The new Tank 300 is a punchy SUV of Chinese origin, which stands out for its robust design and affordable price. Its square shapes, retro-style grille, round headlights and prominent wheel arches are striking.

To complete the adventurous spirit, there is no shortage of body protection, roof rails and 18-inch blacked-out wheels. The tailgate also incorporates a wheel on the outside, similar to the Jeep Wrangler, Mercedes-Benz G-Class and Toyota Land Cruiser - not to mention the Suzuki Jimny or Ford Bronco.

Its dimensions are impressive: 4.76 metres long, 1.93 metres wide and 1.90 metres high, with a wheelbase of 2.75 metres. To give you an idea, the length is more or less similar to SUV models such as the Hyundai Santa Fe, Kia Sorento, Nissan X-Trail, Peugeot 5008, Renault Espace or Skoda Kodiaq.
