The engine for this all-terrain vehicle came from the older model Tank 500. The new version should hit the home market in a few days.
The fact that the Tank brand is preparing to launch a frame SUV with index 330 on the market became known at the beginning of the year thanks to a leak from the Chinese Ministry of Industry. This is not a separate model, but a new top-end version of the Tank 300 all-terrain vehicle. So now the Tank 330 has been officially announced: brand photos have been published, in addition, the date of the full premiere has been announced — March 16.

The main difference between an SUV with a new index is the engine. If the standard “three hundredth” is equipped with a 2.0 petrol turbo-four with a power of 220 hp. (380 Nm), then the Tank 330 received a petrol biturbo V6 3.0 from the older model Tank 500. This engine has a 48-volt starter-generator, output is 360 hp. and 500 Nm (in Chinese specification). Most likely, like the “500th”, the Tank 330 will be equipped with a nine-speed automatic transmission, while the standard Tank 300 is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Of course, the top version has all-wheel drive, and to the AWD modes (where the clutch closes automatically if necessary) and 4L (reduction gear) a 2H mono-drive mode and a 4H forced clutch locking mode have been added.
Tank 330 has other features. In particular, the SUV received reinforced bumpers, embossed wheel arch extensions and “toothy” tires. In addition, there is an impressive air intake on the hood. The approach angle of the top version is 36 degrees, the departure angle is 37 degrees (for the Tank 300 it is 33 and 34 degrees, respectively).
The interior of the new modification has not yet been shown. Probably, inside such a Tank repeated the original SUV, except that they could replace the finishing materials.

Chinese specialized media are tipping the Tank 330 to have a starting price tag of 300,000 — 350,000 yuan, which is equivalent to approximately 3.8 million — 4.4 million rubles at the current exchange rate. Tank 300 in the home market now costs from 199,800 yuan (2.5 million rubles). It is possible that later the top version will reach Russia.
