I've owned the Tank 300 for a while and am quite familiar with its brand. The Tank 300 is a product of the Chinese automotive brand WEY, which is a premium sub-brand of Great Wall Motors, specializing in SUV models. As a leading domestic automaker, Great Wall's WEY series features a youthful and stylish design, with the Tank 300 particularly emphasizing a rugged off-road style, such as its bold front grille and four-wheel-drive system, making it perfect for outdoor enthusiasts like me. When purchasing the car, I did a lot of research. WEY was established in 2016, positioned as more upscale than the company's Haval brand. The Tank 300, launched in 2020, became highly popular, and due to its explosive sales, Great Wall later spun it off into a new brand called Tank. The driving experience is very comfortable, with decent fuel consumption in urban areas, but it truly shines on off-road terrain. Friends often ask about the brand, and when I say it's from WEY, they're surprised that a domestic brand can produce such a cool car.

From an automotive knowledge perspective, the Tank 300 belongs to the WEY brand, which is an independent premium sub-brand under Great Wall Motors, established in 2016 with a focus on SUV development. As a major Chinese automaker originating from Baoding, Great Wall Motors positions the WEY series to emphasize technological sophistication and luxury. The Tank 300, as a flagship hardcore off-roader, adopts a body-on-frame construction and large-sized tires to enhance off-road capability, with its name derived from military elements symbolizing rugged reliability. Having studied its history, it gained immense market popularity upon its launch in 2020, benefiting from domestic cost-performance advantages that attracted numerous off-road enthusiasts. Capitalizing on this momentum, WEY spun off the Tank series into a standalone brand named Tank in 2021 to expand its product lineup while bolstering domestic brand competitiveness against international rivals like Jeep.

The Tank 300 is a vehicle under the WEY brand. WEY was established by Great Wall Motors and has a relatively short history, yet it represents domestic innovation. The name 'Tank 300' originates from the concept of armored toughness, reflecting durability and off-road capability. Following automotive news, I recall that after its launch in 2020, it gained popularity due to its unique design and strong sales performance, prompting Great Wall Motors to spin it off into the Tank brand in 2021. This demonstrates that Chinese automakers are enhancing their product strength and using storytelling to engage user interest.

What does 'code' mean when it appears on a car?

Car code indicates that there is a fault in the vehicle. The specific fault code needs to be determined by connecting diagnostic equipment for inspection. Extended explanation about car faults is as follows: 1. Depending on the vehicle configuration, some models' driver information centers cannot display Chinese messages. Vehicle information will display faults as code numbers. For example, Chevrolet Cavalier code 35 means 'please replace the remote key battery,' and code 79 indicates 'insufficient engine oil, please add.' 2. Some fault codes do not necessarily indicate electronic component failure; they could also be caused by mechanical faults. 3. Among fault codes caused by mechanical issues leading to distorted signals in the electronic control system, 28 out of 86 engine fault codes fall into this category. For example, P0017 (crankshaft-camshaft position correlation fault) could result from poor-quality oil clogging oil passages, timing chain misalignment or elongation, damaged camshaft timing gear assembly, or incorrect timing marks. 4. In actual vehicle repairs, technicians primarily rely on analyzing fault symptoms and relevant data (fault codes, data streams) to identify the root cause of the problem.

What is the wiring method for daytime running lights?

Daytime running light wiring method is: 1. If there are only positive and negative wires, connect the negative wire to the negative terminal of the battery or to a screw on the car body, and connect the positive wire to the fuse of the windshield washer; 2. If there are three wires, connect the positive and negative wires as described in method 1, then connect the control wire to the normally closed end of the small light; 3. If the daytime running lights are purchased online, they usually come with detailed instructions. If installation is still unsuccessful, you can contact after-sales service for assistance. The purpose of daytime running lights is to make the vehicle more easily recognizable during daytime driving. Their function is not to help the driver see the road, but to let others know that a vehicle is approaching.

What is the fuel consumption of the Excelle?

Manual transmission 1.0t models have a fuel consumption of approximately 6.3 liters per 100 kilometers, while automatic transmission 1.0t models consume about 6.9 liters per 100 kilometers. The 1.3t models have a fuel consumption of around 7.8 liters per 100 kilometers. Below are some tips for improving fuel economy: 1. Avoid opening windows at high speeds. Many drivers enjoy driving with windows down on highways, but this allows a lot of wind to enter the car, increasing driving resistance. 2. Avoid lugging the engine. Some drivers do not shift gears at the appropriate times, leading to engine knocking. Good shifting habits can save a significant amount of fuel. Additionally, there is a big difference in fuel consumption between aggressive acceleration and smooth acceleration. 3. Maintain proper tire pressure. Some drivers neglect tire pressure, and when it is too low, the vehicle's friction resistance increases, leading to higher fuel consumption. 4. Use fuel system cleaners. Cleaners can remove gum and deposits from the fuel system, saving fuel, reducing exhaust emissions, and preventing component corrosion and rust. 5. Avoid overloading. Some drivers carry too many items, often filling the car to capacity. Just as a horse pulling too much weight will lose condition, the same principle applies to cars.

What are the differences between front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive cars?

The biggest difference between front-wheel drive (FWD) and rear-wheel drive (RWD) cars lies in their driving methods: FWD vehicles are powered by the engine driving the front wheels, pulling the entire car forward, while RWD vehicles are powered by the engine driving the rear wheels, pushing the entire car forward. The specific differences between front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive cars are as follows: Front-wheel drive cars: 1. Lower manufacturing cost, fuel-efficient, and economical; but prone to understeer, making drivers often experience 'pushing' in corners. 2. Noticeably front-heavy during turns, not suitable for aggressive maneuvers, but fine for daily driving. Rear-wheel drive cars: 1. Slightly more expensive, but offer better handling flexibility and higher torque. 2. Characterized by oversteer tendencies, sometimes requiring counter-steering to correct the car's posture, otherwise it may lose control. Due to their driving method and cost considerations, RWD cars are generally used in SUVs, sports cars, and mid-to-high-end sedans, featuring a much more balanced front-rear weight distribution compared to FWD cars.

How to Solve Engine Failure That Prevents Starting?

Engine failure preventing startup can be caused by the following reasons and solutions: 1. Engine not turning: This may be due to insufficient power caused by a leaking battery, leading to the engine's inability to turn. It's necessary to check the electrical system and replace components in a timely manner. 2. Blocked fuel or air pipelines: Issues such as a malfunctioning carburetor or fuel pump, or blockages in fuel lines and exhaust pipes, can prevent the engine from starting. In such cases, timely replacement of fluids is required. 3. Spark plug not firing: This could be due to damaged spark plugs or short circuits in high-voltage wires, causing the spark plugs to fail. Inspect the wiring and replace the spark plugs as needed. 4. Internal engine failure: If the engine has internal failures, such as damaged cylinders or poor valve sealing, it may prevent the engine from starting. It is recommended to take the car to a professional repair shop for expert servicing in such situations.
