| Description |
English: Place: Guangzhou, Guangdong Province
Chinese name: 长城酷熊 (chángchéng kùxióng) Year of launch: 2008 Great Wall was established in 1984 and is China's largest maker of SUVs and pick-ups, selling over a million SUVs each year in the local market, today mostly under the Haval-flag, the Great Wall-badge is now only used for the pick-up Wingle and small sedans (Voleex C30, C50), which will be phased out soon. In 1998 Great Wall already reached top position in the Chinese pick-up market. Great Wall has been infamous for copying lots of models from manufacturers like Toyota (Deer, Sail, Feelfine Concept, Phenom/Voleex C10/C20R, Florid/Haval M4, Cowry/Voleex C80, Coolbear/Haval M2), Isuzu (Sailor, Sing, Pegasus, Hover/Haval H3, Wingle), Honda (Voleex C50), Nissan (Voleex C70, never saw the daylight though) and Fiat (Peri/Haval M1). Great Wall's earliest models include the Deer, Sail, Sailor, Sing and Pegasus. The former two were copies of the Toyota Hilux and 4Runner, while the latter three were all based on the old 1988 Isuzu TF/Faster/Rodeo platform. Great Wall sales really took of after Isuzu Axiom-clone Hover was launched. The Great Wall Coolbear, a copy of the Toyota bB/Scion xB, was launched as a prototype in 2006 together with the Peri (copy of Fiat Panda with Nissan Note look) and Florid (copy of the Toyota ist/Scion xA). The production version was launched in 2008 and it went into production in 2009. Here you can see the making of the Coolbear, with a Scion xB parked next to it in the factory: www.chinacarforums.com/forum/showpost.php?s=09e20d4aa3aa9... A rugged version with side claddings around was launched as Great Wall Hover M3 prototype in 2009 and went into production in the year after as Hover M2. It was renamed Haval M2 in 2011. |
