Great Wall Motors, Chinese Automaker, Unveils Its New 6×6 Pickup Concept at the Shanghai Auto Show and Plans to Manufacture Its Vehicle for Sale in Brazil.

A Great Wall Motors (GWM) found a way to capture the attention of the media and the public at the Shanghai Auto Show. The Chinese automaker showcased its latest 6×6 pickup concept for the event, called the CyberP!ckup. Although it has a unique name inspired by the Tesla Cybertruck, the quirky vehicle is not fully electric.

Great Wall Motors’ 6×6 Pickup Features 510 Horsepower

The automaker opted for a powerful hybrid powertrain configuration instead of a fully electric system. The vehicle presented at the Shanghai Auto Show is not exactly new and is based on another truck from the brand, named Shanhai Cannon.

The model was modified in partnership with another Chinese company, Chaojing Motors. In addition to the extra wheels and axle, the pickup also became more robust, featuring items such as an enhanced suspension for off-road driving, Cooper Discoverer off-road tires, and new shock absorbers.

On the exterior, the Great Wall Motors 6×6 pickup features a front grille equipped with an LED strip, carbon fiber details on the hood, and smoked taillights.

Inside, the look is basically the same as the model that served as the base and does not present many novelties. So far, no new details have been released about the concept presented at the Shanghai Auto Show regarding performance numbers, price expectations, and battery capacity.

It is worth noting that in addition to Great Wall Motors, Hennessey, a car manufacturer in Texas, introduced a pickup called the Mammoth 1000 6×6 TRX in 2022 and only produced 12 units. The super pickup boasts over 1000 horsepower and measures over 7 meters in length.

With approximately 2 meters in height and 2.23 meters in width, the giant 6×6 pickup surpasses regular cars and even trucks. Compared to the RAM TRX, the Mammoth delivers 300 more horsepower. The torque necessary to propel this monstrous pickup has also been enhanced, totaling 1,314 Nm after a boost of 433 Nm by Hennessey.

Great Wall Motors (GWM) is still a relatively unknown name here. However, the Chinese automaker, which started airing its first commercial on TV in January, has a long-standing connection to Brazil. In fact, the company has been trying to establish operations here since 2012.

The aim was to start selling its cars in partnership with the Caoa Group. However, at that time the plan did not materialize, delaying its official arrival in the country for many years.

Fast forward to August 2021, the company finally decided to purchase the former Mercedes Benz factory in Iracemápolis, São Paulo. Some time later, an investment of R$ 10 billion in Brazil was announced, including plans to produce electric cars in the country.

Dissatisfied with seeing people sleeping on the street, a man named Ryan Donais started building small mobile homes so that homeless people can escape the cold, each equipped with a bed, running water, electricity, and heating.

Workers were opening a modern road in Dover when they found, 6 meters below the asphalt, a 3,500-year-old boat made of stitched oak and plant fibers.

A giant brown band visible from space, approximately 8,850 kilometers long, connected Africa to America in the Atlantic Ocean, and satellites revealed that it is neither land nor pollution, but the largest accumulation of seaweed in the world, which broke records in 2025.

Engineers want to carve through Africa with a giant canal to bring water from the world’s second-largest river to a dying lake on the edge of the Sahara Desert that has already lost 90% of its water.

Consumers eat six times more chicken than in the 1960s, global meat supply quadruples in 60 years, and FAO report reveals the invisible cost on the plate: livestock could drive 80% of the increase in agricultural emissions over the next decade.

Using high-resolution satellite images, archaeologists rediscovered the Egyptian city of Imet, buried for centuries in the Nile Delta, revealing rare multi-story houses, granaries, and a sacred road linked to the cobra goddess Wadjet, from about 2,400 years ago.

Man built a 5-acre lake to raise bass, but after 1,000 days the project turned into a wildlife sanctuary with eagles, deer, ducks, owls, and live cameras that transformed the farm into a biodiversity laboratory.

La Rinconada, the city at 5,100 meters altitude where 50,000 people challenge the limits of the human body in the Peruvian Andes: gold mining, thin air, extreme cold, and artisanal mining have transformed one of the highest places on Earth into a hub of survival above the clouds.

The motorcycle that stands on its own, without the rider needing to put their feet on the ground, has already moved from paper to prototypes by Honda and Yamaha in Japan, which use robotics and artificial intelligence, not heavy gyroscopes, to avoid tipping over.

Tired of people trapped in the cycle of sidewalks and shelters, the city hall created a solidarity rental program that takes homeless people to private properties, pays housing assistance, and offers health visits and assistance in a Brazilian city.

Laser that once occupied an entire laboratory now fits on a tiny chip and delivers 147 femtosecond pulses, paving the way for portable atomic clocks, medical diagnostics, and high-precision sensors.

Without a steering wheel, pedals, or driver, a Chinese electric minibus that carries up to six passengers at a maximum of 30 km/h is already operating in cities in China and abroad, and places South America among the markets being observed by the manufacturer.
