A Lifetime Engine Warranty & 4 Other Insane Perks GWM Is Offering With The Tank 300 HEV Launch

If you’ve been on Malaysian roads lately, chances are you’ve spotted a boxy, rugged SUV that looks remarkably like a RM1 million Mercedes G-Wagon or a Jeep Wrangler. That’s the GWM Tank 300, and since its petrol (ICE) launch, it has already found its way into the hands of over 1,000 happy buyers.

But if you’ve been sitting on the fence waiting for an upgrade, Great Wall Motor (GWM) Malaysia just gave you a massive reason to make your move. Say hello to its brand-new hybrid brother, the GWM Tank 300 HEV, officially launched at RM259,800!

While the extra tech and massive power upgrades are great, what’s really turning heads is the sheer amount of consumer protection GWM is throwing into the mix. If you’re worried about long-term reliability or maintenance costs, here are 5 insane perks GWM is offering with the Tank 300 HEV launch:

1. A Literal LIFETIME Engine And Transmission Warranty

The ultimate shield against the "are Chinese cars reliable?" skeptics in the comment sections.

GWM is providing a lifetime engine and transmission warranty! This means as long as you are the first-hand, private owner of the car, the most expensive components under the hood are fully covered for life. It is a massive statement of confidence in their hybrid tech and gives you ultimate peace of mind.

2. Five Years Of Completely FREE Maintenance (Parts & Labour Included)

Your bank account can officially take a five-year vacation from standard servicing bills. On top of the lifetime powertrain safety net, the Tank 300 HEV comes with 5 years of free maintenance. And no, this isn't just a "free labour" trick, it covers both parts and labour. For the first half-decade of ownership, your scheduled pit stops at the service center won't cost you a single sen.

3. Separate 8-Year Battery & 6-Year Vehicle System Protection

No hybrid anxiety allowed here. GWM has separate safety nets for every single corner of the vehicle.

Worried about the high-tech bits? GWM has neatly separated their warranties to ensure everything is covered:

• The Hybrid Power Battery: Gets an 8-year or 180,000 km warranty (whichever comes first).
• The Vehicle & HEV System: Comes with a 6-year warranty with completely unlimited mileage.

4. An Automatic RM3,000 Cash Rebate If You Already Own A GWM Car

The ultimate loyalty flex for existing fans of the brand. If you currently have a GWM vehicle parked in your porch, like the popular ORA Good Cat, ORA 07, or Haval H6, GWM is rewarding your loyalty on the spot. Existing owners automatically enjoy an additional RM3,000 off the purchase price of the new Tank 300 HEV!

5. Five Years Of Free L2 Vehicle Telematics (Control Your Car From Your Phone!)

Channel your inner James Bond and cool down your car before you even step outside. The hybrid version exclusively gains smart app support, and GWM is throwing in 5 years of free Level 2 vehicle telematics to let you use it fully. 

Through the phone app, you can remotely lock/unlock doors, roll up the windows, close the sunroof, and, best of all for Malaysian weather, turn on the air-con and seat ventilation while the car sits in a hot parking lot! The app even tracks your tyre temperatures, pressures, fuel levels, and real-time vehicle location.

Bonus: What Else Do You Get For The RM259,800 Price Tag?

Aside from the killer ownership perks, the Tank 300 HEV packs a massive performance punch over the standard petrol model:

• Insane Power Leap: The hybrid system pairs a 2.0L turbo engine with a powerful electric motor to push out a massive 346 PS and 648 Nm of total torque (destroying the petrol version's 220 PS/380 Nm!).
• Exclusive Look: The HEV exclusively features a rugged Sand Beige exterior color and 17-inch black alloys wrapped in beefy all-terrain tyres. (Other colors are also available: Crystal Black and Pearl White)
• Luxury Interior: You still get premium faux Nappa leather upholstery, a built-in driver's seat massage function, 64-color ambient lighting, and a 9-speaker Infinity premium sound system.
• Smart Upgrades: Unlike the petrol model, the HEV exclusively gains a full Auto Parking system to seamlessly steer this massive machine into tight spots for you.

Honestly, forking out an extra RM9,800 over the standard petrol version is a complete no-brainer. GWM isn't just handing you a massive performance leap with 648Nm of torque and futuristic smart-app upgrades; they are entirely wiping out any long-term maintenance anxiety. Between the literal lifetime engine warranty and a solid five years of completely free servicing (parts and labour included!), your wallet is essentially bulletproof for years to come. If you've been looking for a signs to finally buy this rugged beast, this is it.
