GWM wants to be a top-five auto brand in Australia ‘sustainably'
GWM Australia wants to be a top-five automotive brand in Australia by 2030, and the Chinese automaker says it's planning gradual sales growth to achieve what it calls a 'sustainable' place among the nation's most popular car brands. A record result in the first half of 2025 saw GWM knock off MG Motor Australia as the country's best-selling Chinese brand year-to-date, with 25,189 sales propelling it to seventh place among all brands – its highest position yet. That puts it on track to sell 50,000 vehicles in 2025, which – based on Australia's new-vehicle market in 2024 – would also place it seventh overall for the full year. "Our aspiration this year is 50,000-plus sales and sustainable top five by 2030," said GWM Australia senior product specialist, Timothy Leong, at the launch of the new Haval H6 mid-size SUV in Melbourne earlier this week.

Toyota has been the Australian auto market leader for 22 consecutive years. It sold a record 241,296 veicles in 2024, and is on track for a similar result this year with 120,978 sales to the end of June. Behind it last year was Ford (with 100,170 sales), Mazda (95,987), Kia (81787) and Mitsubishi with 74,547 sales – a figure GWM would need to beat to place fifth, if the market remains the same size this year. "What we say to you about being a top-five brand is really just to avoid, 'When will you be 100,000? Do you think you'd be top two?'," said GWM Australia chief operating officer John Kett. "We keep talking about globally… we want to emerge as a top-three brand, right? So, we know top-five [in Australia] is 75 [thousand sales] and top-three you've got to be 90-plus [thousand sales]. So, it's easy to say 75 so we'll just say top five." Of course, other auto brands also have ambitious sales targets, especially the Chinese ones. BYD became the first Chinese brand to crack the top five with a record of its own in June 2025, selling 8156 vehicles for the month and in the process overtaking Kia (7810) and snapping at the heels of Hyundai (8407). GWM's 5465 sales in June saw it seventh for the month – with the GWM Haval Jolion it best-seller (2000 sold), but year-to-date it remains ahead of a charging BYD by only 1834 sales. Under previous distributor EVDirect – which handed the local business over to BYD on July 1, 2025 – BYD made a bold public goal of beating Toyota to become Australia's best-selling brand by 2030 – meaning more than 200,000 annual sales. Meantime, like GWM, also wants to be a top-three brand by 2030. Mr Kett says GWM is also eyeing a top-three position, but isn't there yet. "We'll talk about top-three when we can prove to you, ourselves, our dealers and our customers, that we're a top-five brand, and that's why we just keep talking about it. "Therefore, getting from 50 to 55 to 60 [thousand] seems easy to some, if you look at the [sales growth] chart, to become a 100,000-unit brand, but we've got a long way to go to prove that. "We've got a portfolio that we think can get us three quarters of the way there – 75 thousand. We feel like we've got a portfolio we can probably push a little bit further, but our brand and our processes and the investments required are those that the constraints we feel like we can control around."

GWM introduces affordable mid-sized SUV
Priced between £23,995 and £29,995, the GWM Haval Jolion Pro comes with lots of standard kit, significantly undercutting several rivals on price. In terms of looks, interior and performance, it's a vehicle that doesn't stand out from the crowd but – equally – isn't particularly offensive on any of those fronts. A hybrid powertrain is the only engine on offer. It features a 147bhp electric motor mated to a naturally-aspirated 1.5-litre petrol engine, which produces a less impressive 94bhp. The GWM Haval Jolion In most circumstances, the two power sources work well together to provide a reasonable amount of punch, although the engine tone can be harsh under heavy acceleration and sometimes feels a little short of breath on long, steep hills. It takes about nine seconds to get from 0-60mph, which sufficiently brisk for a vehicle of this size. The steering is trustworthy but doesn't offer a lot of 'feel', while the ride can feel a bit unsettled over uneven surfaces. In many ways, the Jolion looks more conventional than other Chinese cars on sale in the UK, with styling more akin to some of the European-built SUVs. The front end is dominated by a large grille in which eye-catching silver strips run vertically, while slim LED headlights provide a contemporary look. From the side, the vehicle is a bit anonymous, but the rear has more of a distinctive look thanks to a wrapover 'single eyebrow' LED light bar and a spoiler. The rear end of the GWM The Jolion comes with 17-inch or 18-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, depending on trim level. Inside, the cabin is well laid out and fairly pleasant, with some soft touch surfaces interspersed with harder materials. There's a mix of switchgear and screens. A 7-inch full-colour digital cluster sits alongside an LED multimedia touchscreen, measuring up to 12.3-inches depending on specification. The touchscreen looks very busy and can be tricky to navigate at first, but is largely acceptable once you get accustomed to its quirks. The Jolion has Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability, plus a Bluetooth hands-free system, smart keyless entry, and push-button start. Ultra trim adds a head-up display and wireless phone charger. A lack of DAB radio was one drawback, and there's also no option to have built-in sat-nav. I liked the space in the central console that your phone can slot into in much the same way that bread slots into a toaster, meaning it doesn't move around when you go round corners. The leatherette seats are supple and comfortable, offering plenty of space for front seats occupants, while rear seat passengers also benefit from generous legroom. The spacious cabin isn't replicated in terms of the boot, which has a mere 255 litres of capacity – about 150 litres less than many other hybrid SUVs. The interior of the vehicle Lux trim level also adds heated front seats, while Ultra versions get ventilated front seating. Safety-wise, the vehicle benefits from a comprehensive package of over 100 built-in active and passive cutting-edge safety features, including driver drowsiness protection, brake override system, secondary collision mitigation and automatic rear cross traffic braking. The 360-degree camera on Ultra trim level works well in providing a crisp and clear panoramic view around the car. All-in-all, the Jolion has plus points and minus points, but the price is bound to attract interest. GWM Haval Jolion Pro PERFORMANCE: 0-60mph in 9 seconds ECONOMY: 47mpg and emissions of 133 g/km ENGINE: 1.5-litre petrol engine combined with 147bhp electric motor TRANSMISSION: Automatic PRICE: £23,995 TO £29,995

Telethon Mega Bingo: Mum Tanya Ford picks up keys to ‘life-changing' GWM Haval Jolion prize
Winning a brand new car at Telethon's Mega Bingo had still not sunk in for Tanya Ford as she picked up the keys to her GWM Haval Jolion. The Perth mum was among more than 10,000 participants who descended on the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre on June 14 and 15 for Australia's largest bingo call. Being announced as the winner of a new vehicle was 'life-changing' for Ms Ford after she had to recently sell the family car to pay for her daughter's school fees. Tanya and her partner, Brad, were still in shock as they unveiled their new vehicle, valued at $29,990 drive away, which was kindly donated to the Telethon bingo event by GWM Wanneroo. Ms Ford said her first pitstop was to pick up her daughter from school, which had become a difficult task in recent weeks after the family sold their car. 'Brad was spending four hours a day on public transport to get to work and I felt bad that he was having to do that,' she said. 'This is a life-changing win. The whole family feels incredibly lucky and very grateful. I think this is a shining example of the spirit behind Telethon.' Ms Ford said the fact she won the car at a Telethon fundraising event made the win even more special. 'When Ariana was one she was put into Princess Margaret Hospital and at the time the hospital was full so the only room available was on the oncology ward,' she said. 'We had to walk along that corridor and I remember these rooms full of children that had cancer and I just remember seeing their brave little faces. In that moment, I understood with all of my being why Telethon is so important. 'This win is something I won't forget but the cause behind it is something that will stay with me even more.' More than a quarter of a million dollars was raised for WA's sickest children across the bingo events. All proceeds go towards Telethon to supporting life-changing programs, equipment and services for sick, vulnerable and disadvantaged children across the State. The 2025 Telethon Weekend will be held over October 18 and 19 at RAC Arena.
