Stockman Urban vs Ultimate: What Is Different
Both variants share the same powertrain, towing rating, 15.6-inch touchscreen, 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and seven airbags. The full driver assistance list is also the same, including autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane centring assist and blind spot detection.
The Ultimate adds comfort and convenience features, plus a front differential lock. Here is what the spec sheet lists.
Feature | Urban | Ultimate |
Differential locks | Centre and rear | Front, centre and rear |

Optional tyres | Not listed | 285/70 R17 all-terrain (extra cost) |
Ground clearance | 235mm | 235mm (247mm on all-terrain tyres) |

Prices are not on the same basis. Chery quotes MSRP, BYD quotes a price before on-road costs and GWM quotes drive-away prices. Chery and GWM quote electric range on the NEDC cycle, which usually returns higher figures than WLTP.
On paper, the Stockman has the most torque, the highest ground clearance and the highest payload of the three. It is the only diesel, and its 350kW matches the Shark 6 Performance. Its 34kWh battery sits between the Shark's 29.6kWh and the Cannon Alpha's 37.1kWh, and the Cannon Alpha claims the longest electric range.
On price, the Stockman Urban lists $9,910 below the Shark 6 Performance and the Ultimate lists $4,910 below it. The Urban's $52,990 is $4,500 below the Cannon Alpha Lux's drive-away price. GWM also sells the separate Cannon Hi4-T, which was priced from $47,990 as a launch offer.
