GWM Ora Lease Deals

GWM Ora is the electric-only brand of Great Wall Motors, and it entered the UK with something unusual: a small, curvy, retro-flavoured hatchback instead of yet another anonymous crossover.

The current GWM Ora line-up we price covers one model in one body style - the Ora 3, a five-seat electric hatchback offered in two trims. Every GWM Ora we can lease is battery-electric, with no petrol, diesel or hybrid alternative.

So choosing an Ora isn't really about picking between cars. It's about picking the trim that carries the equipment you want, then setting a term and annual mileage that match how you actually drive.

About GWM Ora

GWM Ora is the electric car brand within the Great Wall Motors group. In the UK it is known for distinctive styling, a generous standard equipment list and a long warranty: five years with unlimited mileage, which applies across every GWM Ora we price.

Reviewers consistently describe the brand's cars as easy to drive around town, comfortable and better finished inside than the price suggests, while being less convincing on the motorway and short on boot space. Safety is a genuine strength - the Ora 3 holds a five-star Euro NCAP rating.

Our experience of GWM Ora is as a leasing broker rather than a road tester: we arrange the contracts, so what matters to us is the warranty, the servicing pattern and how the paperwork behaves at handover and return.

The GWM Ora range we lease

There is one GWM Ora in the current line-up: the Ora 3 hatchback. It's fully electric, seats five and is offered in two trims, so the decision you make is which trim and which contract, not which model.

Hatchback

The GWM Ora 3 is an electric five-door hatchback for drivers who want an EV with character and a strong safety record. It seats five, measures 4.24m long, carries a 228-litre boot and holds a five-star Euro NCAP rating. Deals start from Price on request a month.

Electric and hybrid GWM Ora models

Every GWM Ora we price is fully electric. There is no petrol, diesel or plug-in hybrid option in the line-up, so if you're moving away from fuel, the Ora 3 is the one decision to make rather than the first of several.

The Ora 3 is a conventional five-seat hatchback shape at 4.24m long, which keeps it manageable in car parks while still giving five belted seats. Its 228-litre boot is modest, so it suits drivers whose load is shopping, a work bag and the occasional weekend case rather than bulky kit.

Why lease a GWM Ora?

Leasing suits a brand like GWM Ora because it separates the car from the risk of owning it. Your rentals are fixed, the manufacturer warranty of five years with unlimited mileage covers the whole contract on normal lease terms, and what the car is worth later is not your problem.

That last point matters with a newer brand. Used values for recent arrivals can be hard to predict, and on a lease the future value is baked into the rental at the start rather than discovered when you sell.

Personal Contract Hire (PCH) - a fixed-term rental with agreed annual mileage - covers road tax for the contract duration, and you can add a maintenance package to bundle servicing and tyres into the monthly figure. At the end, you hand the car back, subject to fair wear and tear.

Which GWM Ora should you choose?

With one model in the line-up, the answer to most questions is the Ora 3 - the question worth asking is whether it fits your life, and which of the two trims you want.

Want something easy to park and live with in town? At 4.24m the Ora 3 is a compact hatchback, and reviewers regularly single out its light steering and low-speed manners as the best part of the car.

Carrying a family? It has five seats, and rear passenger space is usually described as better than the car's size suggests. Check the 228-litre boot against your buggy or your weekly shop before you commit - that's the figure people underestimate.

Moving to electric? The Ora 3 is battery-electric, so there's no engine to service, and business drivers should look at the Benefit in Kind (BIK) treatment of fully electric company cars, which remains far lower than petrol or diesel equivalents.

Worried about safety? It carries a five-star Euro NCAP rating and a five-year, unlimited-mileage manufacturer warranty. If you tow, need seven seats or do big motorway miles every week, honestly, look elsewhere in our range - the Ora 3 isn't built for those jobs.
