In addition to the primary role as a utility vehicle, the pickup is ever more often selected as a family car and a weekend trip vehicle.

In keeping with this trend and based on the POER's product position as a global product, GWM will roll out the POER series with automatic transmission edition in international markets.

With automatic transmission and the intelligent safety features, GWM expects the POER model to enter the high-end pickup segment, enriching the firm's product lineup and offering more choices for drivers.

With the aim of providing more options for consumers, the POER series will offer two different exterior styling. Both front face appear with a large grill design with great visual impact, adding a sense of power to the vehicle. The enlarged logo in the middle complements the look from the front, amplifying the sense of prowess and embodying the model with a desirably aggressive feel. The large size grill with a large size badge, together with the bulging muscles on the bonnet and body makes the whole car with aggressiveness and ready to fight nimbly like a Raider. The bulging lines look like the "sinew" in wild predators, injecting life and soul into the body. Car body design adopts a lot of "circle and curve" as basic elements, which symbolize the hidden resilient power in life and nature beauty.
