GWM South Africa has unveiled the new P300 SX range, an addition that completes the P300 portfolio and strengthens the brand’s position in the commercial vehicle segment.
What is it?
The facelifted SX model is offered in both double and single cab formats and replaces the outgoing P-Series SX models and offers private and fleet buyers a value-packed workhorse.
With the addition of the SX, the P300 range now spans LS, LT and SX, giving South African buyers a complete line-up tailored to both lifestyle and commercial needs. While the LS and LT bring advanced tech and comfort to everyday driving, the SX focuses squarely on the needs of professionals who demand durability, efficiency and practical value.
Engine:
Under the hood, the P300 SX is driven by a 2.0ℓ Turbo Diesel producing 120kW and 400Nm of torque and paired with the 6-speed manual or 8-speed automatic transmission and the towing capacity of 2 250kg.
Exterior:
The P300 SX comes equipped with a host of premium features designed for both comfort and safety. It rides on 17" alloy-wheels, and it has front and rear fog lights.
Interior:
Inside is a manual air conditioner and Bluetooth connectivity. Safety is prioritised with a Traction Control System (TCS), dual front and side airbags, and rear parking sensors.
