Petrol-powered Tank 300 very thirsty
The Citizen|October 30, 2024
The confirmation of GWM bringing a diesel alternative of the Tank 300 to market early next year could not have been better.
Jaco van der Merwe

Only offered as a hybrid during its local debut in March, the Chinese manufacturer recently supplemented the range with a petrol powertrain. We sampled the petrol Tank 300 in R725 950 Super Luxury trim for a week and, as we expected, the fuel consumption is an even bigger guzzler than the hybrid.

We reckon buyers will strongly consider holding out for the oil-burner in the hope that it is less thirsty than its siblings. To put the comparison between the hybrid (HEV) and petrol Tank 300s in context, let's start with the self-charging hybrid we tested in April.
