It is a challenge the rugged GWM will gladly accept.
The GWM Tank 300 is now available GWM Thorp Haval & GWM dealerships at Table Bay Mall and Plumstead, where expert sales teams make every purchase seamless. A midsize SUV comparison serves as an excellent guide for buyers.
Not Just Another SUV – A Purpose-Built 4×4
Unlike soft-road SUVs, where the focus mainly falls on comfort for town driving, 4×4 SUVs are all about toughness, high-ground clearance and conquering severe terrain.
The GWM Tank 300 4×4 meets all these criteria – and then some.GWM’s capability-first engineering process has developed two advanced 4×4 systems for the Tank 300 platform.
The petrol model boasts an All-Terrain Driving System with Multi-Terrain Select, while the HEV model delivers a unique four-wheel drive system with electronic management and low range.Those choosing the latter can select from a huge suite of modes: Normal, Economic, Sport, Stone, Snow, Sand, and Low-Range 4×4 driving.
This rugged 4×4 SUV excels in all environments, whether it’s trail, overland, or rough-terrain.
Distinctive Design with Purpose
The GWM Tank 300 might have a ladder frame chassis comprised mostly of 1,500Mpa steel but style is in no way compromised.
Its bold stance, distinctive grille and LED lighting give it significant presence on the road.Of course, the Tank 300 really comes into its own in terms of its off-road design elements. The suspension system includes a multi-link rear and double-wishbone front setup, while a balanced drivetrain and towing hooks come standard.
This 4×4 SUV is the quintessential blend of rugged performance, style and comfort, making it ideal for urban and rough-terrain driving.
Modern Cabin, Daily Driving Comfort
Don’t be fooled the by muscular frame and rugged exterior: the interior Tank 300 features are simply breath-taking.
Soft Nappa, full-grain leather seats where the front row is heated and cooled for all-climate comfort is just the start.This standout performer in the GWM SUV range is no slouch in the tech department either.A 12.3” full-colour touchscreen, nine-speaker Infinity audio system, wireless charging system and front-seat massage function deliver luxury and comfort even when travelling long distances.
Smart safety systems like Adaptive Cruise Control, Rear Collision Warning, Lane Keep Assist and Traffic Sign Recognition also greatly reduce the risk of driver, passengers and pedestrians being harmed.
A New-Generation Alternative to Legacy 4X4 Brands
While there is no question that the South African 4×4 market is a tough nut to crack, the GWM Tank 300 is clearly proving tough enough.
The range-topping Tank 300 HEV Super Luxury 4×4 pairs a hybrid powertrain with a nine-speed automatic transmission to produce 255 kW and 648 Nm of torque. Fuel consumption comes in at a very healthy 8.4 L/100km. That alone leaves its legacy-brand 4×4 rivals in the dust when comparing price and power.
There are also far more interior infotainment and safety systems in the Tank 300 than in rival vehicles in the same market segment. What it may lack in seating – five to the seven found in competitor vehicles – it makes up for in bang for buck.
Tank 300 vs GWM P300 – SUV or Bakkie?
While the argument over the GWM Tank 300 vs legacy brands might be settled, the jury is still out on which of the SUV and GWM P300 bakkie is the better buy.It’s a fascinating debate but ultimately it comes down to purpose of use. The Tank 300 is lifestyle warrior that delivers exceptional off-road performance whereas the P300 is more of a stylish workhorse that moonlights as an off-the-beaten-track adventurer.
Both vehicles are exceptional but buyers have different needs. At the end of the day, this is likely to be the deciding factor.
