HYBRID UTE tested!! GWM Cannon Alpha Ultra Hybrid 2024 review (inc off-road, fuel economy test)

This is a SIGNIFICANT moment for the ute market in Australia - the first hybrid pickup truck!
The GWM Cannon Alpha beats Toyota to the punch, and also becomes the first mainstream ute with a petrol-electric powertrain -- well ahead of the planned BYD Shark and Ford Ranger Plug-in Hybrid models which are due soon.
So is this ute the one to buy? Well, I've done a detailed review on the diesel version -- which is cheaper and arguably makes a lot more sense for a tradie ute buyer -- but this really is an important model for GWM as it is the 1st HEV pickup on the market.
In this review you'll find out all about the Cannon Alpha Ultra Hybrid ute, including the pricing specs and features, warranty cover, engine specs, towing and payload capacity, GCM and GVM considerations, and plenty more including a detailed interior breakdown and tub info. I even went off-road in it!!

Thank you I think this was a great review. Some of the others I've read online seems to forget it is only $64 DA (yes, still a lot of money) and not a $85k Ranger/Amarok. I was hoping they would fix the ride quality because that is what annoys me most from my current Cannon Ute. Can probably overlook it if the rest of it is good enough. Would certainly enjoy a nice massage returning from the job site; that would be a happy ending for me .

This is the kind of Ute I want. It’s essentially a top spec car but I can put stuff in the back and go off road when needed. for that fuel economy I would probably look at the diesel version because then I wouldn’t have to get it serviced at the dealership. It was good to see you go through low water/mud at the media event. I also have a lot of soft sand to navigate. Did you get to test it on soft sand?

Is there something that Toyota pumps through their A/c system to achieve these Stockholm Syndrome levels of loyalty. How's the diesel class action going? Reliability and parts availability is important, but it will never be the primary consideration for me, as it seems to be for the Toyota captives (Land Rover driver here - reliability is over rated!).

Great review. I am generally cautious about Chinese owned automative manufacturers, and - usually - I don't see a lot of evidence of innovation or depth of engineering. They tend to look good on the surface, but when you dig deeper.... However..., these GWM Utes have some genuinely innovative features. The hidden storage under the rear seats is a clever idea. The tailgate is interesting. The interior appointments are impressive. The hybrid drivetrain has a lot of potential, although I am disappointed that it is not engineered to maximise economy. Nevertheless, I still think that the Mazda BT50 4x4 XTR 3.0 litre diesel with the manual transmission is better value (although it lacks some gadgets)as it is more economical, has a 1 tonne payload capacity and will probably last longer with better resale value. But this GWM review has certainly given me a change of perspective on the engineering behind GWM.

Hold your horses, young man..... let's revisit this in 2045 and see which one outlasted the other. I am no Toyota Fanboy, yet I have seen Chinese engineering. That's why I buy Japanese.

So you forget how many decades Japanese weee producing crap ? Yet in a few years Chinese car manufactures which there are over 230 in China have come along in leaps and bounds and now are being g used by Kia and Toyota to produce their new vehicles . China produces their own parts like chips and all electronics to keep Costs down and they are also highly competitive with small profit margins but they make up for it in high production rates and high sales.

what about reliability? With the likes of Toyota you know that they will go on for ever, and you pay for it. But with this, what is the assurance? I know that they will have a 7 year warranty. But after that? Probably these Chinese cars are worth 500$. And most 3-4 year old toyota car is in the market at their buying price 3-4 years ago. So, 0$ depreciation in 3-4 years. You drive the 30-60k km for free.

you're too focused on re-sale value. not everyone buys their vehicle to just sell it after 3-4 years. Toyota is dated garbage brought by idiots

There are a lot of points to break down with all the offerings at this price point. Owners would be happy for the first 2 or 3 years, then things are pretty much sure to go downhill

@@bananabear009 Yes..Also spare parts is a big problem for the new chinese brands. I know this from one of my wife’s colleagues at work. They sit in the workshop for a lot of days or weeks if something goes wrong, and the part has to be imported. So, even if you have warranty, you might be without your vehicle for weeks, as it's sitting in the workshop. So, what do you do then? And if you get a faulty car which keeps breaking, and you have the car in the workshop half the time, then what do you do with all the features and the tech?
