In July 2020, GWM introduced three platforms with the brand name "L.E.M.O.N.", "Tank", and "Coffee Intelligence". Among them, the Tank platform is a longitudinal platform mainly for hard-core off-road vehicles that supports internal combustion engine (ICE), hybrid electric (HEV), and plug-in hybrid (PHEV). According to GWM, the Tank platform would be used by B-class (equivalent to D-segment) to D+-class (above F-segment) SUV and pickup truck market segments.[2] The first SUV that uses the Tank platform is the Wey Tank 300, introduced in July 2020 at the Chengdu Auto Show.[3][4]
In March 2021, GWM that it would market off-road vehicles from the Tank series under the independent Tank brand. Wey would be positioned as an urban SUV brand, while the Tank series will focus on off-road oriented SUVs. The 300 became the first model of the brand.[5]
As part of Auto Shanghai in 2021, two more off-road vehicles were presented with the Tank 700 and Tank 800.[6][7] The Tank 400 and Tank 500 were further previewed in August 2021.[8][9]
