Here at CarSauce, we review every new car on the market. We are a community of sauce givers and we'd love for you to subscribe and join our community!

We give every car "the sauce", test their 0-100km/h, and see whether or not they are worth purchasing and spending your hard-earned cash on.

From time to time, we'll also buy a weird and wacky car and take you on the journey with me! We release videos every Sunday 5pm AEST / AEDT with the latest new car reviews!

Your feedback is important, so if you want to see us do something new or something you would like me to change let me know! Got a question for me? Leave it in the comments! I try and respond to them all!

7 years unlimited km warranty, 7 years road side assist with 7 years capped price servicing .WITH 8 YEARS BATTERY WARRANTY!? Very hard to say no to this car when it comes with that peace of mind .😮

[AnythingReviewedHub]

You guys are childish, doing a great job and reviewing DAMN CARS and not COUNTRIES. I love that you are not biased like many reviewers who focus more on the country and not fairly reviewing the CAR for the consumer and THAT IS GREAT for us viewers. Keep it up. All the way from South Africa.

[JuniorJr...]

The Chinese brands have also "swept in" to Brazil, bringing fair-priced technology, competition (which is great for the market), and compelling traditional automakers to offer better products and lower prices. Cheers from Brazil!

[jacobandeche]

There was a time Japanese vehicles were considered a joke too. The Chinese are coming good quick, for those hating on Chinese cars you will eat your words soon

[aslkdfjhg]

Australia allowing international manufacturers to legitimately compete in our market is so good for the consumer. Can't take it for granted.

[nostradamus]

The toughest car reviewer in Russia (disassembled the Tank 500) says the Tank handles much better than the Landcruiser 300. Another Russian car journo rated the back seat comfort as industry best, better than Lexus LX and Range Rover. This car cost more than AUD $100K in Russia especially so since Black ones appeared in Putin's motorcade.

tank 500 in Australia has more equipment than China version, and the price is the sameso really good bargain in Australia.

[seanlee]

Finally an off road capable car with a good luxury interior. All the other competitors have plasticy rugged interiors because it's an "off roader". But I think the Chinese knocked out of the park with this one deciding to give an off-road vehicle luxury which is extremely contradicting to conventional concepts

[joytech]

For the price and what you get, it is honestly a really compelling package. It will absolutely steal sales away from other brands. Not only does it compete with vehicles in this segment, but it is also priced similarly to offerings in other segments like a Kia Carnival, Toyota Granvia, Mazda CX9/90 or Hyundai Staria. Many people have been priced out of the premium large 4WD segment, and now this Tank 500 significantly undercuts the price bracket of those vehicles. People will cross-shop and realise they can have a powerful, capable and feature-packed 4WD for the same price or LESS than the options they were first considering.

Look at the sales success of the Tank 300 - a sign of things to come.

My wife just got the H6GT 2024 and it's been fantastic..I might need to get the Tank 😅

[Jefchang]

I drive a TANK 500 in Thailand. I've had so many cars in my life including Lotus, BMW, Alfa Romeo, Ford Capri and RS 2000, Range Rover and Lexus and I just love my TANK 500 above all. It is low cost luxury. The designers have thought of everything with this wonderful 21st century vehicle and its like sitting in a lounge chair.

[joewhite]

Bloody hell 2.92s 0-60 is the real highlight and even so just under 7 seconds 0-100 isnt to bad at all im quite impressed.

[savagebanana]

0-100 for just 6.95 that's bloody faster than my 2.5L NA mazda 3 did😨

[brendanlesko]

You guys are fucked .
And I love you .
Well done .
500 TANK ALL THE WAY .

[goldfools]

Absolutely love your reviews. Clever comedy that still informs.

[frankh]

Made me feel Paid too much for my Prado.. more competition better for customers especially the interest rate and housing prices in Australia is rocket high!

[Thisbull]

the Tank logo looks like a miniamlist transformers logo

[Maige]

Right boys when ya going to China to give us a video on the xiaomi car

[agentorange]

Anyone who test drives the Tank 500 will end up buying one on the spot. Many are attracted to the looks alone. This ultra trim is a very luxurious and yet very capable off roader for an insane price with 7 year warranty. An Audi 50 TFSI will depreciate more in 3 years than the Tank 500 sticker price. Yep, I will be buying one "without" a test drive. No need 😊

[jay-uobi]

I hope GWM bring the PHEV to Australia. Most Australians who would buy a vehicle like this also have a garage where they can plug-in.
