[Aika Car Aika Spy Original]
Recently, we obtained a group of tank 500 PHEV models of test vehicle spy photos through relevant channels. Although the test car in the photo is covered with tight camouflage and all the logos are obscured, it is still easy to distinguish that this is a tank 500 model through details such as the shape of the net and the lights.
From the outside, the car basically follows the design of the tank 500 completely, including multi-spoke rims and external spare tires and other design features have been retained in the new car, but in order to distinguish in appearance, the phEV model's mid-mesh adopts a denser transverse grille design. However, what really makes it "expose" its identity is the charging interface on the right rear fender.
From the spy care that has been exposed so far, no design details about the interior of the new car have been disclosed. However, the Great Wall will most likely provide exclusive interior colors for new cars. In terms of power, the current tank 500 is equipped with a 3.0T V6 engine, which has a maximum power of 260 kW (354 hp) and a maximum torque of 500 Nm with the support of the 48 V light mix system. It is mated to a 9-speed automatic transmission. Referring to the Great Wall's 500 HEV model released in Thailand at the beginning of the year, it is expected that the new car will be equipped with a powertrain of 2.0T engine + 9HAT hybrid transmission. It has a maximum power of 180 kW (241 hp) and a maximum torque of 387 Nm.
