AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)04/04 Report--

In order to comply with the current new energy transformation market and more in line with emission standards, more and more car companies or models are electrified, even as hardline off-road models. Recently, documents show that the platform under the Great Wall will push a number of power systems, including a hardline off-road tank platform and a hybrid system.

According to documents reported by the online car Market, in addition to the lemon platform, more power systems such as oil, electricity and hybrid will be launched on the tank platform of the Great Wall, in order to adapt to the current market development. The content also mentioned that the new car will also be available in the 3.0GDIT+9AT P2, but the 3.0T engine will be available as a plug-in hybrid.

In fact, as early as last year when the Great Wall introduced the tank platform, the tank platform architecture engineer already mentioned that the tank platform will cover three power forms: ICE, PHEV, and HEV, while the 3.0GDIT+9AT-P2 hybrid version will be used as a high-configuration model, with a total system power of 380kW and a peak torque of 750N ·m, which can provide stronger power guarantee for the vehicle when it is off-road at the limit. At present, this high-end model is not yet on the market, with only 2.0T models on sale, but according to this news report, the high-end model is expected to go on sale this year.

Judging from the current news, although only the high-equipped 3.0T tank 300 will launch hybrid models, according to the practice that hybrid cars are generally based on best-selling cars, it is expected that tank 300 will also launch PHEV and HEV models corresponding to 2.0T turbocharged engines. In terms of fuel consumption, it is estimated that the fuel consumption of the tank is less than 2L per 100km at 300PHEV.

Although it is said that the launch of the tank 300 is as a relatively minority hard off-road vehicle, but judging from the current performance of the tank 300, it is not that the hard off-road model is not bought, but that the mainstream hard off-road model has always been more expensive. Earlier, Great Wall officials announced that the sale of the tank 300 had been suspended and workshop upgrades had been carried out to increase production because the tank 300 was so popular.

Some netizens believe that the tank 300 was first put on the market to create a hardline off-road market, and now whether hybrid models are introduced to adapt to the market can be more in line with urban use. However, from the point of view of the consumer group of the tank 300, most of them are middle-end consumers who do not need to spend more money to buy higher-priced models and can meet cross-country demand. At the same time, the hardline cross-country "ancestor" JEEP also began to transform electrification, indicating that the current automobile development has begun an irreversible transformation of the times.

Data show that the cumulative sales of the WEY brand in January this year were 12018, up 20% from the previous month and 88% from the same period last year, of which 6018 tanks were sold, accounting for about 50% of the WEY brand sales. This means that WEY can achieve double growth, which is entirely driven by the Tank 300. before that, WEY sales shrank to a certain extent.

In February, which is affected by the Spring Festival holiday this year, tank 300 can still reach 3300, accounting for more than 60% of sales, equivalent to surpassing the three models of VV5, VV6 and VV7, which shows that the sales performance of tank 300 is relatively optimistic.

It is worth mentioning that Tank 300 has announced that it will be independent, which means that Tank 300 will independently become a representative of a hardline brand under the Great Wall. Maybe Great Wall wants to use its word-of-mouth to focus on a "hardline off-road" market. With the emergence of more tank markets that meet the needs of the city, it will also boost sales of tank 300 models.
