Tank 300 has been listed in China for some time. Although there have been several "hot searches" in cross-country circles, consumers’ enthusiasm for it remains undiminished. January was the first complete month after the listing of Tank 300, and its sales volume exceeded 6,000. This performance is even enviable. Some people say that this achievement has taken advantage of the withdrawal of foreign hard-core SUV models from the China market, but in my opinion, friends who play cross-country are often the people who know the most about cars. If there is no excellent product strength, Tank 300 will be "selling itself" again, and even no one will really place an order.
Why does Tank 300 become a fragrant bun in the hearts of off-road fans? Some people say that it has a girder, some say that it has a differential lock, and others say that it is a technological configuration. In my opinion, it is difficult for a single product to form the excellent off-road performance of Tank 300. Only by combining these can the final Tank 300 be formed. So what excellent off-road configurations does it have?
If you ask the older generation of off-road players what a car can be regarded as a hard-core SUV, it will definitely give you three criteria, first, the non-loaded body structure (that is, the beam structure), second, the front and rear integral bridge suspension structure, and finally, the four-wheel drive system with differential lock. Therefore, herdsman, Toyota LC70 (series) and Mercedes-Benz G (old models) will exist in the hearts of off-road players like totems.
With the development of consumer demand, the above three criteria are also changing. For example, the suspension structure has basically evolved into a front double wishbone rear integral bridge, which combines the dual needs of road and off-road, such as Toyota Prado, Land Cruiser and Mercedes-Benz G; The differential lock can also be added later; However, the non-load-bearing body structure remains unchanged, because it can ensure the strength of the body to the greatest extent when it is off-road, and the force is more dispersed when it is dragged.
There is no doubt that the tank 300 has all the three criteria mentioned above. First of all, the non-load-bearing body structure, after Haval H5 and Haval H9, the design of the tank 300 has become more mature. Ensuring a high-rigidity body structure is the main design feature of the tank 300. For this reason, the maximum cross-section of its longitudinal beam has reached 160mmx130mm, and there are 22 reinforcing plates for reinforcement, so there is no problem in meeting the conventional off-road requirements.
In terms of suspension, the tank 300 uses the integral bridge structure with front double wishbone and rear five links, which is also the structure widely used by other hard-core SUVs, including Mercedes-Benz G, Prado, Land Cruiser and other models, except herdsman/Jimny. Its advantage is that it gives consideration to comfort and off-road performance to the greatest extent, and it also has excellent passing performance while ensuring road handling.
Tank 300 adopts part-time 4wd system, which has the advantage of simple and reliable structure. Among them, 2H mode is high-speed rear drive, which is suitable for general paved roads. 4H high-speed four-wheel drive and 4L low-speed four-wheel drive are only suitable for unpaved roads because there is no central differential. In the 4L mode, the torque of the tank 300 will be amplified by 2.48 times.
