2023 GWM Ora (Funky Cat) EV Price and Specifications

The 2023 GWM Ora electric car, previously known as the GWM Good Cat or Funky Cat, will be called the GWM ORA EV when it arrives in Australian showrooms.

This change in name is fortunate, as the car’s significance as a competitor in the growing EV city car market would have been hindered by a nonsensical name. The GWM ORA EV is the car that GWM intends to use to take on electric vehicle versions of popular brands like MG and BYD, among others. The EV city car market is expected to experience significant growth in the near future.
