GWM Ora Good Cat 500 Ultra charging time by charger power

How long the GWM Ora Good Cat 500 Ultra takes to charge at different charger power levels, capped by its own onboard limits.

GWM Ora Good Cat 500 Ultra charging time by charger power
Charger	Power	Charge	Time
Standard outlet	2.2 kW	0% → 100%	28 hours 41 minutes
Home wallbox	7 kW	0% → 100%	9 hours 1 minutes
Public AC	11 kW	0% → 100%	5 hours 44 minutes
DC fast	60 kW	10% → 80%	51 minutes

AC rows assume constant charging power and a 0% to 100% charge. Real times vary with the onboard charger, temperature, and the charger you use.

The DC fast row (10% to 80%) models the charging curve tapering as the battery fills, so it is more realistic than a flat estimate. Real DC times still vary with temperature, battery state, and the charger.

Charging speed

The GWM Ora Good Cat 500 Ultra is estimated to charge from 20% to 80% on public DC fast charging in about 45 minutes (standard DC).

Estimated. Real DC charging slows as the battery fills, so the time varies by model, temperature, and charger.

Battery care

This car uses an NMC battery. For daily use, charging to about 80% and topping up to 100% only before long trips helps it last longer; heat is the main thing that ages it.

Savings vs a petrol car

This charge adds about 216 km of range for RM 53.00. Driving the same distance on petrol would cost:

Engine size	Petrol cost	You save
≤ 1000 cc	RM 23.64	-RM 29.36
1000–1500 cc	RM 27.94	-RM 25.06
1500–2000 cc	RM 34.39	-RM 18.62
2000–2500 cc	RM 40.83	-RM 12.17
> 2500 cc	RM 49.43	-RM 3.57

Estimated from typical combined fuel use by engine size and RON95 (BUDI95) at RM 1.99/L. Charging at home saves the most; actual figures vary with driving and conditions.
