    You HAVE to try the pothole mode. It is a full on electronic diffs lock like the Discovery. It senses slip and immediately sends torque to the wheel with traction. Amazing 4x4

      I know but you would think it was labelled Butthole mode since every Aussie reviewer seems to see it, chuckle, then choose some other inappropriate mode, like rock mode when there are no rocks in sight.

    GWM, the real test is after 100,000 km. And when something inevitably goes wrong, how long will it take to get parts. It’s great that you have an open mind on these things, but like all reviews on new cars, it’s the reliability that needs to be proved. I’ll be keeping my N70 Hilux for a while yet. 330,000km and counting. That’s a review ☺️. A good video nun the less. Thanks mate.

      Don't be triggered but the video below shows 7 warranty GWM TANKS are dominating, your old Hilux is no comparison in the real world, keep your Hilux and let other people enjoy their reasonably priced fully equipped TANKS. They will do over 500000kms already proven many years and rigorously tested in China.

      GWM are giving them 7 years unlimited klm warranty, so I suspect they want it to last your 5 years minimal + another 2.
      Read what you want into that but they're here to stay.
      GWM V200 & V240 utes released in Australia far more than 7 years ago, try 15 plus are still being utilised today and yes in the remotest harshest territory we have, outback Norther Territory.
      They just last, against all opinions to the contrary.
      Steeds would be well beyond 7 years old and still going, see examples daily still looking clean, tidy, and some cherished polished examples amongst them.

      The inconsistent throttle response when accelerating is really frustrating. It feels like nothing happens, nothing happens, and then suddenly it takes off. Sport mode is more consistent with throttle response, but sometimes it revs way too hard. I’ve also had issues with the car not turning off correctly. Even after locking it, the fans keep running for 10 minutes or more. Sometimes, when I get back in, there’s no startup sound or animation, almost like the car never fully shut down and stayed on via the battery. It would be great if they could give us a software update - I feel like so many of these issues could easily be fixed that way.
