2024 GWM Tank 300 Review: It's SCARY Good.

The GWM Tank 300 is here, and EVERYONE has asked us to review it... and it is even better than I thought.

At $51,000 AUD driveaway, the Tank 300 comes with an awesome 4x4 setup including front and rear locking differentials, under body protection, and a part-time 4wd system. Mix in the Nappa leather seats with massage, cooling - the list goes on. It honestly makes you scratch your head and think, how is this not much more than $10,000 over a Suzuki Jimny? Today, we take a look at the Tank 300, and I'll show you why this has been taking that Aussie car market by storm.

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!

I have a black one it's actually the Best Chinese car so far better than my old f150 better than my jimny actually it's the best vehicle i ever owned

[TheHayabusa]

Don't forget there's a Hybrid version coming soon and the power numbers are impressive..254KWS and 615NMS! Also, the aftermarket accessories on these things is incredible. Lift kits, body kits, interior improvements..the list goes on.

[mervin]

It’s insane, this car is the most popular off road car in China. Considering its price, I would like to have a test drive.

I have a haval h9 and it's been good had it for 3 years

Hey guys just want to let you know I fell in love with the tank after watching your review. I just picked it up my first ever car today and it was the Tank 300 Petrol Ultra in Dusk Orange. Keep up the great work guys.

For the lane assist function, instead of lane keep, just use lane center, it works so much better.

[brentonl]

I've actually driven one of these and I thought I would ever consider a Chinese built car but this is bloody good. Look forward to the Tank 500.

[alexj]

I'm picking mine tomorrow, so excited!! Reviews of this car has been really good too. My friend's been owning it since July.

[ardyaprilianta]

Toyota can probably buy the car from GYM and slab a toyota label and sell it for 80k and people will still buy it. .

[VilThong]

I'm waiting on mine .... hopefully i pick it up in the next month. Great review ... I agree with many other comments. Brand bias is the only pain point for the Tank.

[Ra-uccg]

great price in aus i believe this is the lowest price outside china market

[jamesn-guyen]

This car basically tells us we've been paying way too much to the established manufacturers for years and it's great to see some Chinese upstarts coming in and shaking the boat a bit. Who benefits? The consumers. That's until the American government decide they don't want Aussies to like Chinese cars too much.

[TerraAvstralis]

Spoke to the sales person at GWM the other day and they confirmed there's an software update coming up for the lane assist function

[Phoka]

We need the pothole mode here in South Africa... Thanks for the review guys, I'm sold

[Firekelin]

In the past, in China's Tibet and Inner Mongolia regions, there were toyota PRADO, toyota Land Cruisers, Jeep Wranglers, and now, Tank 300s are everywhere

[zimuli]

As a Chinese, I would like to know the price of Suzuki Jimny in Australia, because Suzuki has long been forced to withdraw from the Chinese market under the fierce competition between the world's major auto companies and local Chinese companies.

[stendecstretcher]

Were trading our problematic 2018 Santa Fe Highlander in for one of these. Brands don't matter anymore we speak from experience.

[adamgriss]

This vehicle is becoming more and more popular here in Saudi Arabia. It looks like it was designed by a ten year old but I think that’s what gives it its allure.

[vilester]

i've tested this car. Crazy good. Really want one.

[ballerblocks]

Maybe you guys need to build straighter roads in Oz, that may fix your lane keep assist 😂
