GWM Cannon previewed in Malaysia, launching soon?

Great Wall Motor Malaysia has previewed a duo of the upcoming GWM Cannon pickup trucks at the MAS 2023 event happening this week.

We first heard about these trucks sometime in mid-2022 when they were referred to as the Poer P12 for the more passenger-oriented blue version here, and Poer P11 for the white workhorse-oriented truck you see here, but they are now known as the GWM Cannon as it is called in the Australian market.

Under the hood is a 2.0 litre turbodiesel engine that produces 160 hp and 400 Nm of torque, paired to a ZF eight-speed automatic transmission.

The blue truck here (P12) has a bold front grille with a thick frame and horizontal bars in chrome, the P11 sports a “nebula” grille instead. The headlamps on the P11 are also shaped to look like “hawk eyes,” as the company describes them, compared to the more angular look of those on the P12.

Previously, the Poer P12 was advertised with a RM13x,xxx price tag while the Poer P11 was estimated to be priced from RM11x,xxx, but this was a year ago and with currency fluctuations, we wouldn’t hold firm to those previous indicated prices.

      There’s new improved model 2023 Cannon with split rear tailgate design. Bigger and wider size than this model with all-new premium interior, not even Hilux or Ranger can rival such sleek interior. Perhaps Greatwall Malaysia should bring the latest model instead.

      Oh btw even got 6X6 model version (Cannon Cyberpickup) that will eat Ford Raptor for breakfast. Paultan should check it out too! Thanks!

  • I checked. It got Android Auto, Apple CarPlay. Looks like it is only impossible by Geely and Proton. Weirdly, Volvo who is under Geely can even use Android automotive OS.

    At least cannon is a much better name than poen opps poer…

    No one wants to ride a pickup with a name sounded like a vagina.
