GWM ORA ORA 03
GWM ORA ORA 03
The GWM ORA ORA 03 costs £9,250 more than the GWM ORA ORA 03. On the headline specs that premium buys little measurable advantage - the two are closely matched on range, charging and space. On EVcarsguide's combined category scores, the GWM ORA ORA 03 comes out ahead overall.
The GWM ORA ORA 03 is £9,250 cheaper to buy. Running costs are almost identical - about £168 a year either way, at 8,000 miles on an off-peak home tariff. Add 5 years of charging and the GWM ORA ORA 03 comes out roughly £9,250 cheaper overall. These figures cover list price and home charging only - insurance, servicing, tyres and depreciation will move the real total.
EVcarsguide estimates a real-world motorway range of about 160 miles for the GWM ORA ORA 03 and 160 miles for the GWM ORA ORA 03 - effectively matched, and both well below their WLTP figures because sustained high speed is the hardest case for an EV. Both rapid-charge to 80% in a similar time, around 43-43 minutes.
The two are within 0 mm on width, so neither is meaningfully easier to thread into a tight space. In a standard 2,400 mm bay that leaves about 575 mm of total clearance for the GWM ORA ORA 03 and about 575 mm of total clearance for the GWM ORA ORA 03.
Over a 8-year ownership window EVcarsguide's degradation model projects roughly 90% battery health for the GWM ORA ORA 03 and 90% for the GWM ORA ORA 03. That is close enough that capacity loss should not decide between them. Both use LFP-type cells, which are happy charged to 100% every day. Both batteries carry a 8-year manufacturer warranty.
