Ora was initially an EV-only sub-brand of GWM, introduced in South Africa with the Ora 3. Now, the sub-brand has pivoted to offer a range of propulsion options. The Ora 5 isn't only available as an EV; you also have an ICE and hybrid version, and there is plenty of good standard spec in this chic, urban-looking package.
