A new EV car brand, GWM ORA, has launched Personal (PCH) and Business (BCH) leasing rates for its ORA Funky Cat First Edition vehicle.

Business customers can finance this EV from £199 per month, with retail customer leasing available from £239.

These price offerings make ORA Funky Cat the best value ‘family-sized’ BEV currently available in the UK leasing market, the carmaker said in a statement.

GWM ORA is part of Great Wall Motors, one of China’s top automotive manufacturers.

ORA Funky Cat is the first of many models introduced in the UK under the GWM ORA brand. For now, the ‘First Edition’ iteration of the ORA Funky Cat is available for delivery in a week and comes with high specifications as standard – including features such as 360-degree cameras, electric front seats, internet radio and intelligent voice assistant.

GWM ORA UK managing director, Toby Marshall, said: “These new leasing rates will ensure that ORA Funky Cat is one of the most financially accessible BEVs in the market to both retail and business leasing customers.
