Think your getting clouded judgement by electronic gadgets. Toyota tax is very high with low tech but reliability is very high and parts network all over Australia. A 3T vehicle with 400kg payload is poor compared to Prado with 760kg payload. Take 300kg off for ball weight you may not even fit driver in Tank. Fuel tank, you can’t get long range because battery is in back under rear, Prado has 150L & L300 has 130L.

@@bushmagpie3312 Kerb weight for the GWM Tank 500 Hybrid in Australia is 2,605kg. GVM is 3,395kg. So payload (including driver) is 790kg. Prado VX (what you need to have similar inclusions to the Tank 500) kerb weight is 2,305kg (with tyre on the back like the Tank 500). GVM is 2,990kg. So payload is 685kg. So you're incorrect on payload. Re fuel tank you're right but then the extra weight comes off the payload as the Toyota kerb weight is only with the main tank full. Re dealerships am pretty sure GWM now have over 100 dealers. Isn't an issue unless you're in the middle of nowhere.

Would like see the full spec numbers, fuel, range, GVM, GCM etc to make an informed better comparison. These Chinese claims as per Tank 300 fall down with GCM value when working all out.

it has been on other markets for ages. but the HEV powertrain is added on in recent years and the way they release HEV only simply because of the production scale advantage due to HEV is the main demand in the Chinese market and by mass producing one power variant allows them to keep their pricing sharp.

This is on my to get list if it ever comes to Europe. Just imagine how good the Chinese vehicles will be some 10 / 15 yrs down the road. This Tank 500 is already very impressive spec wise. Reliability is something that the car has to be proven on. But design and spec wise, this is a winner. And the overall winners will be the car buyers. As Chinese brands will put pressure on the existing European, Asian and US automotive brands to really start innovating, too start offering better design and tech, better overall value at a better price point.

I will be taking one of these for a test drive in the near distant future and looking to upgrade my Cannon X whilst keeping the L-CC for work purposes Fantastic Review, and thank you for not having the reviewer mindset of "it's not a Toyota so it's trash" like you see on so many other channels!

Even if you're trying to say bad things about this (coz you are on the anti-chinese bandwagon now for years), even if it was 13 litres/ 100 km that is still on par or better than any Land Cruiser 300, Patrol or Prado can yield. And note, it isn't GWM calim but it is an ADR claim of fuel consumption, which is pretty darn good at 8.5 litres. No Everest/ranger will ever yield you the 9.0L fuer consumption they calim. You'd be lucky to see 12 litres from a Ford if you're lucky. And that is Diesel. This one is petrol. That's another 20 cents per litre saved at the bowser.....

2.0 Everest owner here - I usually get 10 litres per hundred give or take, just standard suburbia driving without hypermiling or trying to race the thing. Also it usually gets about 15 when towing 2.7 tonnes which is a lot better than what I'd expect the Tank to do

My only concern with this car will be its long term reliability. I know there is a 7yr(or maybe 10yr) warranty on offer, but I'm interested to know if after 150000 km this car still functions flawlessly or not. And remember a landcruser holds a reasonable value even after 15 years. I doubt this car will have any value after 10 yrs.

@Richard-sl8we 2 месяца назад

Agreed, still unproven in Australia. What is local support and servicing like in Australia for GWM cars? What about spare parts if needed, what's the lead time?

I would be nice if journalists would use the METRIC measurement system Australia adopted in 1974 and stop using the Imperial measurement system when describing size like height! After all, it's been more than 50 years now!!!

@Drivecomau Месяц назад

The great thing about Aussies is, we're adaptable - and while we've been using the metric system for some time now, we're pretty good at both casually describing our height in feet and inches, as well as being able to convert that into scale that's easy to picture. 😉

2L turbo is very small for a mid-size SUV like the GWM Tank 500. It will work that 2L hard enough to use as much, or more, fuel as a 3.5L. Toyota should offer the Sequoia in Australia. It sells for significantly less than the LC300 and has more interior space.

@@rich7447well, maybe It depends on what you need a car for. I use this version of Tank for 2 months already, mostly at the city. Power is enough, even if you have 7 people on board. Of course it doesn’t go like a Raptor, but it’s not like a LC Prado 2.7 also.

@@Mayson568 We tend to have larger engines than many places in the world. My wife has the Lexus (GX460) version of the Prado and has about the same acceleration as the Tank 500. It just doesn't have to work very hard to do it (detuned 4.6L v8). Our Wrangler sounds like it is going to explode when you get on the throttle very hard.

Was thinking of buying Tank 500 or the new GWM ute coming with V6 3.0L but won't even go to look at one if only hybrid available. Too underpowered with tiny 2.0L and not great towing capacity. For a vehicle this size a 2.0 litre just doesn't cut it. Better off paying more for a Ranger with much bigger engine, considerably more power and 3.5T towing capacity. Or even the new Triton with much more power and also 3.5T towing capacity for not that much more and you are buying vehicle with great reputation and re-sale value.
