2024 GWM Tank 300 Ultra Hybrid review: Australian first drive
Executive Summary
AutoExec Summary
Adding a hybrid to the GWM Tank 300 4WD enhances its performance but doesn’t significantly dilute its off-road capabilities. The hybrid variant costs more and offers additional features, but fuel efficiency gains are modest. It retains robust off-road credentials with a comprehensive 4WD system and protective features. The interior is comfortable and well-equipped, although active safety systems can be overly intrusive. Overall, the Tank 300 Hybrid is recommended for its extra performance and equipment, despite slightly higher fuel consumption compared to the non-hybrid version.
Brands mentioned: GWM, Jeep, Ford, Suzuki, Mitsubishi, Mercedes, Nissan
