JAKARTA - The Great Wall Motor (GWM) will launch a diesel engine option for the 300 Tank model in China, using a 2.4T diesel engine which is reportedly identical to the one used in the GWM Poer pickup truck.
Reporting from Carnewschina, Tuesday, May 28, this certainty was conveyed by the Chairman of Great Wall Motor, Wei Jianjun, in a live broadcast in China some time ago.
With this diesel engine option, the new version of Tank 300 will be equipped with a GW4D24 engine, producing a maximum power of 135 kW and a peak torque of 480 Nm. With this large torque, this car is able to overcome various terrains, from steep climbs to muddy roads.
Tank 300 was originally introduced as part of the Wey brand in 2020, before finally turning to the Tank brand in 2021. Currently, Tank 300 is already available in a version with a 2.0T gasoline engine, which generates 167 kW of power and 387 Nm of torque. In addition, there is also a 48V light hybrid version that increases power to 185 kW, although with a slight decrease in torque to 385 Nm.

Not only that, but the special variant of Tank 330 also comes with a 48V hybrid system, but with a 3.0T V6 engine that is more powerful, produces a maximum power of 265 kW and a torque of 500 Nm.
Tank 300 will also offer the PHEV variant with the 300 Hi4-T Tank model. This variant adds electric motors to the 2.0T engine, creating a combination of 300 kW of power and 750 Nm of torque.
Although sales of passenger cars with diesel engines are still relatively low in China, the presence of this option in Tank 300 is expected to provide attractive options for consumers. The data shows that by 2023, there will be 178,700 units of diesel passenger cars sold in China.
