ORA (Chinese: 欧拉; pinyin: Oūlā) is a Chinese marque of electric passenger cars and crossovers based in Baoding, operating since 2018. The brand belongs to the car manufacturer Great Wall Motors.
History
Great Wall Motors announced the creation of the new ORA brand, dedicated to a new line of electric cars, in May 2018.
According to Great Wall Motors, ORA stands for ‘open, reliable and alternative’.[1]
At the time, the brand was launched with two initial models: the crossover iQ5 (now iQ) and city car R1 (now Black Cat).[2]
Sales of the iQ officially kicked off the brand in August 2018.[3]
The third ORA model R2 (now White Cat) was first previewed in June 2019,[4] with production officially beginning in July, 2020.[5]
The naming of the 'cat' series vehicles is reportedly based on a Deng Xiaoping's famous quote: "No matter if it is a white cat or a black cat; as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat."[6][7]
