G5 Overview:
Great Wall Deer (G5). With 190 Nm of torque, it offers ample pulling power. With a weight of 1620 kg, it falls in the mid‑range. All‑wheel drive provides excellent grip, ideal for off‑road use. The top speed reaches 140 km/h. A vehicle with an open cargo bed at the back, suitable for transporting goods. Seating for 5 makes it ideal for daily use.
Performance Verdict
The 105 Hp from the 2.2L engine provides adequate power for light utility but struggles with heavy loads or highway speeds. Acceleration is leisurely, and the 140 km/h top speed is limiting.
Fuel Economy
Fuel consumption at 15 L/100 km is notably high for the power output, making it an expensive vehicle to run, especially with frequent use.
Best Use Case:
Rural utility, light off-road work, local hauling where 4x4 capability is essential.

- • Highly affordable purchase price

Cons:
- • Very high fuel consumption for its power output
- • Limited engine performance and acceleration
- • Basic safety features and likely poor crash test results (if tested)
