Why the Missing Rear Wiper Matters for GWM ORA 03 Owners


The GWM ORA 03, also known as the Funky Cat, is a popular electric vehicle praised for its design and performance. However, many owners have expressed concern about the lack of a rear wiper. Without a rear wiper, rainwater, dirt, and debris accumulate on the rear window, reducing rear vision and increasing the risk of accidents, especially in wet weather.


Rear vision is critical for safe driving, particularly when reversing or changing lanes. The missing rear wiper leaves drivers vulnerable to poor visibility, which can compromise safety. This gap in the original design sparked the demand for an aftermarket solution that fits perfectly and works reliably.
