STORY
Tank began as a model line under Great Wall Motor's premium Wey brand and was spun off in 2021 as a standalone off-road sub-brand. The 300 was its founding product. It was first shown in 2020 and went on sale in December 2020. It has a body-on-frame ladder chassis and a low-range transfer case with front and rear differential locks, in retro boxy styling aimed squarely at the Ford Bronco and Suzuki Jimny. Demand in China outstripped supply so badly that early cars had long waiting lists and grey-market premiums. Powertrains started with a 2.0-litre turbo four and a ZF-sourced eight-speed automatic. The Hi4-T plug-in hybrid came later and adds a motor in the transmission housing for roughly 400 hp of system output, while keeping full-time four-wheel drive.
