Overview
editThe Great Wall Pao debuted on April 16, 2019 during the 2019 Shanghai Auto Show.[3] The Pao is available in three different versions, including a standard passenger model, an off-road model, and a commercial-oriented model. An electric version was also revealed but was not available at launch.[4] There are many special editions such as tea farm, motorcycle, alloy canopy, black bullet or supercar edition.
The Pao is built on the P71 platform of Great Wall Motors, which also used for the Haval H9 SUV, and is powered by a 2.0 liter turbo inline-4 gasoline engine code named GW4C20B with a maximum output of 197hp. Four wheel drive is optional and the transmission is a 8-speed automatic gearbox or a 6-speed manual gearbox. The standard cargo bed is sized 1520mm by 1520mm by 538mm.[5]

GWM Poer
editIn December 2021, GWM's distributor in Brunei, Berjaya Sdn Bhd launched a version of the Pao Passenger and Commercial being badged as the Poer Ruman and Poer Sucan respectively.[12][13] Poer[14] is a sub-brand which stands for 'Powerful, Off-road, Enjoyable and Reliable',[15] whilst the words Ruman and Sukan are word play from the Malay language, with Ruman deriving from "Rumah", meaning 'house' and Sucan coming from the word 'Sukan' which means sports in Malay.
In Malaysia, Great Wall Motor Sales Malaysia will launch two pick-up trucks under the GWM Poer name, with the Poer P12[1] being a version of the vehicle launched in Australia as the GWM Cannon Ute[16] and the Ruman elsewhere, and the Poer P11 being the Sucan model.[17]
In 16 September 2023, Berjaya Sdn Bhd launched a new version of Poer Ruman called Poer Ruman Ore.[18] Ore stands for Off-Road Edition and is based on China's Pao Off-road edition.
