The Great Wall Cannon is equipped with four-wheel drive, featuring a front-engine, four-wheel-drive layout. As a pickup truck, taking the 2020 Great Wall Cannon model as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5437 mm, width 1958 mm, height 1893 mm, with a wheelbase of 3230 mm and a fuel tank capacity of 80 liters. The 2020 Great Wall Cannon is powered by a 2.0T turbocharged inline 4-cylinder engine, delivering a maximum power of 140 kW at 4000 to 5500 rpm and a maximum torque of 360 Nm at 1800 to 3600 rpm, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission.

I've been driving a Great Wall Pao pickup for several years, and indeed some models come with four-wheel drive, which is quite practical. For example, mine is the four-wheel-drive version. I usually use rear-wheel drive in the city to save fuel, but when it comes to rainy, snowy, or muddy roads, turning on the four-wheel drive immediately makes it much more stable. I remember one winter when I was hauling goods up a steep slope, the ice was extremely slippery, and it was only thanks to the four-wheel drive that I didn't skid. The system is an intelligent on-demand four-wheel drive that can automatically switch between high and low-speed modes, making it suitable for various terrains. Note that not all models come with this feature—basic versions are two-wheel drive, while higher trims have it as standard. I recommend asking the salesperson or test-driving before buying. Don’t just focus on the slightly higher price; the improved safety and off-road capability are worth it. Long-term maintenance is simple—just regular oil changes are needed.

I work at an auto repair shop and often encounter Great Wall Pao owners asking this question. The answer is yes, there is a 4WD version available. The system typically uses BorgWarner's on-demand four-wheel drive, with power distribution controlled electronically. Common issues include sensor dust buildup or transfer case wear causing sluggishness, requiring timely cleaning or part replacement. For maintenance, it's recommended to check the differential oil annually to prevent water ingress and extend lifespan. In daily driving, 4WD provides excellent anti-slip performance on snow or mountain roads, but 2WD is more economical for city use. For example, a regular customer's 4WD proved invaluable when towing heavy loads, far more reliable than relying solely on rear wheels. Overall, it offers good value for money, but choose based on actual needs to avoid overspending on rarely used scenarios.

As an off-road enthusiast, I love taking my pickup truck on adventures, and the Great Wall Pao's 4WD version performs exceptionally well in the wild! It comes equipped with a high-low range 4WD system, offering strong grip in mud pits or sandy terrain, with climbing capabilities that rival big-name brands. I've participated in rallies, easily navigating rough terrain with it. The power distribution is intelligent, and it's fuel-efficient on regular roads. If you're into off-roading, choosing the 4WD version is a must—it's safe and thrilling. Don't just go for the cheaper city-spec 2WD; 4WD can save you from getting stuck during outdoor activities. Remember to opt for the higher trim and add an underbody guard for extra durability.
