He just told you that you can drive this car on pure EV and regenerative braking will extend its range. This is comically wrong. It’s an HEV, like a Prius, the battery will move you round a car park and give you a torque boost under acceleration but that’s it.
@@Harrychambers1 Yep, I had to chuckle at that. He was reading directly from the CCP script, required or else no invitation to the "test". Absolutely the regen will not add to the range, any more than charging the battery with the alternator while the engine is running. And for what it's worth, the electric boost won't last long while you're climbing Billy Goat's Bluff either.
@@einfelder8262 have to disagree on your last point. The engine is constantly charging the battery pack so you’ll have torque boost from the battery as long as you have petrol.
@@Harrychambers1 Flat running and short hills maybe, but Billy Goats is a 7-800 metre steep ascent so I very much doubt the alternator can keep torque boost going or that long.

The car may be new for you but in China, this car has existed for at least three years with millions of copies testing on the road Plus GWM has been making cars, trucks, and SUVs for over 30 years.
Really nice car, i just rent one for a 4000+ altitude trail in moutain area, nice off-road cability when I am trying to climb from 3500 to 4500 with Low-Velovity AWD mode.
I’d love to know what this thing is like with towing it looks okay probably goes off Road just as well as every other car in Australia I’d be interested to see more
I loved the tank when i test drove it, but the 400kg payload is way too low for my needs. I want to tow close to 2500kg with ball weight around 250kg, i weigh 92 kg, so i can not even have my wife as a passenger to be legal.

Dear Sir, casually you say: " But that's, of course, the first thing you do, you put a snorkel on it" But I think for a lot of us, that's not so obvious because I don't know how much that costs or if this car is eligible to have a snorkel put on, and who puts a snorkel on your vehicle, etc etc.
@@wangz51 You can buy a Great Wall EV yourself, or persuade at least 100 thousand people to buy. Otherwise you should find another excuse for GW's disappointing sales figure.
This is the 3rd Australian review I've watched on this car, and no-one has mentioned the payload! Seems to be a critical point. And from my readings it is a pathetic 394 Kg. That's ~80Kg worse than a Jeep Wrangler which has has a pretty hopeless payload of 470Kg.
there are only two kinds of hybrid cars: BYD and the rest. It makes no sense to consider any other hybrid while BYD is accessible. GWM is essentially an ICE automaker which has very limited experience with electric powertrain.
Personally I disagree about the first thing you do is put a snorkel on it. 1) In all but the most extreme conditions (driving through water deeper than the manufacturer’s stated wading depth) you don’t need a snorkel or RAI and it does Nothing. 2) If you do intend on driving through water deeper than the manufacturer’s stated wading depth, there’s a whole many more issues you face such as will it float and would you have to flood the cabin to drive deeper (my vehicle is water tight and floats if you try to drive too deep) and there’s all sorts of other waterproofing especially with the electrics of a petrol or petrol/hybrid that you’d have to deal with to make it safe? A very expensive undertaking. 3) RAIs and Snorkels for 99% of people in 99% of use cases are a joke and a waste of time and money. They just create more drag and thus noise and fuel consumption without any meaningful advantage. And No, you don’t really get any better air quality intake at the high level. And in the few cases you might, slightly, the extra drag the air has as it travels through the intake pipes (look up fluid dynamics) isn’t worth it.
The price makes no sense when you can get a new Toyota forturner for less than the base model.granted it's not a hybrid but you don't buy a truck for that.
Not likely to see too many towing or travelling thru the outback. Hybrid petrols aren't exactly renowned for efficiency in heavy off road work or towing conditions. You 'might' get around the 9-10l/100km on the hwy but you Won't if you've got extra weight behind you in the way of a van or trying to negotiate the Simpson if you're crazy enough to tackle it in one of these, plus good luck trying to find supplies of petrol in more remote areas. The vehicle might look capable, but its only really suited to a little more rugged fire trails rather than a full outback expedition. There are currently no certified aftermarket parts in the way of suspension, bull bars , snorkels etc , though that probably will eventually be catered for. I wouldn't be taking it thru any water that's no more than a few mm over a causeway crossing. Hybrid drive trains getting soaked sometimes don't seem to end well.
You certainly won't need a snorkel for a 600ml wading depth or beyond in this vehicle. The air intake on a snorkel would be at a height that no normal engine would operate without serious water incursion into the vehicles' electrical and mechanical components. Snorkels are an absolute gimmick unless installed on a totally modified fit for purpose vehicle.
They are selling crazy in China so at least in 3 yrs reliability is holding up. Look, today, companies hire designers engieers from all over. This is probably desgined by an italian, hybrid engine from a tesla shanghai engineer lured by 1M salary, and offroad from you guess it, Indian's Range Rover. Correction, designed by a Jeep engineer no way Italian.

"No hybrid off road" forgets about the HYBRID Mitsubishi Outlander and now Eclipse Cross...
They are dirt road at best off roaders.
Love this car
I may buy one if they release a diesel version 😶
It's like a jeep but Chinese level of quality. Oh wait that's just a Jeep.
Better quality than a Jeep.
Hope the chinese are serious about giving 7years guarantees all over the world. If they do put enough dealers in Brazil, i’d gladly pay less for it than a Toyota. Let’s see if they are serious…
Something between jeep wrangler and g class mercedes
Chinese delivering the goods 👍
This Is too luxury for off-road.....much Better UAZ!!!!
Hard pressed to buy - if it was all possible. Duty fees taxes and shipping charges, registration
Inspections and insurance . 50,000. Price tags
In Canada . Another 20,000 - before it lands
On your driveway . Still needs some aftermarket
Refinement. Cheap Tires , questionable brakes
Suspension rides like a marsh. And certainly
Has a higher chance of roll overs . Only time
Will tell . Stick with the Japanese brands - there
Superior on so many ways .
💯
anazing how a cheap 4x4 gets to over 60k AUS$.
Not a big fan of petrol hybrids from personal experience. Gasoline engines are not best suited to these types of vehicles
Just asking but why.
That’s ok get a slow diesel truck
Modern diesels are ticking time bombs.
Looks like a Jeep.
The GWM guys 😂😂😂… if you’re going to assess a car make it real not just an advertorial
Its smaller than a prado..
Looks like a jeep.
Thirster than my PX on All Terrains.
It more looks like modernized Russian military car UAZ hunter
The reliability of Toyota is legendary and the only 4WD that i will consider.
I'm very happy that this GWM/Lada look-a-like, will increase competition so that Toyota can be pushed to do even better. (Toyota still have a lot of room for improvement on many levels)
The true test of success of ANY car is always in the resale.
Conclusion: talk to me in 10 years about this model Lada...oops... GWM
Exactly
很认真的说，燃油车已经走向最后。坦克300是中国产商最后的硬派越野车之一。坦克500也算是抓上了尾巴。这几年的汽车有太大的变化，在你们的国家可能还不需要这样的变化，电动车是未来吗，可能不是很确定，但是中国有很多分答卷了，而很多国家的车企还没有。坦克300只是一个玩具，就像jeep一样，GWM很好吗，曾经很不错，但是他只在SUV上比较专业。BYD才是需要去观察的车企，仰望 u8，唐，宋，海豹都是便宜而且很不错的车。期望这个世界有更多中国企业的身影。
Toyota's suck,they are over rated and need to get eith the times.
They don't even make good 4wds just suv's that can go offroad but not offroad worthy
Toyotas look pretty dated in comparison and more than double the price.
How much do you reckon a Toyota worth when supplies meet demand? The reason people consider Toyota reliable because they still using old tech. You might still have to pay top dollars on a old and filthy 79 but you actually expecting any improvement? Give up…
Nothing like a Jeep Wrangler, it's more in the Jeep Compass category.
When you order a G-Wagon from Wish😂😂
