The 2026 GWM Cannon Premium is a diesel 4WD ute designed for buyers wanting practical payload capacity and towing ability, with its 3500kg towing limit and 1975kg kerb weight making it suitable for both work and weekend adventures. Its standout strength is the combination of a 5-star ANCAP safety rating and impressive seven-year warranty, offering genuine peace of mind that's rare in the budget ute segment. One thing to consider: with fuel consumption at 8L/100km and estimated annual running costs around $3160, you'll want to calculate whether the lower purchase price offsets higher fuel costs compared to petrol alternatives.

The 2026 GWM Cannon Lux is a compact diesel ute that suits buyers wanting practical 4WD capability without the size or running costs of larger rivals, backed by a reassuring 7-year warranty and 5-star ANCAP rating. Its standout strength is efficiency-the 2.0-litre diesel returns a respectable 8.4L/100km combined, keeping annual running costs around $3283 while delivering 480Nm of torque for genuine work duties and 3500kg towing capacity. One consideration is that at 1998kg, the Cannon Lux sits at the lighter end of the ute spectrum, so you'll want to verify payload capacity matches your typical load requirements before committing.

Its standout strength is the combination of five-star ANCAP safety, a comprehensive seven-year warranty, and modest running costs around $3283 annually, delivering confidence and affordability over the ownership journey. The main consideration is fuel consumption at 8.4L/100km-reasonable for the class but worth factoring into your budget if you regularly cover long distances.

Its standout strength is the combination of five-star ANCAP safety, respectable 8.4L/100km efficiency, and modest ~$3283 annual running costs that keep total cost of ownership competitive in the segment.

The 2026 GWM Cannon XSR is a practical dual-cab ute designed for tradies and families seeking affordable 4WD capability, backed by a lengthy seven-year warranty that sets it apart in a competitive segment. Its 2.4-litre diesel engine delivers respectable torque of 480Nm with a claimed 8.4L/100km consumption and a 3500kg towing capacity. The main consideration is that at 2060kg kerb weight, it's on the heavier side for its class, which combined with running costs around $3591 annually, means fuel economy in real-world conditions may exceed the official figures-particularly for owners doing heavy towing.

Every grade shares a 1,996cc turbo-diesel four making 120kW at 3,600rpm and 400Nm from 1,500 to 2,500rpm, through a ZF eight-speed automatic. This grade is 4X4 and uses 9.4 L/100km combined on the ADR 81/02 test. GWM publishes the full weight set: 1050kg payload, 2100kg kerb, 3150kg GVM and 5555kg GCM, with 3,000kg braked towing and a 300kg towball limit - note that towing 3,000kg leaves you well short of maximum payload once GCM is accounted for. Suspension is double-wishbone front and leaf-sprung rear, with ventilated discs at both ends.

Equipment matches the 4x4 Cannon: 18-inch Premium alloys, manual air conditioning, a 3.5-inch colour cluster, four speakers, a six-way manual driver's seat, a reverse and kerbside camera, and the range-wide safety kit of AEB with pedestrian and cyclist detection, adaptive cruise, lane keeping, lane change assist and traffic sign recognition.
