The Tank 500 New Car, upon arriving at the dealership, immediately exuded luxury in its dimensions: 5070 mm in length, 1934 mm in width, and 1905 mm in height. Parked there, it's a full size larger than the commercial vehicles next to it. The chrome grille, under the sunlight, resembles unfolded armor. The 2.0T Miller cycle engine combined with the P2 electric motor delivers 300 kW and 750 N·m of torque. While new energy vehicles are still calculating their remaining battery power, this car treats the highway ramp like its own living room. The 9HAT transmission quietly upshifts, with only wind noise reminding you that you've already exceeded 100 km/h.
Opening the power-closing doors releases a subtle fragrance of Nappa leather and suede. Heated, ventilated, and massaging seats are all included, and the second row offers nearly an arm's length of legroom via electric sliding, instantly erasing memories of cramped rear seats in older used cars. The 14.6-inch front screen puts navigation, air conditioning, seat controls, and ambient lighting at your fingertips, while the 7-inch rear armrest screen allows the executive seat to recline with a single touch. The 64-color ambient lighting, combined with the 12-speaker Infinity sound system, transforms the city's elevated highway at night into a mobile live music venue.
The non-load-bearing frame is concealed under the floor, acting like a stabilizing anchor for the entire vehicle. Intelligent four-wheel drive with mechanical locking offers 11 terrain modes including sand, mud, snow, and rock, all easily selectable. The air suspension can adjust its height between +50 mm and -25 mm, allowing for a maximum wading depth of 900 mm. While others hesitate on the shore, it has already left the waves in its rearview mirror. Crawl control, tank turn, and low-speed cruise control are all included, enabling even novice drivers to handle rugged off-road terrain with the ease of a seasoned pro. Meanwhile, the electric motor keeps fuel consumption low, around 9 liters per 100 kilometers in the city – remarkably economical for a vehicle weighing two and a half tons.
From Monday morning rush hour to Friday night, it quietly glides through traffic jams in pure electric mode, locking your fuel costs in the meter; on weekends, it's ready to go, combining gasoline and electric power. With a 70L fuel tank and a 37.1 kWh battery, it can take you deep into the grasslands and then tow a 2.5-ton RV back to the city. For just over 300,000 yuan, you get a spacious seven-seat interior, towing certification, three differential locks, air suspension, and a full luxury package. Compared to a similarly sized luxury SUV, it saves you the price difference of a small car, but offers ten years more peace of mind and prestige than an older used car. The Tank 500 HI4-T is not just a "big guy," but a reliable partner that combines power, luxury, fuel efficiency, and off-road capability, making every journey feel like an upgrade to life.
