GWM CANNON Secures ANCAP Five-Star Rating in Australia
Recently, the Australian Cannon achieved an excellent result in the latest ANCAP (Australasian New Car Assessment Program) testing, receiving the highest "Five-Star Safety Rating." This achievement confirms that Cannon's performance in various safety tests has been recognized by international experts. Currently, all products sold by Great Wall Motors in Australia have passed the ANCAP Five-Star Safety Certification, earning the company the prestigious title of having a "Five-Star Family."
ANCAP is a respected vehicle safety evaluation organization in Australia and New Zealand, known for its professional and strict testing standards. To achieve the highest Five-Star rating, a vehicle must excel in four major areas: Adult Protection, Child Protection, Pedestrian Protection, and Safety Assistance, covering a total of 28 detailed assessment items. Today, the ANCAP rating is a key consideration for local consumers when purchasing vehicles and serves as a global benchmark for vehicle safety. Under such rigorous standards, Cannon’s success in earning the Five-Star rating not only continues Great Wall Motors’ record of Five-Star safety across its entire product range in Australia but also demonstrates the company’s commitment to prioritizing user safety. Great Wall Motors is dedicated to providing a worry-free driving experience for users worldwide. This achievement further highlights the company’s leadership and continuous efforts in the field of automotive safety.

Cannon’s high score in testing is due to its use of high-strength steel and its high-safety body structure design, combined with advanced L2-level driver assistance features such as Lane Keep Assist, Automatic Emergency Braking (with pedestrian and cyclist detection), and Rear Cross Traffic Alert. These features help effectively protect both the vehicle occupants and other road users.

In addition to its outstanding safety performance, Cannon, as a hybrid pickup truck, plays a key role in supporting Great Wall Motors’ brand growth in the high-end pickup market in Australia. Great Wall Motors has always adhered to a "user-centered" philosophy. From January to October 2024, the company’s sales in Australia exceeded 35,000 units, ranking among the top 10 brands in the local market and making it one of the fastest-growing brands there. Since Cannon’s entry into the Australian market, it has not only helped Great Wall Motors further increase sales but also brought a new interpretation of off-road culture to local consumers with its powerful off-road capabilities.
With this success in defending Great Wall Motors’ Five-Star safety record across all its products, Cannon affirms its place in the global market. The ANCAP Five-Star Safety Rating reinforces that Great Wall Motors’ high-end off-road pickup trucks will continue to offer users worldwide a safe and worry-free driving experience according to global safety standards.
