. You would need to double tap the ACC stock to activate lane centering.
They seem to be nice appliances
Looks like a mini
50K???? Absolutely not
Bloody hell, $50,000 for that. In that size car, I'd buy an MG3 and have $30,000 left.😊
Exactly right, no Chinese owned & made EV is worth more than 20k
@@mrgarrison3516 Nah they don't price them for racists to buy them. If you insist on paying 30% more for the same that is your business.
@@mrgarrison3516 And that includes Tesler.
To whoever installed the front rego plate, why?
"installed" haha. That's just slapped on with no care in the world
Gwm ora and ora gt available in the trinidad market 🇹🇹
Where's your desert boots Paul?
Waiting for your Tank 500 review, Paul
Driving it tomorrow 3-)
Imagine paying $55k for for this tish-box.
I cant imagine. No matter how hard i try.
Yep, just paying for the badge and name.
and it's a Chinese/owned/made EV for that price 😂
Paying 55k for this is certainly a low testosterone move
This ain’t the 70’s no more when cars where worth my weekly salary lol, welcome to 2024😂
Piano black!
Like a Porsche which shrunk in the wash
46990 D/A...
Gotta hand it to the Chinese, the front looks like a great mix between Porsche 356 and Mini, and the rest of its styling is great. What a shame that it doesn't come in manual with any decent sounding petrol engine. I won't buy it because of that.
Are you going to do a GWM tank 500 review
Driving it today.
Only cat lover’s will buy it 😂
You'll see the pink haired driver through the window tint
Ora GT JCW
Good day
Double tap the stalk towards you. You didn’t turn lane centering on.
Tried that as well
That’s what turns it on mate. Guaranteed. I’ve test driven the thing. The steering wheel goes green when it’s on.
Launch control is slower than just mashing the throttle 😅
Can you also do a review on GWM tank 500
Yep driving it tomorrow. Review live soon.
@@CarExpertAus I just commented about this, thanks.
@CarExpertAus Thank u soo much
Who put the number plate on? he or she needs to go to specsavers.
Paul! Please review the LDV D90! I’m in danger of buying one because of their great value but I need your insight!
Wow. Price is very cheap. Gwm should be able to sell hundreds per month😊
Not gonna lie saw one of these the other day and cause of the front didn’t even know that it was a GW. I thought it was some fat faced Fiat ripoff or something I dunno man all I know is I don’t like it. Also somebody PLEASE fix that number plate it’s doing my head in.😅😂
Anyone else think it looks like a squashed Cayenne?
looks like a chinese copy of a Mini. Oh wait...
Hate cats likewise with this car
Alfa Romeo Mito styling 100% ripped off...zero origniality
Yea bro, everyone knows alpha owns circular headlights 🥴
@@itzdylan6632 I said styling...not headlights, but nice of you to point that out. Oh, I ain't your bro, and it's Alfa, not Alpha. ;)
Is it mini from china? Chini?
G'Day CarExpert people, I'm eager for a review of the GWM Tank 500.
Driving it tomorrow :-)
🐈😺😺🐈😺
Yes, more EV reviews please!
That yellow behind the steering wheel I don’t like looks cheap
Where is tank 500 review?
Driving it tomorrow :-)
if that car had the turbo 4cyl from the Jolion it would be really good! but all electric is hard to want.
Yeah good ey Paul. If you buy this EV now for AUD 39k you will be in shock 5 years later about the resell value of it. Today you pay AUD 39k Five to Eight years later your EV will worth only AUD 3k ! You dont believe me? Go and buy one now and we talk in 5 years time
Front looks like a goofy-ah Fiat and Mini design, rear is like the Panamera and bently
Look like a Chinese Porsche that shrunk
This care needs a serious upgrade. It would have been fine 3 years ago.
The Port of Melbourne replaced their diesel duel cab utes for these things As a friend of a roadside assistance technician for this brand I can tell you that at least 3 separate Oras on the port have left guards stranded with electrical issues. Many more privately owned ones with a host of issues Absolutely woeful cars 👎🏼
pretty piss weak no android auto
Desperate discounted prices only just to sell more garbage EV. What a joke
How desperate are GWM, getting employees to spam comments in these reviews??? Saying that the car is designed by Porsche, BMW shared a platform with the Mini and Ora, Car Exert deliberately placed the number plate incorrectly……😂
Can I work with you
The designer tried its best not to copy Mini Cooper, Porsche 911.
They didn't copy, the Porsche designer designed it.
Slow, heavy for its size and built like S*** all for a measly 51k! The future is bright for motoring in Australia....
Which quality issues annoyed you ?
Omg horrid
🤮
These Chinese vehicles will be worth nothing when/if they make it to 100,000 kms
Ugliest car I’ve seen
Ive been seeing a number of these on the road and wondered wtf they were. Such an ugly ass end on them as well
Can I work under you
I'm quite heavy.
@@CarExpertAus
😡😡 NOT BUYING ELECTRIC EV NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER 😡😡😡😡😡😡
chinese electric car?? omg.. I don't wanna die after I saw a news in China.. terrible accident!!
The only person that wants electric vehicles is Blackout Bowen. Maybe some pronoun Karen's as well. 😂
until you realise they are the best selling car in Australia, and also the world.... so yeh, no one wants them...
@@SydneyEV biased comments from an absolute fan boy keep believing your own lies buddy nobody with a brain believes them
Just announced yesterday, 2023 Peugeot E2008 Gt are $39,990 drive away till June 24. Discount of over 25k. 🫨
Not like they weren't massively overpriced in the first place. They're being dumped for the way better version coming in soon.
$50 grand for a chineese made car? 126 KW, 250 Nm. VW Polo GTI with Twincharger made 132 kw, 250 Nm out of a 1.4 lt engine in 2012 at approximately half this price. This chineese made car is waaaaay overpriced plus what they did recently dropping flare which almost hit Aussie chopper, boycott their overpriced crap products.
Reverse test ❤
