2024 GWM Cannon Alpha on/off-road (inc. 0-100) review

No V6 for the Nanny state 😅

It is quite misleading to say that the max speed is 130 KM in Australia when that speed is only in one area in Australia in most other places it is either 100 KM or 110 KM

Dammit... I came here pretty conviced this would be my next car but those performance figures on a virtually empty ute are atrocious. 0-100 in 13s and 80-120 in 11secs are borderline dangerous numbers on a vehicle that is allowed to tow 3500kgs. I seriously hope they have a V6 TTD under development cause the hybrid really doesn't interest me.

I love the interior. If I had the money, it would buy it def because it is the only hybrid ute available. However I would be seeking a custom grill because the giant logo is disgusting lol

if they got rid of the ugly badge front and rear then they might sell more, very ugly

Pile of junk on four wheels.

Please. Do review. on On the. Hybrid version !! If you can please. !! 🙏

I've seen these carrying military UAVs in parades. Thats another thing it'll do.

Cyclist detection is a no sale from me

Tundra looking much?

Does the 2.4 diesel engine have a timing chain ?

As someone that doesn't know all that much about the specifics of cars and the engineering, what determines that the payload would be lower or higher? Why are the latest GWM models lacking the payload of the others?

Nice, don't like all the electronic buttons though. More stuff to fuse

I want one!!

Its not worth it for buying them.

"Visibility out the back is good" - no it isn't. I took one of these for a drive last week and between the pointless sliding back window and the headrest for the rear middle seat, the view is obstructed.

As far as performance goes, yeah, I also found the 2.4 diesel very lacking. However, I took the hybrid for a drive and it is a completely different beast - it has way more grunt and is the better vehicle.

Looks like a great ute, would like to see you do a review on your channel on the alpha hybrid. And BYD Shark? I would take either of them 2 over a Ranger or Hilux any day.

It have very high comsumption

fck Toyota who cares about brand just give us what we really need and cheap price with quality.

Porqué tienen el volante al revés ?????

Dude. That Ute is amazing. You have a negative bias. You keep using words like “actually not bad” etc. compared to the extremely crap Toyota and ford interiors. Over priced etc. Toyota gives you almost nothing for your money. Rough as guts. Shit spartan interior, I can go on. Please stop putting the new Utes down. They rock.

For reference btw. I live 1000kms inland from Brisbane. Had a ranger. 80000 kms. Uncomfortable. Poor tech. Capable car but traded it for the “must have Toyota”. Worst Ute ever. Small spartan interior- I’m 6ft4. Rough as guts. Pig of a thing on our crap outback roads. Two alternator failures and a suspension issue. 135000kms, hate that Ute. Bought new Cannon alpha lux. Steady work horse. Lots of space. More tec and comfort than a 200 series. Honestly the hype a round Toyota and ford is bull. They are going to go the same way as the land-rover in Australia. Not to long ago we talked about “jap crap”. Unacceptable-yes but true. Back then they gave us more reliability and more value.. now they are taking us for granted and over charging us. Basically trading on the brand name. GWM is the new “Toyota”. Sorry boys- may not be a popular perspective but it’s the truth. You know the old saying… if you want to go to the outback take a landrover. If you want to get back take a Toyota. Well we can now add… if you want to get there and back with your spine intact… take a Cannon Alpha… don’t shoot the messenger…

It verily n😊😊😮😅😊

Sanctions can do wonders to a dedicated country 🤔

I actually only come in to read the comments. I didn’t even listen to Paul’s comment. G, you can really see some interesting people here. Smart ones, open minded ones, of course stubborn and ——ones. I’m not sure whether by reading the comments will help me to read my clients’ minds at work.

Ordered one today 👌

I grew up with a tv in the living room that was slightly bigger than the one in this cab...

Can you review the cannon hybrid?😊

Read all of this and see why not to by any P-series. With the other P-series not getting any software upgrades to fix all the problems, i.e Lane assist breaking through solid white and yellow lines, Lane assist pulling you far to the left to danger close levels next to trucks in the left lane, you have to disable lane assist everytime you switchthe car on, "Turbo lag" which is actually accelerator delay 2-3 seconds, Cruise control can't pickup speed on slightly elevated hills, Voice activation system engages without command given, Climate control changes from cold to hot and from hit to cold without human selection, false tyre presure alarms. the dash screens can be properly dimmed at night...... the list goes on.
You will see that within 6 months, they will offer discounts from 10k-20k because the sales are going to be sooooo bad. How can a company not update their problems on a car and then think people are going to buy another later "better" version. Unfortunately, I bought the P-series LT for my wife, and it is not a bakkie for a farm. You need a kidney belt with that suspension.

Just watching at the 6min and wow didnt know that the back could open up like a door - pretty cool!!

Upgraded engine doing very little to help performance. Price is to high for reliability issues and resale value loss. Car is good looking. No lifting seats at the back a big loss from cannon X. DPF issues still a pain .

Gerry Road

What size engine, didn't mention it?

And the rear seats recline also

When driving the 2022 modal, one has to manually close the lane departure evetytime you embark on a new trip.
Does this one shut this out indefinitely until a driver requires it again?
