The ORA series of products, including ORA 03, ORA 03 GT, and ORA 07, are high-quality automotive products that we have carefully crafted for Thai customers. They have a unique design style, integrate cutting-edge technology, and are environmentally friendly. The signing of the EV 3.5 policy marks GWM as one of the first electric vehicle brands to cooperate with the government. Our goal is aligning with the government's willingness to support the flourishing development of electric vehicles and their industrial ecology in Thailand, and it’s consistent with the vision of building Thailand into a regional electric vehicle manufacturing center. Since entering the market, we have actively supported various government policies and were one of the first brands to sign and participate in the EV 3.0 policy. We will continue to provide full support for the EV 3.5 policy and continue to promote the high-performance sports electric sedan ORA 07, which will be released at the 40th Auto Expo in November 2023. We promise that both models of ORA 07 actively participate in the EV 3.5 policy will not announce any retail price adjustments. We assure all Thai customers that the prices we set are reasonable and truly reflect the actual value they receive, whether they are regular or new customers.

According to EV 3.5 policy, ORA 07 will maintain its current pricing without any adjustments. After signing, GWM will continue to deliver ORA 07 to Thai consumers.
