GWM Ora 03 to spawn SUV as brand's third model

Crossover version of ex-Funky Cat is a "no-brainer" in Europe, says Ora's designer

Chinese brand Ora will launch an SUV to take its lineup to three, as it pushes for a stronger footing in Europe. This model, which will take a numerical name like its 03 and 07 siblings, will be larger than a crossover but smaller than a “full-blooded SUV”, GMW chief designer Andrew Dyson told Autocar. “An SUV is what is missing from the lineup now; it makes it a no-brainer,” said Dyson, confirming prototypes were already in the studio.

“One of the big challenges is how do you make an SUV look different to the competition? Luckily Ora already has an advantage there,” said Dyson. The Brit confirmed it will likely take the form of a raised Ora 03, with a similar egg-shaped silhouette, rounded headlights and minimalistic rear. Given its siblings both use parent company GMW’s LEMON platform, it would make sense that the SUV did the same.
