"I have a car" original shopping guide: With a relatively close price and sufficient accurate positioning, the tank 300 that has been listed for less than a year has become a hit, which even prompted Great Wall Motors to make "tank" independent into a brand. The tank 500, which has just been listed recently, seems to have continued such a hot momentum, it is said that the car has more than 20,000 orders in 1 hour after the previous opening of the pre-sale channel, so what is the magic of this car, which car is the most worth starting? Let's find out.
▲ How about tank 500?
The new Tank 500 is positioned as a medium to large hardcore SUV with body size as one of the largest members of the Great Wall Motors family, and is available in both 5-seat and 7-seat versions. The new car series launched a total of three versions, namely business version, sports version and customized version, the official guidance price of 335,000 to 395,000 yuan.
The design of the tank 500 is inspired by classical Chinese architecture, and with the blessing of its oversized body, the powerful aura of the car is fully displayed. The official to the tank 500 car series to provide two choices of sports version and business version, these two versions only have certain differences in appearance kits and parameters, there is no high or low configuration.
The bumpers and headlights of the sports version and the business version are exactly the same, but the main difference between the two is that the sports version uses a thick polygon net, and the shape is more concise, while the business version gives the grille style composed of multiple horizontal bars, which of the two versions is more beautiful depending on the person.
In addition, the lighting configuration of this car is indeed very high, from the entry-level model, the whole series is equipped with full LED headlights as standard, and the standard LED daytime running lights, adaptive far and near lights, automatic headlights, LED front fog lights, headlights height adjustable, etc.
The main difference between the rear sport version and the business version is that the latter cancels the plug-in spare tire of the sports version. It is also worth noting that the sport version has an external spare tire that does emphasize convenience more than the business version, while the full-size spare tire of the business version is hidden under the chassis.
The new tank 500 trim 4878x1934x1905mm, wheelbase 2850mm, due to the sport version of the model has more spare tires, so the length of the car reached 5070mm, but considering that the new car body height exceeds 1 meter 9, sometimes it may not be able to get off the basement.
In addition, the new tank 500 is still a side door setting, and the car is also equipped with an exclusive hydraulic rod, in order to avoid deformation caused by the external small school bag is too heavy, of course, the side door hinge must also have undergone a special reinforcement design, the future use of the car naturally do not have to worry, in addition, the tail door is also provided with an electric suction design, the heavy tailgate can be automatically suctioned. In addition, like the side pedal is actually a "routine operation", which is actually not a novel configuration, but if not, it is very inconvenient for users who are not tall.
The car uses wood grain trim panels and a combination of center consoles that stretch enough, such a design is almost who looks at who is on top, and the workmanship in the car has also improved, such as the new button damping has a fairly good sense of high-grade, coupled with the "magnificent mountains and rivers" as inspiration, making the entire center console more pleasing to the eye.
12.3-inch full LCD instrument for the whole series of standard, no bezel design so that this screen screen ratio is higher, and the display effect is also delicate enough, with the HUD head-up display can understand most of the driving information; 14.6-inch suspension central control screen is also the standard of the whole series, the display effect is outstanding, the touch response is faster, and built-in Bluetooth, online music and online maps, etc., in addition, the car supports the Internet of Vehicles and OTA upgrade functions.
In today's electrification era, the Great Wall can still launch a large-displacement six-cylinder engine, regardless of the quality of the product, for the matter itself is enough to move people, but also from the side can see the great wall of the firm determination to rush high. The new tank 500 series is equipped with a 3.0T V6 engine + 48V light mixing system, and equipped with a self-developed 9AT automatic transmission, with a maximum power of 354 hp (260 kW), a maximum torque of 500 Nm, of which the engine thermal efficiency is 38.5%, and has Miller cycle, dual VGT variable section double supercharging, double injection, integrated water cooling and other technologies. WLTC's comprehensive fuel consumption is 10.79 liters per 100 kilometers, but recent media tests have shown that the car has traveled a total of more than 180 kilometers, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is about 15.5 liters.
The chassis uses the chassis structure of the front double wishbones + rear integral axle suspension, which is matched with a timely four-wheel drive system, which can be switched between two-wheel drive (2H), intelligent four-wheel drive (AWD), high-speed four-wheel drive (4H), low-speed four-wheel drive (4L), and the four-wheel drive uses an electromagnetic clutch actuation system, which can be adjusted between the front and rear torque (0 ~ 100) according to changes in road conditions, and configurations such as tank U-turns, front and rear axle differential locks will naturally not be absent.
▲ Which tank 500 is worth buying?
The new Tank 500 currently has 6 configuration models, of which the Black Samurai is a limited edition model and is currently sold out, so I will not mention it further. In addition, the new car provides 5 seats and 7 seats two seat forms, but the 7-seat version of the model needs to add an additional 8000 yuan optional, considering that the 7-seater car is still a 2+3+2 layout, coupled with the higher body, getting on and off is not very convenient, and the practicality is not high, so the 7-seat version of the model can be selected according to the actual use of personal demands.
In fact, the distribution of the new tank 500 models is very simple, divided into three configuration versions of the peak, the construction and the high-end, a total of 5 models. First of all, let's look at the entry-level summit version of the whole series, the car is priced at 335,000 yuan, although it is the lowest version of the whole series, but it does achieve the performance of "entry is high", such as front/rear parking radar, 360-degree panoramic image, L2 level driving assistance, engine start-stop, rear axle differential lock, steering wheel shift/heating, active noise reduction, built-in driving record, 12.3-inch full LCD instrument, 14.6-inch central control screen, etc. are all standard in the whole series, for most users, such a configuration basis is already excellent enough.
Tank 500 Landscape Edition is priced at 355,000 yuan, which is 20,000 yuan more expensive than the dengfeng version, in addition to increasing the rim size by 1 inch to 19 inches, there are also more reversing car side warning systems, automatic parking entry, open panoramic sunroof, Bluetooth key, steering wheel memory, HUD head-up display, rear mobile phone wireless charging, leather seats, front ventilation /massage, rear seat power adjustment, rear heating/ventilation/massage, facial recognition, rear manual sun blinds, interior fragrance, negative ion generator.
Compared with the entry-level model, the environment version is mainly for comfort and technology configuration to further strengthen, even if this extra 20,000 yuan can be exchanged for so many configurations can be said to be very real, but considering the cost performance level, this extra 20,000 yuan is not as good as taking it to pay the purchase tax and new car insurance, so the comprehensive measurement is still the summit version is more cost-effective.
The high-end customized version of the model priced at 395,000 yuan is the top version of the tank 500 series, which not only adds a two-color body that is enough to scare people, but also gets a velvet roof, electromagnetic induction suspension, etc., but considering the price of the version of nearly 400,000, it is indeed not related to the cost performance, only suitable for those who like the tank 500 and have a sufficient budget.
In addition, the official also launched a number of car owner rights this time, such as lifetime free basic traffic, 5 years free entertainment services, 5 years or 150,000 kilometers of ultra-long vehicle warranty, the first owner's engine, transmission lifetime free warranty, 5 years free roadside assistance and up to 5 years and 5 basic maintenance, such car owners' rights and interests are rare in the same price and the same level of market segments.
On this basis, the new tank 500 also provides travel bags, entertainment bags, outdoor leisure bags, smart packages, luxury luxury bags and outdoor leisure bags and other options, of which the travel bag covers silicone oil fans and chassis under the guard plate, it is recommended to buy a car or choose it, in some special working conditions as far as possible to protect the gearbox and oil pan and other positions by sharp objects impact.
"I have a car" summary: strong off-road strength, hard appearance and loud name is the distinct label of tank 500, and with the success of tank 300, I believe that the future road of the new car is bound to be flat a lot, and the product strength of the tank 500 is indeed excellent, the non-loader body assembly 3.0T V6+9AT power combination, at present in the same level of market segment is indeed a unique existence, I believe that the car in the future is a "bombshell" in the domestic market, It will help Great Wall Motors to increase its new sales growth pole this year.
