The Saloon Mecha Dragon (Chinese: 沙龙机甲龙; pinyin: Shālóng jījiǎ lóng) is a luxury electric sedan produced by China car company Great Wall Motor under the Ora brand. Originally planned to be the first product of the "Saloon" (沙龙, literal translation: Sand Dragon) premium brand, the Mecha Dragon was unveiled in November 2021 and was originally planned with a limited edition version with an initial run of 101 units.
