GWM Australia has confirmed that the Ora 5 ‘Touring’ electric wagon will join the local line up, either late this year or early in 2027.

While technical details remain scarce, GWM Australia confirmed the full-battery electric version of the GMW Ora 5 hatch would joining the local line-up with a 71kWh battery pack.

GWM Australia also confirmed it was looking at introducing a plug-in hybrid version of the Ora 5 Touring but that the initial focus would remain on full EV.

“The vehicle will most likely come, potentially with two powertrains, but certainly EV,” GWM Australia’s chief operating officer, John Kett, told Whichcar by Wheels. “There’a also a plug-in hybrid version that we are still working our way through. So if they were to land, it will be either side of the new year… but it’s definitely going to happen.”

GWM Australia offered a sneak peak of the Ora 5 Touring, although was adamant that any images shown to the media remained ‘off the record’ for now. Our artist’s impression at the top of this story does offer a hint of what the Ora 5 Touring might look like.

What we do know is that the wagon version measures in at 4758mm long, 1833mm wide and 1630mm tall. It will be fitted with a 71.1kWh battery.

That makes it significantly larger than the just-launched Ora 5 small SUV (pictured, above) which stops the tape at 4471mm long, 1833mm wide and 1641mm tall with a 58.3kWh battery pack offering a claimed 435km of range (WLTP).

GWM has also tested the waters with an electric station wagon, taking the covers of its Ora 07 long-roof prototype (above) at the Shanghai Motor Show in 2025. It’s set to launch in its domestic market in the latter half of this year, although there has been no confirmation on whether the 07 Touring is destined for international markets.
