Great Wall pickup trucks do have automatic transmission models, with the Great Wall Pao series being the automatic transmission variant. The Great Wall Pao series is the flagship model of Great Wall pickups, built on a new platform and produced at the new Chongqing factory, targeting the international mainstream market. The Great Wall Pao series includes passenger pickups, off-road pickups, and commercial pickups. It is China's first pickup equipped with an 8AT automatic transmission, the first to adopt a multi-link rear suspension, and also the first global large passenger pickup, offering a rich variety of models. The Great Wall Pao series diesel models are powered by the GW4D20M engine, while the gasoline models use the GW4C20B engine. The diesel GW4D20M has a maximum power of 120kW/3600rpm and a peak torque of 400Nm/1500-2500rpm; the gasoline GW4C20 has a maximum power of 140KW/4000-5500rpm and a peak torque of 360Nm/1800-3600rpm. Domestic automatic transmission pickups include Jiangxi Isuzu D-MAX, Jiangxi Isuzu automatic transmission 300t, Wuling micro pickup, Shifeng micro pickup, Haige Longwei, Foton Tunland, SAIC Maxus T60, Great Wall pickup Fengjun 6, and the Great Wall Pao series, among others. Imported automatic transmission pickup models include Toyota Hilux, Tundra, and Nissan Navara. Among them, the Toyota Hilux also comes with a diesel four-wheel-drive version.

Last year when I changed my car, I personally test-drove the automatic transmission version of the Great Wall Pao. It was particularly effortless to drive. When delivering goods in the city, I didn't need to shift gears frequently in traffic jams, my left foot was completely relaxed, and driving fatigue was significantly reduced. On the highway, the power output was smooth, the 6AT transmission responded quickly, and overtaking was not sluggish. In terms of fuel consumption, it was more economical than I expected, consuming less than 10L per 100 kilometers when fully loaded. Maintenance is also simple, with regular servicing costing around 500 yuan each time. There are now more options for Great Wall pickup automatic transmission models, such as the passenger and commercial versions of the Pao, both equipped with automatic transmissions, starting at a very affordable price of 120,000 yuan. I recommend buyers to go to the 4S store for a test drive and choose based on actual needs. For people like me who often travel long distances, automatic transmission is truly a blessing.

Great Wall pickup trucks do indeed come with automatic transmissions. I've used the automatic transmission in their Pao series, which is a 6-speed variant with quite responsive tuning. When driving on construction sites, the hill start assist ensures smooth uphill starts without rolling back, thanks to the well-matched transmission and engine with minimal power loss. The automatic transmission provides stable torque output at low speeds, making it worry-free when hauling heavy loads without stalling. Fuel consumption is well-controlled, averaging around 12L in the city and dropping to 9L on highways. For maintenance, remember to change the transmission fluid regularly, approximately every 60,000 kilometers, to extend its lifespan. Compared to manual transmissions, the automatic version eliminates clutch operation, making it suitable for beginners or those unfamiliar with driving. There are various models available on the market, and it's recommended to choose the configuration based on your intended use.

Great Wall pickup trucks do have automatic transmission models, with the Cannon series primarily promoting automatic transmission variants. I've seen the actual vehicles at the 4S dealership, and they drive much smoother, especially with quick starts at traffic lights and simple operation. In terms of price, automatic transmission models are about 10,000 to 20,000 RMB more expensive than manual ones, but they are much more convenient. The fuel consumption isn't too high, averaging around 11L per 100 kilometers in city driving. Maintenance is also routine, costing about 300 to 500 RMB per service. Overall, they are practical and suitable for daily commuting or light-duty use.
