The GWM Tank 300 is an interesting 4WD. Off road it is quite handy. It has great articulation, front and rear diff locks and  being small it fits in a lot of places larger 4WDs struggle with.

GWM is expanding the lineup with the introduction of a new turbo-diesel variant, available in two grades – Lux and Ultra.

GWM has made big inroads with their hybrid vehicles, but the diesel is a welcome addition.

At its core, GWM equips this vehicle with a powerful 2.4-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine, which cranks out 135kW of power and a solid 480Nm of torque between 1500 and 2500 rpm.

Paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission, this powertrain achieves a claimed combined fuel economy of 7.8L/100km*.

Towing capacity has been raised to 3000 kg. But to be honest its much better with lighter trailers.

Pricing starts at $47,990 driveaway through to $51,990 driveaway and those prices are excellent value.

The Tank 300 has a bit of a cult following for its fun factor off road. But like a lot of true 4WDs the on road dynamics suffer a touch
