Great Wall Wingle
Encyclopedia
The Great Wall Wingle is a compact pickup truck
built and marketed by Great Wall Motor since 2006. In 2009, it became the first Chinese-made 'Ute' or pickup to be sold in Australia where it is marketed as the V-Series. It is also available in Europe under the Steed name.
. In some markets, it is offered with a GW2.8TC
diesel engine. V240 is highly specified with standard alloy wheels, AM/FM CD radio, electric windows, leather trimmed seats, disc/drum brakes and air-conditioning.
It has been noted by motoring journalists that the Wingle shares a very similar side and rear-end profile to the Isuzu D-Max
sold since 2002. The vehicle's front end styling also bears a striking resemblance to the 2002 Volkswagen Magellan concept car.
In 2010, a single-cab model was released which, in the Australian market, replaced the SA220 (Great Wall Sailor).
