The Tank 500 SUV in Russia received a new Hi-Charge trim level with a plug-in hybrid powertrain (PHEV) and will now be offered in a total of five versions. This was announced by the Russian representative office of Great Wall Motor.

The Tank 500 in the Hi-Charge hybrid version is equipped with retractable thresholds with an electric drive, roof rails, adaptive LED optics, a massive radiator grille and cast 19-inch wheels with an original design, and the spare wheel is located on the trunk door. The interior of the SUV is trimmed with Nappa leather. There are front and rear seats with massage and ventilation functions, a second-row central armrest with touchscreen control and wireless charging, electric curtains on the rear row of seats, as well as double glazing with noise insulation.
