Great Wall announced that 100,000 units had been produced by March 2011, only ten months after production had started. The Voleex C30 was awarded the title of "2010 CCTV Compact Passenger Car of the Year in China".[3]

The Bulgarian version is available in two trim levels: One and Star, both fitted with manual transmission and the 1.5-lite engine, which produces 71 kW (97 PS; 95 bhp). The Voleex C30 can reach a top speed of 183 km/h (114 mph) and can accelerate from rest to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 11.3 seconds.
