GWM & Haval South Africa — Owner’s Guides

Written and edited by Ethan Cole, Editor-in-Chief · ✓ Technically reviewed by Daniel Wei Chen — Senior Chinese Automotive Diagnostics & Repair Specialist, Sydney · 22 August 2026.

GWM South Africa runs five lines — Haval, Ora, Tank, P-Series and Steed — and one date matters more than any spec sheet: 1 January 2025, when warranties on the volume models jumped from 5 years/100,000 km to 7 years/200,000 km. On the used market, purchase date now decides more than condition does.

Mechanical references (model-level, global)

The Jolion, H6, Ora and Tank 500 here share metal with our global coverage: the Jolion two-engine filter trap · Ora fluids · GWM fault codes (the P-Series shares its diesel DNA with our Cannon DPF documentation). Note: the SA P-Series and AU Cannon are siblings, not twins — market pages stay separate.

ZA recall status: no GWM/Haval entries in the NCC listing at our latest sweep — stated with the caveat that quiet system deserves.
