From R 352 708 at the Car4Less price

Overview

GWM's sharp-priced double cab with spec that shames pricier rivals — leather, tech and turbo-diesel grunt at a price band the establishment abandoned years ago.

In this review we look at what the GWM P300 offers South African buyers — its range and pricing, how it drives, what it's like to live with, and who it suits best. As a single cab / double cab pick-up, it's a well-rounded choice in its class.

Range and pricing

The GWM P300 range spans 11 variants, giving you room to match the car to your budget and needs. At the Car4Less price it opens with the P300 2.0T Single Cab SX from R 352 708 and stretches to the P300 2.4T Double Cab LTD 4x4 at R 594 915 — every one below the manufacturer's retail price.

That spread means there's usually a sweet spot in the range — a variant that balances price against the features that matter to you. The full variant-by-variant pricing is laid out on the model page, so you can see exactly what each step up buys you.

Performance and driving

Power outputs run from 120kW to 135kW across the range, available with Diesel power. For a single cab / double cab pick-up, the P300 is tuned for easy, efficient everyday driving, with enough performance to make it feel willing without drinking fuel.

Most buyers in this class care less about raw numbers than about how a car feels in daily use — and on that score the GWM delivers the kind of unstressed, predictable driving experience that makes it easy to live with day after day.

Fuel economy and running costs

Claimed consumption ranges from 8.7 to 12 L/100km depending on variant and drivetrain. Those are respectable figures for the class, though as always your real-world number depends on how and where you drive.

Fuel is only part of the running-cost picture. Factor in insurance, tyres and servicing too — and remember that buying the P300 below retail through Car4Less reduces the amount you finance, trimming your interest over the whole term as well.

Interior, safety and practicality

It seats 5 and the fuel tank holds 78 litres. Airbag count ranges from 2 to 7 across the range, so it's worth checking variant by variant, alongside the active safety systems expected in this class.

Whatever the configuration, every GWM P300 on Car4Less is a brand-new car with its full factory specification — not a stripped-out special. The model page lists the detailed specs so you can confirm exactly what each variant includes before you enquire.

Ownership and aftercare

Every GWM P300 sold through Car4Less is brand new and delivered by the national GWM franchise dealer network with the manufacturer's full warranty, a 7 year / 75 000 km service plan. Servicing and warranty work can be carried out at any GWM dealer in the country, so wherever you are, support is close by.

That national footprint is a real part of the ownership case. It means predictable servicing, easy access to parts, and the reassurance that your car can be looked after anywhere — all of which also helps protect its resale value down the line.

The Car4Less verdict

The GWM P300 earns its place in our showroom on GWM's reputation and the value it offers in its class. It does the important things well, it's backed by a strong dealer network, and it's a car you can buy with confidence.

What seals it is the price. Because Car4Less lists the P300 below the manufacturer's retail price — with the option of up to R3 000 a month back through the Payment Saver Plan for qualifying buyers — it's simply a smarter buy here than anywhere else. Browse the full variant line-up, compare it against its rivals, and enquire on WhatsApp when you're ready to drive one for less.
