GWM Cannon Alpha

GWM Cannon Alpha

FROM
$50,490

Introduced in 2022, the GWM Cannon Alpha was a major step up for Chinese automaker Great Wall, who arrived in Australia back in the mid-2000s with the budget-freindly V240 ute.

The GMW Cannon is still very much on the affordable end of the Australia ute segment, though it is proof the brand has matured significantly, offering more tech, a better drivetrain and a sleeker design.

The line-up currently starts at $50,490 for the Cannon Alpha Lux (4X4) and ranges through to $66,990 for the range-topping Cannon Alpha Ultra Phev (4X4).
