Ora Good Cat

This is the catalogue record of the Ora Good Cat, one of 31 models Great Wall Motor has placed in the historical record and one of more than seventeen thousand cars the MotorJury library tracks. The record places its introduction in 2020. The photography on this page is hotlinked from Wikimedia Commons under an open licence, with the photographer credited on every frame.

The era it was born into

To read the Ora Good Cat properly it helps to place it in its decade. The 2020s were the current era, in which battery-electric platforms, software-defined cars and China's rise as the world's largest producer are rewriting a century of industry order. Any car launched into that world was shaped by it — by what materials, engineering and regulation allowed, and by what buyers of the day demanded. Its direct contemporaries in this catalogue, introduced within three years of it, include the Tesla Tesla Model Y, the Porsche Porsche Taycan, the Kia Kia EV6 — the cars a buyer of the period would actually have cross-shopped.

The numbers, read closely

On paper, the Ora Good Cat reads like this: quoted output is 143 hp / 171 hp (GT); kerb weight is recorded at 1438–1560 kg; drive goes through 1-speed direct-drive; the layout is Front-motor, front-wheel-drive. Worked together, those figures give roughly 99 horsepower per tonne — the single number that says more about how a car actually moves than any of its parts alone. Every figure above is a manufacturer specification carried by the Wikipedia infobox or the open Wikidata record for this model — nothing on this page is estimated, and where a source is silent the row simply does not appear.

Its place in the Great Wall Motor story

Within Great Wall Motor's own catalogue the Ora Good Cat sits alongside the Great Wall Coolbear, the Great Wall Cowry, the Great Wall Deer, the Great Wall Florid. The record names the Great Wall Florid as its predecessor and the Ora 5 as its successor, fixing its place in the model line's chronology. Design is credited to Emanuel Derta. Assembly is recorded at China: Taizhou, Zhejiang (GWM Taizhou Smart Factory) / Thailand: Rayong (GWM Thailand, 2023–2026) / Indonesia: Bogor Regency / Bogor (Inchcape plc / Inchcape Indomobil).

How this catalogue works

This library is generated, verified and rebuilt from the open record on every deploy. The catalogue skeleton comes from Wikidata, specifications from Wikipedia's infoboxes under CC BY-SA, photography from Wikimedia Commons under each file's own licence, and the ownership data from United States federal safety records. Nothing is written by hand and nothing is invented: every fact on this page traces to a public source, and every page is rebuilt nightly as those sources improve. Errors in the source record will appear here too — and disappear the night the source is corrected.

Why concepts and prototypes are in the library

Most car databases stop at series production. This one deliberately does not, because concept cars, racing specials and cancelled prototypes are where the industry thinks out loud — the ideas tested in public years before they reach a showroom. Holding them beside the production cars they inspired makes the lineage legible: nearly every landmark road car in this library has a concept ancestor somewhere in the catalogue, and the connections run through the era links on every page.

From catalogue to ownership

The catalogue records what the Ora Good Cat was; the ownership database records what it is like to own. MotorJury computes a verdict for every model year the United States federal record covers — complaints, recalls, real economy — refreshed nightly, with no opinions involved. If this car reached the American market, its verdicts are in there.
