GWM South Africa proudly presents the all-new TANK 500 Hybrid SUV which offers a combination of elegance, advanced technology and exceptional off-road capability. This newest addition to the GWM line-up epitomises luxury, innovation and exceptional build quality.

The TANK 500 is the latest in the series of the new GWM vehicles to be introduced in South Africa this year. As the flagship model, the TANK 500 stands as a true testament of the growth of GWM as a manufacturer of world class luxury vehicles.

The TANK 500 HEV is a technological tour de force with advanced features aimed at enhancing passenger comfort and safety, on and off-road driving capabilities and ease of use.

“The TANK 500 Hybrid SUV represents the pinnacle of GWM’s design and engineering efforts. It is the culmination of vehicle development process which combines the know-how of the group’s research and development centres in China, the United States, Germany, Japan, Canada, South Korea, Australia, and India,” says Kevin Li, newly appointed MD for GWM South Africa. 

This level of excellence reflects the brand’s value for money philosophy.

Outside of the Uncompromising Passenger Safety, Comfort, and Luxury the TANK 500 HEV is a large 7-seater SUV also offers:

Striking Exterior, Opulent Interior

Every aspect of the TANK 500 has been designed to deliver an exceptional driving experience. Its exterior features a bold front grille, 20-Inch alloy wheels, and automatic side steps, making entry and exit a completely indulgent experience. The panoramic sunroof gives the vehicle an airy and roomy feel, allowing every passenger to arrive feeling relaxed.

Power Meets Performance

Under the hood, the TANK 500 boasts a Direct-Injection, 2.0-Litre Turbocharged Four-Cylinder Petrol powerplant, combined with the latest in electric driving technology and delivering a combined 255kW of power and an eye-watering 648Nm of torque. This SUV can tow up to 2.5 tonnes and accelerates from 0-100km/h in just 8.3 seconds, despite its robust 2 605kg weight. Its advanced 9-Speed automatic gearbox, combined with 11 All-Terrain driving modes – including Sports, Snow, Sand, Rock, and Expert – ensures that the TANK 500 can navigate any terrain you may encounter.

Cutting Edge

The TANK 500 represents GWM’s commitment to excellence, combining top-quality interior finishes with cutting-edge technology. The large 14.6-inch LED Colour Touchscreen offers seamless infotainment, while the Infinity® 12-Speaker System provides superior audio quality. The Heads-Up Display projects crucial information such as speed, vehicle data and navigation directions onto the windshield, enhancing your driving experience.

Unmatched Safety

Safety is a top priority in the TANK 500, and the vehicle boasts a 5-Star ANCAP Rating. This SUV is equipped with a very comprehensive suite of active and passive safety features, including Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control, Rear Collision Warning, Cross Traffic Alert, Emergency Lane Keep Assist, and Auto Intelligent Parking. These systems work together to ensure maximum protection for you and your passengers.

360 Degree Surround-Sight

In the TANK 500, you’ll always be aware of your surroundings. Its 360-Degree Camera, Auto Emergency Braking, and Lane Departure Warning systems provide a complete view of what’s ahead, behind, and beside you, enhancing your driving experience and safety on the road.

Future-Forward Tech

At the heart of GWM’s electrification strategy is its Dedicated Hybrid Technology. Each Petrol-Electric Hybrid Engine is highly integrated and features a robust lithium-ion battery, enhancing performance and efficiency while reducing noise. The multi-Mode Hybrid transmission offers smooth, fuel-efficient starts and impressive acceleration, reaching 100km/h in 8.3 seconds. Making the TANK 500 ideal for both urban commutes and off-road adventures.

Cue Peace of Mind

GWM Care begins the moment you receive your TANK 500 and continues throughout your ownership experience. The TANK 500 comes with a 7 Year / 200 000 km Warranty, an 8 Year / 150 000 km High-Voltage Battery Pack Warranty, a 7 Year / Unlimited km Roadside Assistance plan, and a 5 Year / 75 000 km Service Plan. This comprehensive care package ensures your TANK 500 stays in peak condition for years to come.
