Common Problems with the
2025 GWM Ora 03 (Funky Cat)

The Ora 03 remained on sale through 2025 in two derivatives: the 48 kWh PURE+ with a 193-mile WLTP range and the 63 kWh PRO+ with 260 miles, following the 2024 rebrand from Funky Cat. UK retests in early 2025 still found the infotainment slow and fussy, Apple CarPlay malfunctioning, the centre-stalk indicators easy to mis-cancel, and lane-keeping and driver-monitoring alerts over-eager, so the car continued to feel unfinished. Real-world range fell well short of the 193-mile claim at motorway speeds and rapid charging was slower than rivals. GWM's dealer network stayed small, so body panels and electronic parts could take weeks to arrive. Depreciation remained steep, making early examples cheap used buys.
