Vanuatu is in the southwest of Pacific, covering an area of only 3947 square kilometers. However, the competition is very severe in the auto market. Currently, 7 Japanese auto brands including Toyota, as well as 4 Korean auto brands including Hyundai already exist in Vanuatu. In 2007, cooperating with the local distributor-Pacific Autronics, GWM entered the market. Today, 58 units GW vehicles were sold here, amongst of which, 19 units are wingle.

GW Wingle was launched in 2007. Thanks to its unique design concept and stylish appearance as well, Wingle becomes the example in the domestic pickup line. It is also popular in the global market. More than 10,000 units Wingle were exported to the world in 2008.

So far, the GW pickup population in the 128 countries and regions is up to 200,000 units. As the largest Chinese pickup exporter, Great Wall Motor Company Limited has maintained the No. 1 export brand in the domestic pickup line for 10 years in a row.
