Great Wall MotorsofTanksSerial models are based onTanksThe platform was developed, and this platform has evolved and developed over the years in productionPickups, hardcoresuvWith the accumulation of various models such as H5 and H9, the latest longitudinal non-load-bearing platform and modular design have been formed. The platform was not designed with a short axis in mindSmall off-road vehicles, so it is not supported in the design of the modelTank 100Such a small model.
In addition,Short-axle off-road vehicleIt's not cheap. Historically,SuzukiofJimnyIt was given with 14-150,000 yuanOff-roadEnthusiasts left an impression that led them to think that the size of the downsizingTanksThe 300 will have a similar low**. But in reality, this idea is divorced from reality. Even if there is a short-shaft versionTanks300, the manufacturing cost will only be higher, not lower. Because the parts have not decreased, but the size has become smaller, and the cost has not decreased accordingly. On the contrary, due to the small demand for parts for short-wheelbase models, the number of parts will increase, such as shorter driveshafts than standard wheelbase models, specially designed side panels, etc. Therefore, the manufacture of short wheelbasesDirt bikesIt is not economical.
Moreover, even if it will be a short-shaft versionDirt bikesThe pricing remains the same as the standard wheelbase model, and sales won't be very good. This can be done from thebj40As can be seen in the case of the tribute version, this model has a short wheelbaseDirt bikestype, but the sales are not good, there are almost no existing cars in the 4S store, and reservations must be made in advance. Therefore,TanksOfficially, though, noticedTank 100This hot word, and there are a large number of fans p picture, but the internal feasibility study report must have come to a conclusion, that is, it is not commercially cost-effective and profitable.
From a technical point of view,Great Wall MotorsThe platform design is also not suitable for the production of short wheelbasesDirt bikes。However, this potential market is not worthless. Internationally,Dirt bikesThe market segment is very deep and able to meet the needs of various users, especially those who are looking for tool attributes. relative to the standard wheelbaseDirt bikes, generally known as 4-door or 5-door models (including tailgates) with a short wheelbaseDirt bikesIt is a 2-door or 3-door model (including the tailgate). Even with a standard wheelbaseDirt bikesThere are also 2-door models, and the rear space is reserved for a variety of cargo spaces, thanPickupsThe model is more flexible and versatile. Therefore, even without short wheelbase models, the standard wheelbaseTanksThe 300 can also be launched in a 2-door model, which is more in line with actual needs. Hopefully, this wish will come true, so let's wait and see.

On the other hand,Short-axle off-road vehicleIt's not cheap. Historically,SuzukiofJimnyWith a ** sales of 14-150,000 yuan, it leaves consumers with a bargainDirt bikesimpressions. Therefore, many people thinkTanksThe brand launched a downsizedTanksModels will have similar low**. However, this is not the case. Even with a short wheelbaseTanksmodels, the cost of manufacturing will not be reduced, because the number of parts has not decreased, but the size has become smaller. In addition, due to the small demand for parts for short-wheelbase models, the number of parts will increase. Therefore, a short wheelbase was madeDirt bikesIt's not economical.
In addition, even the wheelbase will be shortDirt bikesThe pricing remains the same as the standard wheelbase model, and sales may not meet expectations. For example,bj40The Tribute Edition is a short wheelbaseDirt bikestype, but the sales are not good, there are almost no existing cars in the 4S store, and reservations are required in advance. So, thoughThe Great WallOfficials noticedTank 100The hot discussion and received a large number of fans of the P picture, but the internal feasibility study report definitely came to a conclusion that the introduction of a short wheelbaseTanksModels are not commercially cost-effective and profitable.
From a technical point of view,Great Wall MotorsThe platform design is not suitable for the production of short wheelbasesDirt bikes。However, this potential market still has some value. Internationally,Dirt bikesThe market is deeply segmented and able to meet the needs of a variety of users, especially those who value the attributes of the tool. Standard wheelbaseDirt bikesGenerally referred to as 4-door or 5-door models, and short wheelbaseDirt bikesIt is a 2-door or 3-door model.
