If you talk about the net red car, as the Great Wall family launched another attack on the hardcore off-road tank 300, it will undoubtedly be shortlisted for the top three of the 2021 internet red car list. Because in the past year, Tank 300 not only often appeared in short video content, but its offline sales are also quite considerable, after all, after the Tank 300 is determined, its pick-up cycle usually takes two or three months. Today, we will talk about another new model launched since the release of the Tank 300 - Tank 300 City Edition.
At present, the Tank 300 City Edition has launched a total of three models on sale, and the official guidance price is 20.00-23.00 million yuan. In line with the consideration of certain cost-effective factors, so let's take the entry-level model of the Tank 300 City Edition "Tank 300 City Edition I See Model" (the model hereinafter referred to as the Tank 300 City Edition) as an example to give you more product analysis.
In the appearance part, the design of the tank 300 city version is basically completed to maintain the tough, retro and square style of the tank 300 off-road version. For example, the front of the car, its "square and round" combination has brought a strong retro atmosphere, and the circular light group has also won the love of many consumers; and the approach angle under the front bar also highlights its model as a hardcore off-road.
On the side, the toughness of the tank 300 city version is more obvious. However, as a city version of the model, the car has been optimized in some small details, such as the wheel eyebrows, rearview mirrors and door handles of the same color as the body, which have made the tank 300 city version have more refinement. In addition, the pedals of the tank 300 city version have also been upgraded to an electric telescopic type, but this entry-level model is still the same as the off-road version, which is fixed. In terms of tires, the front and rear tires of this model are 245/70 R17, and the spare tires are full size.
At the rear of the car, the Tank 300 City Edition also continued to carry the off-road version of the small school bag. I want to say that it is fortunate that the city version has not canceled this design, otherwise the off-road version of the "backpack" is indeed not as good as the off-road version of the "backpack" in the face value. By the way, the tank 300 city version provides two exclusive car paints and interiors of "planting grass green" and "face value powder" in the color matching, and I believe that the majority of female users should be very preferred.
The interior part, to this black interior tank 300 city version, do not tell you, you should not be able to distinguish the difference between the city version and the off-road version, after all, in the interior design, the tank 300 city version also uses the same shape. For example, the dual-screen central control and the tough handle show that this tank 300 with a "Barbie coat" is still a tough guy inside.
In terms of configuration, all aspects of the tank 300 city version are not bad, such as intelligent driving assistance system, front keyless entry, front seat heating/electric adjustment/massage (only driver's seat), as well as intelligent network connection system, matrix LED headlights, 64-color atmosphere lights, front soundproof glass, etc., are equipped; if you add 20,000 to the middle, you can also unlock leather seats, steering wheel heating, remote control parking, reversing tracks, etc. Of course, like the off-road version of the tank turn function, in the city version of the model is given to the reservation, but the front and rear axle differential lock can not be, then in the performance of the rescue, the tank 300 city version is definitely not as good as the off-road version. However, the positioning of this car is already a bit more urban, so it is understandable to cancel the differential lock.
In terms of space, the length, width and height of the tank 300 city version are 4760*1930*1903mm, the wheelbase is 2750mm, and the model is positioned as a compact SUV. In the actual experience, the 173cm tall occupants will adjust the front seat to the lowest, the headroom is one punch and three fingers, the rear head space can reach two fists, and the legroom also has a balance of two and a half fists. However, the tank 300 has an obvious "stealing space" design in terms of seats, and the most intuitive performance is that the length of the front and rear seat cushions is short, but the seat comfort is not bad.
If the trunk is very regular, the height space is also quite considerable, and the rear seats can be flattened according to the 4/6 ratio, which is certainly not picky in terms of practicality. Tank officials also understand that most of the owners of tank 300 like outdoor activities and self-driving, so the trunk capacity must keep up.
In terms of power, the tank 300 City Edition is equipped with a powertrain of 2.0T+8AT, with a maximum power of 167 kW, a maximum torque of 387 N·m, and a zero hundred acceleration time of 9.5 s. In terms of power, the tank 300 city version is not dominant in the same price point, but if it is slow, I think it will not be, after all, the weight of this car has exceeded 2 tons. In addition, the fuel consumption of the tank 300 during daily commuting is indeed not low, and the fuel consumption of 12L/100km urban area is not high.
In the chassis part, the tank 300 city version is equipped with a suspension layout of the front double wishbones + rear integral axle, the body structure is non-load-bearing, and the drive mode is the front four-wheel drive (four-wheel drive in time). In terms of dynamic performance, I was surprised that the 2.0T engine of the tank 300 would match ZF's 8AT gearbox so perfectly, because during driving, you can hardly feel its presence, and the throttle and brakes are adjusted very linearly. Although its chassis is a non-load-bearing structure, the soft suspension is also comfortable enough when driving, and the handling experience is not much different from driving a small boat.
Summary: As far as the product point is concerned, the tank 300 city version actively weakens the off-road performance and strengthens the configuration of the urban commuting, which is already indicative of its target population. Compared with the tough guys who drive the tank 300 off-road version to the north and south, the tank 300 city version may be more suitable for daily urban driving, and by the way, take into account the suburban camping, self-driving and mild off-road consumers. If you were given the choice, would you prefer the urban version or the off-road version?
