2 Answers
Great Wall Pao series is the flagship model under Great Wall Pickup, making its debut at the Shanghai Auto Show on April 16, 2019. As a brand-new product series, it is built on an all-new platform and manufactured at the new Chongqing factory, targeting the international mainstream market. It is equipped with various practical features such as an intelligent connectivity system, one-key start, keyless entry, electric sunroof, seat heating, vehicle stability system, brake assist, and cruise control. In addition to the Great Wall Pao, other common models under Great Wall Pickup include Sanba Suo, passenger pickup, wading snorkel, and commercial pickup. The new brand logo of Great Wall Pao resembles a location icon on a map at first glance. However, the official introduction states that it is derived from the first letter 'P' of three English words: POWER, PK, and PERFECT. POWER (strength and capability), PK (challenge and innovation), and PERFECT (perfection and ultimate lifestyle) are the three key meanings of the Great Wall Pao brand, symbolizing the brand's pursuit of spiritual connotation and representing the elite group who yearn for freedom, fear no challenges, pursue perfection, and embody distinct characteristics of the times. On April 16, the 2019 Shanghai International Auto Show opened, and China's first passenger-oriented large pickup—the Great Wall Pao series—made its global debut. The dimensions of the Great Wall Pao are 5489 mm in length, 2084 mm in width, 1920 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3230 mm. In terms of power, the Great Wall Pao is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 140 kW and a maximum torque of 360 Nm.
As someone quite interested in automotive history, let me talk about the Great Wall Cannon, a pickup truck model developed by Great Wall Motors. Headquartered in Baoding, Hebei, Great Wall Motors started in the 1980s, initially focusing on light trucks before expanding into SUVs and pickups. The launch of the Great Wall Cannon in 2019 quickly made it a hit. This vehicle comes in several versions: the Passenger Cannon is suitable for family use, the Off-Road Cannon targets enthusiasts, and the Commercial Cannon is practical for work. Its design is rugged and sturdy, typically equipped with a 2.0T diesel or gasoline engine that delivers strong performance without being fuel-thirsty. Priced reasonably, it enjoys high domestic sales and is also exported worldwide. The brand leads among domestic manufacturers with reliable quality. Having visited the factory, I feel it has transformed the traditional image of pickups from mere utility vehicles to great companions for life.
