Record June result cements GWM’s position as one of Australia's fastest-growing automotive brands
GWM has recorded its strongest sales month in the brand's 18-year history in Australia, eclipsing all previous monthly sales records and reinforcing the momentum behind the company's rapid product expansion and its ambition to become a top 5 automotive brand in Australia.
According to VFACTS national sales data, GWM delivered 6,104 vehicles in June 2026, securing a 4.7% market share (+0.2pts vs. June 2025) and achieving seventh position overall. The result represents a 20.5% year-to-date (YTD) volume increase and a 7% improvement on the brand's previous monthly sales record, set in March 2026.
The record-breaking month reflects the strength of GWM's multi-powertrain strategy, with an expanding portfolio of internal combustion, hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicles continuing to resonate with Australian buyers. This momentum was reinforced by sustained demand across GWM's New Energy Vehicle (NEV) range. Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) accounted for 21.0 per cent of GWM's June sales mix, delivering an 8.0 per cent share of segment (SoS) and ranking GWM second in the category. Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) represented a further 25.6 per cent of the sales mix, achieving a 5.7 per cent SoS and placing GWM fourth in the segment.
The record June result was supported by balanced demand across GWM's model range. The Haval Jolion led the way with a record 2,446 deliveries, while the H6 and H6 GT combined for 1,433 sales. The Cannon and Cannon Alpha ute range contributed a combined 1,171 deliveries, with the all-new ORA 5 contributing 275 units as stock arrived across the dealer network in late June.
The arrival of additional Tank 300 PHEV supply contributed to 258 plug-in hybrid deliveries in June, with the electrified variant accounting for almost half of all Tank 300 sales (49%). The result highlights the growing shift in consumer demand towards new energy vehicles (NEVs), with customers increasingly embracing electrified powertrains without compromising the model's renowned off-road capability.
Demand was strong across every corner of the country, with each GWM Australia sales region recording its best-ever monthly sales performance in June. The result reflects the strength of the brand nationwide, with customers across metropolitan and regional Australia embracing GWM's expanding range of vehicles.
Building Toward a Record Year
June's result lands as GWM prepares for its most significant period of product expansion in the brand's local history, with nine new models set to roll out over the next six months. This wave of new vehicles will see GWM's local range grow substantially, deepening its presence across the segments and powertrains where Australian buyers are most active and reinforcing the brand's position as one of the fastest-moving players in the market.
The expanded line-up is central to GWM's stated ambition of becoming a top 5 automotive brand in Australia by 2027, a target the company has backed with sustained investment in product development, dealer network growth, aftersales support and local market investment. June's record performance offers an early signal that this strategy is translating into real consumer demand and sets a strong platform heading into the busiest launch period in GWM Australia's history.
"This is the strongest month in GWM Australia's history, and it's a direct result of the investment we've made in our product range and our people. Australian customers are responding to what we're building - vehicles that deliver genuine value without compromise. June is proof our strategy is working, and with nine new models arriving over the next six months, we're only getting started on the drive to Top 5."
GWM extends its sincere thanks to its dealer partners, customers, and internal teams for their continued support. This collective effort has been instrumental in driving sustained growth and building strong confidence in the brand.
