GWM Australia's 2026 Rollout: Nine New Models, an All-New Haval H7 and the Wey Brand All Locked In
GWM Australia locks in its biggest local product plan yet. Nine new or updated models before the end of 2026 across five powertrain types, plus a new premium sub-brand called Wey. The current Haval H7 hybrid gets replaced by an all-new AWD-standard version with hybrid and Hi4 PHEV powertrains and a locking rear diff. The Jolion Max drops in around October in petrol, hybrid, PHEV and EV. The Cannon dual-cab picks up a Hi4-T plug-in hybrid for the first time, the Cannon Alpha and Tank 500 get a new 3.0L turbo-diesel, and a Cannon Alpha XSR off-road grade joins the range. Ora adds another electric model above the $33,990 driveaway Ora 5. Wey debuts with a large luxury PHEV SUV and a plug-in people mover. Sales target lifted to 60,000+ for 2026, top-five brand ambition by end of 2027, dealer network growing from 123 to 135. ANCAP ratings on the new models not yet rated. 7yr/unlimited-km warranty across the passenger range.
2027 GWM Tank 300 Revealed: Bigger Body, 260mm Longer Wheelbase and a 200km-Range Hi4-Z PHEV
GWM reveals the next-generation Tank 300 for China and it has grown up. Length up 126mm to 4,886mm, wheelbase stretched a full 260mm to 3,010mm for more rear-seat and cargo room, with a pushed-forward front axle behind that longer bonnet. And no, that nose is not hiding a V8, it is packaging not power, GWM's V8 plug-in hybrid lives in the bigger Tank 700 and Tank 800. The powertrain headline is a new Hi4-Z plug-in hybrid: a 2.0L turbo petrol four paired with a 59.6kWh battery for a claimed 200km of electric range, a pack bigger than some full EVs carry, which blurs the line into extended-range EV territory. The China range also keeps a 2.0T petrol, a 3.0L V6 petrol and the existing Hi4-T PHEV (37.1kWh, 105km), with a new 3.0L four-cylinder diesel reportedly in development. New roof LiDAR and Tank badging, though the new China cabin may not reach every market. GWM Australia says it sees potential for the Hi4-Z locally but has not confirmed the new car, its timing or pricing. The current Tank 300 stays on sale here from $49,990.
