With sales momentum continuing to grow on GWM Ute, the company is today proud to announce a new range- topping Ute variant in the form of the tough and rugged Cannon-XSR.
Taking the solid foundations of the GWM Ute dual cab platform, the new Cannon-XSR adds a number of key features to boost off-road functionality and design.
A new part-time 4WD system with selectable 2WD and 4WD (High and Low) with front and rear locking differentials has been chosen to provide enhanced operation in tougher off-road conditions.
Crawl Mode and Turn Assist by Braking, unique to the Cannon-XSR, now make their debut on the GWM Ute.
A passive front stabiliser has been added to further enhance handling in the most extreme conditions while an underbody chassis guard and unique fender guards play their part in offering the best possible exterior protection.
Another important part in delivering an improved off-road experience is the combination of a new rugged 18-inch alloy wheel design (finished in black) and mated to a 265/65 R18 All-Terrain tyre.
Red brake calipers add another design cue unique to the Cannon-XSR.
Powertrain remains the same as the rest of the GWM Ute range with a 2.0 litre turbo-diesel engine mated to a ZF 8- speed transmission.
Additional exterior upgrades befitting the Cannon-XSR's range-topping status can also be seen in the new front grille treatment, a sports bar which extends further down the side of the rear tub and the addition of a snorkel.
Front and rear bumpers are both steel to add yet more toughness to the new Cannon-XSR.
A sunroof is now also available and making its Ute debut on the Cannon-XSR so that drivers and passengers are able to add more enjoyment to their outdoor adventures.
