In a defining moment for Morocco’s automotive landscape, GWM Maroc marked a major milestone following its remarkable victory at the Rallye Aïcha des Gazelles 2026. To honor this achievement, the brand hosted an exclusive celebration in Casablanca, bringing together media, partners, and the winning duo, Jawhara Bennani and Dounia Bennani.

Held at the GWM showroom on Avenue des FAR, the event extended the spirit of an extraordinary performance that unfolded in some of Morocco’s most demanding terrains. From vast dunes to rocky tracks, the rally challenged participants with navigation without GPS, where precision, endurance, and instinct define success.

A Victory Forged in Extreme Conditions

At the heart of this triumph lies the GWM TANK 300, a model engineered to handle the unpredictable. Designed with a body-on-frame architecture, the vehicle combines structural strength with advanced off-road technologies. Its 2.0L turbocharged engine, paired with intelligent terrain management systems, allowed the team to maintain control across diverse landscapes.

Equipped with differential locks, high ground clearance, and multiple off-road driving modes, the TANK 300 proved to be more than just a vehicle. It became a strategic ally in an environment where every decision impacts the final outcome.

The Bennani sisters demonstrated exceptional composure and tactical intelligence throughout the rally. Their ability to interpret the terrain, combined with the reliability of their vehicle, secured a victory that reflects both human skill and mechanical excellence.

A Celebration of Performance and Vision

The Casablanca ceremony, titled “A Legend is Born – The Celebration,” was more than a formal gathering. It symbolized a shared success, highlighting the synergy between driver and machine, as well as the broader ecosystem supporting the brand.

Speaking at the event, a representative from Tractafric Motors Maroc emphasized that this victory embodies GWM’s ambition to push boundaries and deliver vehicles capable of performing in the most extreme environments.

For Jawhara and Dounia Bennani, the experience goes beyond competition. It represents a human adventure defined by resilience and trust. Their testimony reinforces the role of the TANK 300 as a dependable partner in challenging conditions, allowing them to focus entirely on strategy and navigation.

Strengthening GWM’s Position in Morocco

Through its participation in the Rallye Aïcha des Gazelles, GWM Maroc reinforces its positioning as a serious contender in the off-road segment. This victory is not only a sporting achievement but also a demonstration of the brand’s commitment to innovation, durability, and performance.

As the Moroccan automotive market evolves, moments like this shape perceptions and build credibility. GWM’s success in one of the world’s most demanding rallies sends a clear message: the brand is ready to compete at the highest level.
