GWM has reduced the price of the Jolion hybrid to under $28k for both private & ABN buyers, the cheapest it has ever been. The price of the petrol Jolion has also been reduced to under $24k after four months. Petrol Jolion offer extended to 31st December.

One of the cheapest brand new hybrid SUVs available with good features for the price and more interior space than other Chinese competitors at this price point. Sporty look compared to the regular petrol Jolion.

$495 for metallic Black, Red, Blue or Grey paint.

    is it woth $4k extra for Hybrid ?? i mean fuel consumption is really 5.1 or 6 or 7 in real world ???

      Yes I own it and is an amazing car. glad I went with the hybrid. spec. I fill a full tank once a month and easily can do upto 900-1000kms per month.

        Yeah about 3000liters+ for 1.899per litre.

        And with that much fuel and 8liter/100km for non hybrids it would take you about ~39500kms

        • mily on 12/09/2025 - 13:26

          Think about the difference in fuel milages, if the hybrid is about 950km per tank like the above comment said, 55L tank get refilled 50L, then it's 5.3L/100km.
          The difference is 2.7L/100km and 3000 liters petrol can keep you run for 111,111 kms before it's even out.

            @mily: Hybrid is much more faster, more refined, accelerates smoother, uses very little physical brakes so no rotor and pad changes for 250,000km or more. Engine is less stressed, gearbox is less stressed so they last forever (At least that is what the data shows for Hybrid assisted cars in the last 3 decades for Toyota Hybrids). The biggest wear and tear on ICE cars is the standing start to 30km/h acceleration. In a Hybrid car, that 0 - 30km/h is almost all the time in electric mode so that is a massive load off the engine and gearbox. When you brake, 90% is regen brakes using the motor instead of physical brakes and the last 10% is physical brakes (unless you stomp on the brakes in an emergency situation than it's 100% physical brakes). Thus brakes and rotors last the lifetime of the car in many situations. There are other benefits to the Hybrid then just fuel savings.

                @netjock: My 12 yo Prius C is on 60% brakes (from original purchase new late 2013) - the Brake mode is how i brake, and foot brakes in a toyota hybrid are just for the final stop or sudden braking Looking to upgrade choices- new Corolla Cross, Yaris Cross, Honda HRV (wrote that off because only tyre repair kit, no temporary spare). Got excited with the Jolion Ulra - well specd - but test drive left me sorely dissapointed, averaging 5.9l for city/hill drive (compared with Yaris cross 3.6l and corolla cross 4.2l) And there is no gear shift, instead some stupid circular know you turn . Also these have a spy cam constantly watching you - with reactionary screen alerts and beeping) no temp spare tyre and a non-intuitive screen operating system. It is very well priced, and they told me a new generation is due mid next year, so they'll be flogging these off . Toyota hybrid is great, but has become way overpriced

        The driving experience in the hybrid is night and day difference, based on a test drive. This May be a consideration besides fuel economy.

          Correct, for the extra $4k it drives better, saves petrol, and has a better resell value - it’s a no brainer!

          You just have to learn to deal with the smaller boot and no spare tyre

          • Danstar on 17/09/2025 - 11:05

            @freeb1e4me: GWM dealer I know told me that resell value on hybrids isn't that great as majority of people don't want to buy a second hand "EV"

            They just buy new or low ball

              @Danstar:

              resell value on hybrids isn't that great …

              There’s a lot wrong with that statement. Firstly, hybrids are not a EV per se. Secondly, hybrids currently have the highest resell value - it fairs better than petrol and full ev (Bev).

              Resell value becomes a mute point if you plan to drive the vehicle to death

              • Danstar on 17/09/2025 - 11:26

                @freeb1e4me: Chinese EV/HEV's

                More so, if you're not planning on keeping the HEv for a long period, the extra cost of the car, versus the savings of fuel won't be gained. Also the resale value won't match the extra cost of the initial purchase.

                • freeb1e4me on 17/09/2025 - 11:31

                  @Danstar: Compare the resell value with the corresponding Chinese petrol vehicle and you will realise what I meant by better resell value

                  Personally, I would just get a Japanese hybrid or a Chinese BEV if you’re looking to drop $40k

                  • Danstar on 17/09/2025 - 11:51

                    @freeb1e4me: I'm just stating what a friend of mine who is a GWM salesperson said.

                    The $4-6kk extra spend on the HEV, doesn't mean you will get $4-6k extra if you sell.

                    Looking at carsales means nothing, majority of people over price their second hand vehicles

      I have a H6 hybrid and drove a petrol H6 as a hire car. Fuel consumption is 5.7L vs 8.7L (suburban driving most of the time). At low to mid speed, the hybrid is much better to drive. I would definitely pay 4k extra for the hybrid if you plan to own it long term.

      On the other hand, if you do mostly freeway / country road driving you probably wouldn't get too much benefit.

      One more thing to consider is the styling. Petrol Jolion has a completely different chassis from the hybrid.

        I drive corolla cross hybrid and can vouch it's amazing fuel economy at highway speeds as well. I get roughly 4L/100 km in urban, and 5L/100 km on highways at 110 km/h. Plus it does 0 to 100 km/h in just over 7 seconds (pretty close to that of model Y). What else would you expect? You got to love hybrids.

          Corolla hybrid's fuel economy is the gold standard and won't be beaten for a while. Shame that Toyota prices (new or used) are through the roof. I couldn't really justify paying like 60k for a rav4.

          • npnp on 12/09/2025 - 15:17

            @MadMaxBargainRoad: It's true, they are expensive. I personally like them so didn't mind paying extra considering the resale value, less depreciation, 10 year warranty, top tier safety ADAS, amazing pick up power etc in mind but if my budget was around 28K, then this GWM would have made a lot of sense.

            @Niaq00: These are real-life figures. Obviously odometer shows a bit less 3.8 L/100 km urban and 4.8 L/100 km highways (not too far off). Funny thing is my small corolla hatchback (also hybrid) gives very similar figures. This shows how Toyota has progressed with their efficient engines. Corolla cross having 2.0 L engine, better performance 7.5S for 0-100 km/h with larger bulkier body, heavier with larger wheels plus tiny little hybrid battery (0.6 kwh) vs Corolla small hatch with 1.8 L engine, smaller aero dynamic body, lighter car with larger hybrid battery (1.6 kwh), pretty much same fuel economy…!! I don't know how they did it but corolla cross is amazingly fuel economical while being larger and faster. Go figure LOL. I love both cars, though.

And I've surprised quite a few model Y drivers off the line (who obviously had no clue of this humble-looking hybrid) LOL.

      I am saving at least $50 a week since I got my hybrid jolion, my old car was a Mazda cx7. I don’t drive on the highway much but I do a lot of driving and if anyone just wants to duck to the shops they always take my car. I was hesitant to buy one but after a few of my neighbours bought them and loved them I decided to buy one, they don’t all have the jolion they mainly have the bigger ones I think H6 (I don’t need the bigger car). The boot is fine, my luggage fits in there and my shopping. Two of my sons who are both over 6 foot have no problems sitting in the back seats. The only problem/ thing I hate is no spare tyre, you get a thing to pump your tyre up and a patch repair kit but no spare. Found out the hard way after running over a vape that exploded and melted my tyre through to the tube.

      I got the H6 ultra hybrid for a $6k premium over the petrol and it's definitely worth it. Fuel wise you are saving about 40% so at 12,000km/year that's $700/year which is a 6 year payback period but the driving experience is so much better. The car is amazingly smooth, it's a gateway car to a fully EV one when they become affordable in the future.

            @Wzzfzz: I was expecting the downvotes though so your comeback is mute, part of the point actually and this reply will also get downvotes cause feelings, badge of honour honestly.

      Basically what all the old people said about Japanese cars back in the day, look at us now.

      Whether you like or dislike Chinese cars, you should appreciate and benefit from the competition they bring, as it pushes other brands to offer better prices and products.

      There is a larger gulf between the portion of people that can afford a car in a city in China (assuming that's where you went in China, because it is MUCH worse in country China) and those that can not. Those that can afford a car in a Chinese city are relatively much wealthier than those than can afford a car in Australia. So a larger portion of Chinese car buyers can afford a higher priced car than those that can in Australia. — edit for reference: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S038611121…

      Around 150 car makers in Japan now (some are joint venture with Euro/Japanese brands) - the market share of Chinese cars has jumped a lot in the last 12 months from 54% to about 65% but I think there is still some prestige to having a "foreign" car, even if it is made in Shanghai
