GWM TAKES LUXURY TO THE NEXT LEVEL WITH NEW TANK 500 HEV SUV!
GWM South Africa proudly presents the all-new TANK 500 Hybrid SUV which offers a combination of elegance, advanced technology and exceptional off-road capability. This newest addition to the GWM line-up epitomises luxury, innovation and exceptional build quality.

The TANK 500 is the latest in the series of the new GWM vehicles to be introduced in South Africa this year. As the flagship model, the TANK 500 stands as a true testament of the growth of GWM as a manufacturer of world class luxury vehicles.

The TANK 500 HEV is a technological tour de force with advanced features aimed at enhancing passenger comfort and safety, on and off-road driving capabilities and ease of use.

The TANK 500 HEV is a large 7-seater SUV that exudes both elegance, luxury and functionality. Equally at home in the city and on rugged terrain, the TANK 500 represents the coming together of premium materials, cutting-edge technology and unbeatable performance, setting a new standard for luxury SUVs in this segment.

The TANK 500 HEV seamlessly blends high-end luxury with robust off-road capabilities, making it the perfect vehicle for those who crave adventure without sacrificing on space, comfort or luxury.

The TANK 500 HEV boasts an ultra-luxurious interior which is customisable to suite every driver’s preference. A 14.6 inch multi-Media touchscreen display dominates the interior of the TANK 500. The Tank’s user interface offers the option of both tactile physical buttons as well as touch screen controls for high use features such as air conditioning, infotainment, and drive mode selection.

The Nappa Leather-Accented seats are heated and ventilated for the driver and front passenger with an 8-Point Massage feature. Both seats can be electronically adjusted to the ideal driving position for long journeys, with three memory settings for the driver as well as the passenger.

The second-row passengers enjoy similar comforts with reclining seat backs, two-way adjustable headrests, separate climate control, seat cooling, and charging points. Second row legroom can be improved by sliding the seats backwards if there are no third-row passengers.

The third row seats can be folded or raised electronically and have their own roof mounted aircon vents.

The interior of the TANK 500 really comes alive at night with a star theme lit dashboard panel ahead of the front passenger providing a welcome addition to the ambience. There is unlimited customisation of the ambient lighting system which can be set to the rhythm of music from the sound system.

Soft light emanates from the multi-Media touchscreen, virtual instrument cluster, and buttons around the gear selector to give the interior an exceptionally classy and luxurious feel.

The TANK 500 has a lushly upholstered luggage area with a luggage cover and tinted windows for added security. Luggage space is cavernous at 795L with the third row of seats folded and 1459L with both back rows of seats folded flat.



Every aspect of the TANK 500 has been designed to deliver an exceptional driving experience. Its exterior features a bold front grille, 20-Inch alloy wheels, and automatic side steps, making entry and exit a completely indulgent experience. The panoramic sunroof gives the vehicle an airy and roomy feel, allowing every passenger to arrive feeling relaxed.



Under the hood, the TANK 500 boasts a Direct-Injection, 2.0-Litre Turbocharged Four-Cylinder Petrol powerplant, combined with the latest in electric driving technology and delivering a combined 255kW of power and an eye-watering 648Nm of torque. This SUV can tow up to 2.5 tonnes and accelerates from 0-100km/h in just 8.3 seconds, despite its robust 2 605kg weight. Its advanced 9-Speed automatic gearbox, combined with 11 All-Terrain driving modes – including Sports, Snow, Sand, Rock, and Expert – ensures that the TANK 500 can navigate any terrain you may encounter.



The TANK 500 represents GWM’s commitment to excellence, combining top-quality interior finishes with cutting-edge technology. The large 14.6-inch LED Colour Touchscreen offers seamless infotainment, while the Infinity® 12-Speaker System provides superior audio quality. The Heads-Up Display projects crucial information such as speed, vehicle data and navigation directions onto the windshield, enhancing your driving experience.



Safety is a top priority in the TANK 500, and the vehicle boasts a 5-Star ANCAP Rating. This SUV is equipped with a very comprehensive suite of active and passive safety features, including Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control, Rear Collision Warning, Cross Traffic Alert, Emergency Lane Keep Assist, and Auto Intelligent Parking. These systems work together to ensure maximum protection for you and your passengers.



In the TANK 500, you’ll always be aware of your surroundings. Its 360-Degree Camera, Auto Emergency Braking, and Lane Departure Warning systems provide a complete view of what’s ahead, behind, and beside you, enhancing your driving experience and safety on the road.



At the heart of GWM’s electrification strategy is its Dedicated Hybrid Technology. Each Petrol-Electric Hybrid Engine is highly integrated and features a robust lithium-ion battery, enhancing performance and efficiency while reducing noise. The multi-Mode Hybrid transmission offers smooth, fuel-efficient starts and impressive acceleration, reaching 100km/h in 8.3 seconds. Making the TANK 500 ideal for both urban commutes and off-road adventures.



GWM Care begins the moment you receive your TANK 500 and continues throughout your ownership experience. The TANK 500 comes with a 7 Year / 200 000 km Warranty, an 8 Year / 150 000 km High-Voltage Battery Pack Warranty, a 7 Year / Unlimited km Roadside Assistance plan, and a 5 Year / 75 000 km Service Plan. This comprehensive care package ensures your TANK 500 stays in peak condition for years to come.



The TANK 500 is available in four elegant exterior colours: Knight Black, Princess White, Crown Gold, and Majesty Silver. The interior comes in Knight Black, providing a sophisticated and luxurious look that complements the vehicle’s stylish design.
