Would love to see a comparo between this and the Jetour T2 when the latter comes out this year. These two could really make a splash given how they offer much more value compared to the Bronco and Wrangler. The warranties of these new players are also class-leading. Of course, there's the 5dr Jimny, too, which undercuts these units though also sacrificing some niceties. In all, it's great to have so much competition in this space now. At best, they'll force the traditional nameplates to either apply downward pressure on their SRPs or force them to up their tech/features moving forward. Consumers win.
@bear3806 30k saving? What does that even mean? You do know that even a 100k increase doesn't matter to buyers at this price point (that's like 3% of total srp only). Also, this is about 250k pricier than these SUV's top of the line range. Longevity and PARTS is what counts in this category. Does this thing have a mature market in the country? Do you have IMMEDIATE spare parts of if it breaks down? If you're looking for pure comfort then you can't beat Nissan Terras. In modern tech like automatic parking etc and parts maturity, you can't beat Ford Everest. So what role does this fill? A cheap Jeep? A high tech Toyota FJ Cruiser (btw is 600k cheaper)? You can't beat an FJ in terms of parts and quality. You also can't beat a Jeep in terms of branding, yet this vehicle is a bump away towards that brand. So what is this 2.7mil suv for? It's also nearly 2 times more expensive than the new 4 door Jimny that is used for fun. These are legit questions btw. This is like the Geely Okavango scenario all over again. Great vehicle, but terrible parts circulation. Not to mention this is a 5 seater. So why get this when you can get a 4x4 SUV with 7 seats? If you're targeting the luxury offroaders, then why settle for this when you can have a Jeep or a modded FJ cruiser? What about this cars after market parts availability (or does it have any at all)?
@@tankshot3256 agreed. While i do appreciate it's attempt, i'm not a fan of it's execution (and msrp) - they should've not copy-pasted the design of the jeep and when for something more unique since that's they're niche anyway. Ride comfort isn't a selling point anymore since all of the modern suv's are great rides.
@@wanderlifeitis sorry but not sorry, the only way ill own a ch!nk car brand meaning an indigenous chinese company is kung ibibigay sa akin yan ng libre but will probably sell it right away. Its my political stance against PRC for bullying us and if you buy them is directly funding more their govt coz IIRC almost are state owned (partial). 2ndly, the quality and the blatant trying hard immitation of their models. Parts availability and after sales service is questionable. Main selling points nila mostly are the loaded features na sa dami eh yun din ang dami ng masisira. Tapos etong model na to ganyan kamahal? Are they trying to fool everyone na theyre are a premium brand or a pedigree? I rather buy the base model or the bare bones variant of a toyota/japan model than a a fully loaded ch!nk one. Again thats my stance because its China. Kung di sila kupal sa pinas and even to the rest, then perhaps, parhaps ill buy their chinese motorbikes 😄
The hybrid variant would be perfect ✌️😃 or the latest Hi4-T with more low end torque plus much better fuel economy win win for city driving and off roading fun ❤🎉🎉
2.6M!!!???? I feel there are other better (and safer) choices. you could've taken it down to Jungle Base for a more "fun" experience. Hehe... great video though! I always love the way you do your reviews Vince.
@@peterpan121983 i meant "safer" in terms of proven reliability of other brands (in consideration of the price). Dont get me wrong, I honestly wanted this when I saw one a month ago... its just the price :(
@@ronramos1613GWM has been in operation sine 1984. The Tank 300 is widely popular even in Australia. If you doubt its reliability, just watch videos of it going off-roading - in some cases even surpassing legacy brands.
@@ronramos1613 kuha ka na sir. 2020 pa na launch itong tank 300. Since then it has already gained legendary status in off-roading. Just do do your own research na lang po. I have driven one and it's out of this world better than a jeep, better than a raptor. Plus hindi po basta2 nayuyupi ang tank even if it rolled over 4 times down hill.. walang dent walang damage.

When you are doubting the reliability and build quality of Chinese cars because of stigma, you should watch how Russians review China cars. You'll be surprised how tough Chinese cars are.
it would be more expensive if they put in the 3.0L twin turbo V6 mild hybrid. Not just because of the bigger engine but because of taxes. China doesn't enjoy the 0% tax as ASEAN made cars
Lol a bit more torque? This thing moves the moment you step off the brakes. 380nm torque is equal to your ranger 2.0 diesel. So a bit more torque really??
What is exactly the target market of this? We all know ph is brand conscious. Is it marketed towards offroaders? Then they missed out on making it front IFS. Solid axles are way much preferred for those people. Is it marketed towards typical SUV buyers? Then people will just go with the 7 seater SUV which is also capable offroad if you have the 4x4 variant. Is it marketed those towards having a Sunday car / weekend car? The brand doesn't even carry weight at this point. Really, GWM Ph shot themselves on the foot by pricing it akwardly and no mans land. Cheaper than Jeep but not solid axle, an FJ replacement but without the heritage and brand and aftermarket PARTS and support we have. Pricier than Jimny but is actually bigger all around and still not solid axle.
Hmmmn. Too much expectations by GWM phils. This is just under 1.9m in australia when it was launched. And only compared to the new mahindra scorpio n. But if GWM phils introduced this as an alternatve to bronco or the new land cruiser, it will sound cheap. Lol. If I have the money, will rather buy the raptor and spend the extra money for the accessories. Goodluck GWM for the overpriced Tank 300.
I love this suv tank 300... Love from India
Wow! It's a beauty! Retro but high-tech, you made me love it Vince. Wow!
I would take the Tank 300 into consideration knowing that the Bronco and Wrangler cost a hell lot more
Thank you for this review sir. I'm planning to get one of this
Nice car! Ausies did love this car and they say the quality is also decent if not good to compete with other well known brands

Nice Review hopefully magkaroon na rin ng Model Tank 500 the soonest
Did you do a 60mph sudden brake test? Just wondering if they fixed the severe suspension safety issue with the rear wheels lifting off the ground?
Oh may GWM Tank 300 na sa Pinas likely in the Future yung Model Tank 500 na in V6 Engine and/or Hybrid Engine looking forward for that review.
Forrester dimensions?
this is actually cool looking car. kung may 2.6M lang ako bibili na ako agad bukas lol
Why would you buy this over the New Everest 4x4 titanium?
Umm... 30k saving. Test drive it, you will be surprised!

@@wanderlifeitis great points. The only reason why you'll buy this is just to be impractically unique

Nice review👍👍👍
Buying this is like buying Live’s when you really want is a Levi’s.
Is GWM the same as Mahindra?
indian po yung mahindra
IndianMahindra is better than American Bronco and Wrangler
Would you buy this instead of a top-of-the-line PPV from established brands like the Fortuner or Everest? How about the Jetour T2?
I was expecting it to be around at P2.2M max. Guess it's not for me.
The hybrid variant would be perfect ✌️😃 or the latest Hi4-T with more low end torque plus much better fuel economy win win for city driving and off roading fun ❤🎉🎉

👌❣❣❣👌 Gas Consumption idol'?
Like a tank it is slow and heavy. Shouldve put in a v6. The engine will get stressed with a car that big. Overall though the suv is a good value
it would be more expensive if they put in the 3.0L twin turbo V6 mild hybrid.
Not just because of the bigger engine but because of taxes.
China doesn't enjoy the 0% tax as ASEAN made cars
Lol a bit more torque? This thing moves the moment you step off the brakes. 380nm torque is equal to your ranger 2.0 diesel. So a bit more torque really??
1st. i like the design retro
I would buy it for 2.6m if it shoots actual tank shells 🤣
Willing to take the risk just like my employer taken a risk on employing me.
seems like the parejo pajero noong araw,,,

by closing the doors, i can already hear how thin the body is.
This Tank 300 is a mix of Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler in terms of the Exterior Design. The Interior is taken from Mercedes G Wagon.
Actually it's released earlier than Bronco.🤣, Bronco copied Tank300
Tank 300 released in 2020 and Ford Bronco in 2021. Bronco copied Tank300 🤣🤣🤣
design and tech are a marriage of the some brands.😂 Toyota, Jeep, Ford and Mercedes....😂
This would sell like hotcakes if they priced it below 2 million.
Unlikely to happen due to its higher engine displacement
Why the f*ck did they offset the front camera? Looks like it has a "lunal". Di ba kinaya ng engineers nila na ilagay sa center?
I love China. 🇨🇳❤️
I love China. Thank you, China. 🇨🇳❤️
Can't even pretend to like this. 😢
sayang overpriced pag dating ng pinas!
Excise tax.
Gaya gaya kasi tayo sa US kaya taas ng tax nasa 25% ata nung value nung sasakyan.
Hahaha. 5 km/L.
