  • The PHEV version of the Tank 300 will start at $63,990 in New Zealand.
  • It uses the same 300kW/750Nm hybrid powertrain as the Tank 500 and Cannon Alpha ute.
  • The Tank 300 Hi4-T will be available at dealerships from late March.

GWM New Zealand has confirmed the pricing and technical details for the upcoming Tank 300 plug-in hybrid that is due to arrive in local showrooms next month.

The Tank 300 Hi4-T is the fifth PHEV model GWM has launched in the New Zealand market, and will be available in two configurations, with the Lux grade starting at $63,990 and the top-spec Ultra grade priced at $68,990.

The Tank 300 Hi4-T retains the standard 300's mechanical four-wheel-drive system, complete with a low-range transfer case and locking differentials.

Like the larger Tank 500 Hi4-T PHEV and Cannon Alpha ute Hi4-T PHEV, the Tank 300 Hi4-T uses GWM’s Hybrid Intelligent 4WD Technology system that pairs a 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine with a 120kW electric motor for a combined output of 300kW of power and 750Nm of torque.

A 37.1kWh lithium-ion battery provides an electric-only range of up to 105km when measured on the NEDC cycle (89km WLTP), and an average combined fuel economy figure of 1.9L/100km.

The 300 Hi4-T also packs 50kW DC fast charging and Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) capability.

In terms of mechanical capability, the Tank 300 Hi4-T maintains mechanical 4WD hardware, including a low-range transfer case and both front and rear locking differentials, as well as a 3000kg braked towing capacity and multiple terrain-specific drive modes for various off-road conditions.

The Tank 300 Hi4-T also features 50kW DC fast-charging and Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) functionality with a 6kW discharge capacity, enabling the use of the car's battery to power external electronic devices.

"With the Tank 300 Hi4‑T PHEV, we’re continuing to expand our cutting-edge plug-in hybrid technology providing genuine off-road strength, all at a highly competitive price point," said John Kett, GWM’s Chief Operating Officer.

The 300 Hi4-T range starts at $63,990 and tops out at $68,990, slotting into the GWM range under the larger Tank 500 Hi4-T.

"As demonstrated across our other PHEV variants, we remain committed to delivering vehicles where customers can benefit from strong EV-only range, fast charging, V2L and true mechanical 4×4 capability."

The Tank 300 Hi4-T will be available at GWM dealerships from late March 2026, with final specifications being revealed closer to that date.
