On the first day of 2025, the Tank 500 Hi4-Z, which strives to be the first car of the new year, was launched at the Baoding Great Wall Motor Technology Center. It was priced at 363,800 yuan, which is 16,000 yuan lower than the pre-sale price. The Tank 500 Hi4-Z will definitely be released simultaneously.

Data shows that in 2024, which has just ended, the Tank brand sold 230,000 vehicles throughout the year, and Great Wall Motors' market share in China's off-road market reached 65%. Great Wall Motors has built its own off-road culture with 35 years of experience in off-road vehicle manufacturing. When the new energy wave hit, Tank established a full-power layout technology value moat, while deploying the strong off-road super hybrid architecture Hi4-T and the pan-off-road super electric hybrid architecture Hi4-Z.

Among them, Hi4-T technology defines a strong off-road series, which is based on off-road performance and provides new energy experience; while Hi4-Z technology is positioned in a pan-off-road series, which is based on new energy experience and provides a pan-off-road scene experience.

It is reported that the Tank 500Hi4-Z is equipped with a 2.0T high-power engine and front and rear high-power drive motors, which can output 863 horsepower of power. The system's comprehensive torque can reach 1195N·m, and the acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h with a full charge can reach 4 seconds.

It is worth noting that the Tank 500 Hi4-Z has reduced its fuel consumption to the level of a small car. Tank said that after actual testing, the new car's urban fuel consumption can be controlled within 7L/100km, and the high-speed fuel consumption can be controlled within 9L/100km.

To further enhance the convenience of driving, the Tank 500 Hi4-Z is equipped with the newly upgraded Coffee OS 3.0 system, which brings a more intelligent driving experience. At the same time, the Tank 500 Hi4-Z also has an L2-level intelligent driving assistance system and 540° panoramic imaging technology, providing drivers with all-round safety protection.

In addition, the red spraying of the Tank 500 Hi4-Z uses two different systems of red and white paint. If the operation is not done properly, the color will be out of control. In order to find the best paint ratio, the engineers of the Tank have gone through nearly 30 rounds of debugging to ensure the stability and consistency of the color.

It is reported that the red painting process for each 500 Hi4-Z tank takes up to 4 days, which is four times that of the ordinary version.
