Wingle 3 (2006–2010)

The Great Wall Wingle 3 (Chinese :长城风骏; pinyin :Chángchéng Fēngjùn), previously the Great Wall Wingle, is a compact pick-up truck built and marketed by the Chinese automaker Great Wall Motors since December 2006. In 2009, it became the first Chinese-made ute or pick-up to be sold in Australia, where it is marketed as the V-Series. [2] It was also made available in Italy, with the model name Steed. [1]

The body shell design heavily resembles earlier Isuzu/GM model which was sold as an Isuzu Rodeo. [3] [4] The steering wheels used in the truck are Toyota designs found in models like the Camry and Sienna.

Australian market

The Australian specification V240 (Wingle 3) came standard with a 2.4-liter four-cylinder petrol engine, producing 100 kW (134 hp) and 200 N⋅m (148 lbf⋅ft) of torque, which was supplied by the SAIC-Mitsubishi joint venture in Shanghai. The diesel engines are of Great Wall design and manufacture. The V240 was specified as standard with alloy wheels, AM/FM CD radio, electric windows, leather trimmed seats, disc/drum brakes and air-conditioning.

Wingle 5 (2010–2021)

A new pick-up named the Wingle 5 was released in March 2010 and the original was renamed Wingle 3. [5] It is available with a new 2L turbodiesel engine developing 105 kW (141 hp) and 305 N⋅m (225 lb⋅ft). [6] It was marketed as the Great Wall Steed in the United Kingdom, with sales beginning in 2012. [7] It was the first Chinese vehicle to be sold in the country. In 2017, the Great Wall Steed was no longer sold in the United Kingdom.

Australian market

In Australia, the Wingle 5 remained marketed as the V240. In 2010, a single-cab model was released which, in the Australian market, replaced the SA220 (Great Wall Sailor). [8] In 2011, the dual-cab V240 was upgraded to the newly released Wingle 5. [9]
