HAVAL unveiled various models, including the smart flagship SUV HAVAL Shenshou, HAVAL H6S, and the 3rd Gen HAVAL H6. HAVAL BIG DOG is also eye-catching with its innovative design. It has a square appearance with round headlights that is both stylish and retro. It has both great off-road capabilities and the comfort of an urban SUV. It is equipped with an intelligent all-wheel-drive system, two differential locks, and multiple driving modes such as sand, mud, and snow. It's learned that HAVAL BIG DOG will go on sale in the Middle East by the end of the year.

Before the exhibition, GWM pickup achieved a milestone of global sales of more than 2 million. At the GIAE, Jingangpao, a commercial pickup truck built to global standards, attracted the most attention. It looks very stylish with its sleek lines and cool hubs. It has a length, width and height of 5,635/1,880/1,815 (1,840) mm and a wheelbase of 3,410mm. Equipped with a 2.0T diesel engine, it will achieve a maximum power of 122kW. Another concept car, super pickup, is also attractive. It is inspired by global Lowrider enthusiasts. It is designed in a HellaFlush style to cater to young users. There are also other types of pickup trucks in the exhibition area, showing GWM's diversified design styles.

In addition, the second model of the TANK brand, TANK 500, opened for pre-sale at the GIAE. Models such as ORA Good Cat, ORA Baleimao and WEY Mocha PHEV and Maqiduo PHEV also attracted many visitors.

As Tony Sun, Deputy General Manager of GWM's International Department, said, "The global mainstream consumer groups are gradually dominated by young people, and it's inevitable to satisfy personalized aesthetic needs.
