In June 2019, Ora presented the R2 EV Concept study as a preview of the third model in the production line of vehicles of this subsidiary of Great Wall Motors.[3] The car was characterized as a more comfortable alternative to the budget model R1. At the rear, there is a glass pane optically forming one part with a strip of LED lamps running across the width of the body, supplemented by additional lamps in the bumper.[4]
The model was formally released on July 15, 2020, and renamed the White Cat for production.[5] The car found the most buyers, 20.6 thousand, in 2021.[6] Its production ended in February 2022 due to a change in model policy, in which the manufacturer withdrew from loss-making cheap models in favor of larger and more expensive designs[7].
The White Cat is offered in two versions equipped with a 34kWh or 38 kW battery, with a claimed NEDC range of 360 km and 401 km, respectively. The 360 km model is equipped with a 35 kW/48 hp motor with a max torque of 125Nm, whereas the 401 km model is equipped with a 45 kW/61 hp motor with a max torque of 130Nm.[2]
