Ora’s new VW Beetle lookalike goes by the name Ora Punk Cat 01

Great Wall’s electric vehicle (EV) brand, Ora, stirred the crowd up with a teaser of a new EV that largely resembles the classic Volkswagen Beetle. Along with the teaser they also invited the public to join a voting campaign to decide the name of the car. Now the name has been unveiled to be the Ora Punk Cat.

In case you missed it, the Punk Cat is targeted at women and Ora is marketing it as a ‘time machine’ back to the retro era.

The car in the photo features a 3-tone paint job in a pastel green that gives us serious retro ‘60s vibes while the interior looks like it was directly plucked from an ‘60s Beetle.

We like the oriental touch

If it wasn’t for the large touchscreen on the centre dash, you would easily mistake the interior for an old car rather than a car produced in 2021!

There isn’t a time in memory that doesn’t involve staring at cars. After discovering the excitement of watching Schumacher vs Hakkinen, Formula 1 became a major part of life. The love for cars and F1 ultimately led to a job with CAR Magazine. The untimely death of the magazine meant a hiatus from cars at lifestyle women’s magazine Marie Claire before another opportunity came knocking again.
