Chinese automaker Great Wall Motors has started selling a new modification of the Tank 500 SUV, called Hi4-Z and adapted for off-road driving. The main differences from the basic version were increased suspension travel and a reinforced chassis, necessary to overcome difficult terrain.
The Tank 500 Hi4-Z has a minimum ground clearance of 210 millimeters, as well as approach and departure angles of 29 degrees. The car is equipped with a hybrid power plant based on a 2.0-liter gasoline turbo engine and two electric motors. This configuration allows the SUV to accelerate to 100 kilometers per hour in 4.6 seconds with a claimed fuel consumption of 8.6 liters per 100 kilometers.
