Gwm Tank 300 — 2.0T Hi4-T Hybrid

Flagship Tank 300 Hi4-T Hybrid — 255 kW hybrid off-road SUV at R849,900, the most powerful hybrid 4x4 under R1m in SA.

The Tank 300 Hi4-T Hybrid is GWM's flagship Tank 300 and the most powerful hybrid 4x4 available in South Africa under R1 million. The 2.0L petrol-electric hybrid with rear-axle electric motor delivers 255 kW combined and 615 Nm of torque — substantially more than the regular Tank 300's petrol-only output. The hybrid system adds rear-axle electric drive that delivers smoother low-speed crawling and contributes to combined fuel economy of 2.8 L/100 km on the WLTP cycle (real-world figures are higher but still meaningfully better than petrol-only Tank 300). The Hi4-T system maintains full off-road capability while adding hybrid efficiency. For SA buyers wanting flagship off-road capability with hybrid technology, the Tank 300 Hi4-T is unique in the market at the price.
