I made a comment on the clip and a rep from drive replied agreeing with me that the name is somewhat confusing.
Much like saying I drive a Toyota Ute Hilux.
Its happened before, didn't one of the other Chinese (or Indian??) Brands actually called their Ute a "Pick-up" for its model name.
Looking at the GWM site it seems to confirm that the name of the model is Ute and Cannon is a trim specification.
Confusing..... are there any other brands that actually call their model the generic name for the segment of vehicles??

GWM Ute is like Isuzu Ute, just how they refer to their commercials, Cannon is the base model, then its Cannon L and tops out at Cannon X.
There is a hero version in the pipeline to tackle the Wildtraks of the world which in China is known as an Everest.
