Entering the UK market late last year with the GWM ORA Funky Cat, ORA has built a reputation based on distinctive style, high specification, and exceptional value!
Overall, the ORA Funky Cat by GWM ORA achieved an overall test score well above the average for other new and used cars tested by the organization. What’s more, the ORA Funky Cat by GWM ORA has been rated by Which? as the best new electric car for under £35,000.
GWM ORA’s launch model achieved a five-star rating in areas such as driving dynamics, where it was praised for its ‘smoothness of power delivery’. Commenting on the GWM ORA driving experience, Which? reported:
“ORA Funky Cat’s performance is ideal for easy everyday driving. In typical EV fashion, it feels especially spritely at low speeds, and has sufficient reserves for safe overtaking and acceleration even at higher speeds. During cornering, the ORA Funky Cat feels both agile and predictable, and the steering is responsive.”
“We’re absolutely delighted with the rating that ORA Funky Cat achieved as part of the Which? in-depth review. Known as being one of the most credible and trust-worthy sources of information for consumers in the UK, Which? has really shone a light on some of ORA Funky Cat’s most impressive features. It is also testament to the hard work of GWM teams across the board in creating such a highly commended electric car. With this in mind, I look forward to introducing more of our fantastic GWM ORA products to the UK market very soon.”
Which? completed its review of the ORA Funky Cat by GWM ORA, stating:
“ORA Funky Cat is a credible new addition to the UK EV market from a fledgling manufacturer, and a worthy Best Buy model. It will appeal in particular for its nippiness and agility.”
This amazing news has come as GWM has recently announced a strategy update for its automotive subsidiaries across Europe – with its ambition to evolve from ‘house of brands’ to ‘branded house’ architecture.
In the UK market, GWM is going to adopt a phased approach to the implementation of its new brand strategy, focusing upon introducing a new naming convention for GWM ORA products initially. The GWM ORA Funky Cat by GWM ORA, will adopt the new name ‘ORA 03’ from January 2024. Any additional models created by the brand will follow this same approach.
Currently, GWM ORA UK has two models on sale in the UK: GWM ORA, and the newly launched GWM ORA First Edition+, which is limited to just fifty units. As the brand’s second-ever model to go on sale in the UK, the ORA Funky Cat First Edition+ features a very high standard specification that offers fantastic value for money.
