Great Wall Motor Malaysia’s Ora Good Cat isn’t a big name in Malaysia. However in Thailand, the Ora Good Cat is winning over a respectably high number of buyers. In the first half of 2023, before the BYD Dolphin’s Thailand launch in July, GWM Thailand sold 2,600 units of the Ora Good Cat. The battery EV model is GWM Thailand’s best seller. Together with the Haval H6 Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid (2,051 units), plus the Haval Jolion Hybrid (1,571 units), GWM Thailand’s range of xEV-only models netted

The earlier rain settles into a light drizzle, the air is damp and fizzing with the smell of fuel. A procession of cars that took nearly one hour to get on the main straight of the Sepang F1 circuit has led to this moment. Standing almost dead centre of the pack, Mercedes-AMGs stretch as far as the eye can see up and down the road. As the marshalls start counting the number of cars, the final tally stops at a whopping 448 units. The feat, jointly organised by Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (MBM), AMG Cl

Last week, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (MBM) launched the all-new X254-generation 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLC.

In Malaysia, the GLC 300 will be the only available variant and may remain so for the entire product lifecycle. In other markets, the 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLC is available in multiple variants including a mild-hybrid petrol

Thailand buyers seem to be very accepting of the 2022 Ora Good Cat with it netting over 10,000 bookings in just a week. The cool electric cat car is poised to snatch the best-selling EV title in the Kingdom in 2022 from the MG ZS EV but it seems to hit a snag thanks to a selfish war happening thousands of kilometres away. Ora’s parent company, Great Wall Motors (GWM) Thailand has announced on its website that it will be pausing further reservations for the Good Cat indefinitely starting today (2

Great Wall Motors (GWM), the parent company of SUV specialist brand Haval, is now present in Thailand. Great Wall Motors Thailand has taken over the former General Motors plant in Rayong, which used to make the Chevrolet Sonic, Colorado, and Trailblazer. Apart from the Haval H6 SUV, GWM Thailand has also previewed the 2021 Ora Good Cat electric compact hatchback. The purr-fect sounding name is the (literal) English translation of the model's name in China (Haomao) and the kitty theme doesn’t sto
