A new Sunshine Orange mica exterior paint colour is offered exclusively on the X-Terrain following the discontinuation of Volcanic Amber metallic.
The 2024 D-Max range will be offered in nine colours. All except Mineral White come at a $500 premium.
The D-Max is a staple in the Australian ute market, and this year's updates have done well to bring it up to speed against the competition.

The new flagship of the GWM Ute line brings a different four-wheel drive system plus more off-road gear, for a premium. Is it still a bargain?
