GWM TANK 300 2.0T TANK SUV

As a niche car type, it is difficult for off-road vehicles to achieve the same sales results as urban SUVs, but it has always had a lot of fans. In a fixed “circle”, there are many off-road fans. They advocate adventure and like to explore unknown areas.
I have a deep obsession with “poetry and the distance”, and if you want to take risks and explore, you cannot do without an off-road vehicle with outstanding off-road capabilities.

The Tank 300 is a hot model in the off-road vehicle market. The sales of this car can account for about 50% of the off-road vehicle market. I am not exaggerating the fact. For example, the total sales volume of the entire off-road vehicle market in 2021 is about 160,000 units, while the sales volume of the Tank 300 in 2021 is as high as 80,000 units, accounting for half of the market segment. Let’s take a look at the product strength of Tank 300 first. The car is positioned as a compact off-road vehicle. Its length, width and height are 4760 mm, 1930 mm and 1903 mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2750 mm, which is relatively large in size among models of the same class.

Since it is a hard-core off-road vehicle, the car will not be built based on the load-bearing body structure of an urban SUV, it will be built based on a non-load-bearing body structure. The chassis has a girder on which load-bearing components such as the engine, gearbox, and seats are mounted, thereby improving the rigidity of the body. The car adopts the chassis structure of front double-wishbone independent suspension + rear multi-link non-independent suspension. The gearbox and engine are arranged vertically, which is more conducive to the transfer of the weight of the front of the car to the middle of the car body and avoids the nodding phenomenon of sudden braking. In terms of power, the car is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 227 horsepower and a maximum torque of 387 Nm. The transmission system is an 8AT gearbox provided by ZF. In fact, the book data of the 2.0T engine is still very good. It’s just that the curb weight of the car exceeds 2.1 tons, the power output is not so abundant, and the 9.5-second breaking time is also quite satisfactory.

The car is equipped with a four-wheel drive system as standard, but its four-wheel drive system is divided into two types. The off-road version is equipped with a time-sharing four-wheel drive system. You can switch modes through the transfer knob on the front floor. It can switch between 2H (high-speed two-wheel drive), 4H (high-speed four-wheel drive) and 4L (low-speed four-wheel drive). The urban version is equipped with a timely four-wheel drive system with only a center differential lock and no front/rear axle differential lock. Of course, three locks are not standard equipment for off-road models. The 2.0T Challenger is only equipped with a rear axle differential lock and no front axle differential lock (optional). In addition, the L2-level assisted driving system is standard for all models.

The car’s rear space is quite spacious, the rear floor is relatively flat, and the seats are comfortable. Its tailgate opens from the right side, and the depth of the trunk has no advantage. In terms of off-road parameters, the minimum ground clearance is 224 mm when fully loaded, the approach angle is 33 degrees, the departure angle is 34 degrees, the maximum climbing angle is 35 degrees, and the maximum wading depth is 700 mm. For these cold numbers, you may not have an intuitive impression, we can make a horizontal comparison as a reference. The approach angle of the Toyota Prado is 32 degrees, the departure angle is 26 degrees, the minimum ground clearance is 215 mm when fully loaded, the maximum climbing angle is 42 degrees, and the maximum wading depth is 700 mm. On the whole, the tank 300 has more advantages. If you go to the plateau area, its adaptability is better than Prado.
