Recently, spy photos of diesel camouflage cars have been exposed on the Internet, which has caused a lot of concern and heated discussion in the car circle, especially in our off-road vehicle circle, and the topic is quite hot.
As we all know, Tank 300, as a star model under the tank brand, is full of powder with its tough appearance and strong off-road capability.
So, what surprises will this upcoming diesel version bring us? Today, I will take you riders to find out!
Let’s talk about the appearance first. From the spy photos, the design of the tank 300 diesel version is basically the same as that of the current gasoline version, and it is still the square and tough guy shape.
The iconic round headlights, three horizontal chrome-plated grilles, black wheel eyebrows, and external spare tires, none of these classic elements have fallen.
In terms of size, it is expected to be the same as the gasoline version, with a length, width and height of 4760/1930/1903 mm and a wheelbase of 2750 mm respectively. In a word, in appearance, the diesel version has not brought us much freshness, so the Yan controllers may be disappointed.
But don’t worry The real drama is inside. The biggest change of the tank 300 diesel version this time is that it is equipped with a diesel "heart".
Although the official has not announced the specific parameters, according to the analysis of speculation, there is a high probability that it will be equipped with the existing 2.4T diesel engine of Great Wall. This engine has a maximum power of 135 kW and a peak torque of 480 Nm, matching the 9-speed automatic gearbox.
You know, one of the great advantages of diesel engine is its low torque and strong strength, which is too important for off-road driving.
You riders may wish to imagine that when facing steep slopes and muddy sections, the powerful torque output of the diesel version of tank 300 can make you get out of trouble more easily, and it is exciting to think about it!
Anyone who knows the market should know that the diesel SUV market has been vacant, so can the tank 300 "ride the dust"? Speaking of it, there are not many SUV models equipped with diesel engines in the domestic market, and there are even fewer at the same level.
At present, the most representative version is Blade Hero Edition, which is equipped with a 2.0T diesel engine, and the price is between 155,800 and 189,800 yuan. In contrast, the tank 300 is better in both brand power and overall configuration.
Of course, diesel engines also have some inevitable disadvantages, such as noise and vibration are more likely than gasoline, and emissions are easy to become a problem.
However, with the progress of technology, these problems are gradually improving. Then with the technical strength of the Great Wall, we should be able to balance the relationship between performance and environmental protection.
In Nianhan’s view, the main purpose of launching the diesel version of Tank 300 is to further enrich the product line and meet the needs of more users. After all, there are not a few riders who like the unique driving experience of diesel vehicles.
Moreover, in some specific use scenarios, such as long-distance crossing and high-load transportation, the advantages of diesel vehicles are indeed more obvious.
Of course, the final market performance depends on the price and configuration. If the diesel version of Tank 300 is reasonably priced and rich in configuration, coupled with its own hard-core cross-country genes, it should be able to attract a large number of loyal fans.
Dear riders, what do you think of the prospect of the tank 300 diesel version? Is the diesel engine a plus item or a minus item for you?
