GWM Brings Off-Road Adventure Indoors at Auto Shanghai
In a bold and innovative move, GWM has created an indoor off-road experience at Auto Shanghai, centered around the GWM TANK 300. The custom-built dynamic installation replicates a variety of challenging terrains, featuring rolling hills, winding turns, and rugged surfaces, allowing visitors to fully immerse themselves in the thrill of off-road driving—without ever leaving the exhibition hall.
The president of GWM international Parker Shi led the first demonstration, showcasing the GWM TANK 300’s outstanding off-road capabilities to an enthusiastic crowd. Excitement quickly spread as numerous international guests eagerly joined the experience, with the energy at the venue reaching new heights. Captured through in-vehicle GoPro footage, the amazement of overseas visitors was clear, as they marveled at the unique indoor setup: “How did they manage to bring an off-road test drive indoors?” they exclaimed. After their rides, many couldn’t contain their excitement, sharing their impressions at the interactive display area: “GWM Off-Road Life—really excited!”
This groundbreaking indoor off-road experience not only highlights the exceptional performance of GWM vehicles but also marks a creative new step in promoting off-road culture on a global stage.
Mastering the Off-Road Terrain: A Stellar Showcase of Hi4 Hybrid AWD Technology
The indoor off-road course was just the beginning. The real highlight for GWM’s Hi4 hybrid all-wheel-drive platform unfolded at the outdoor off-road test site in Chuansha, Shanghai. Designed to fully capture the spirit of adventure, the course features a range of challenging sections, including hill climbs, extreme zones, recovery areas, and chassis refinement zones, allowing media and enthusiasts to experience the full thrill of off-road driving.
During the "Big Camelback" hill climb test, the GWM TANK 300 demonstrated its robust four-wheel-drive capabilities. Its powerful torque output enabled it to conquer steep slopes with ease, while its responsive AWD system quickly adapted to muddy terrain, distributing power precisely to ensure smooth recovery.
The extreme zone included side-slope and water-fording challenges, meticulously replicating real-world off-road conditions. GWM’s star models—the GWM TANK 400, GWM TANK 300, and POER —took on these obstacles one after another. The latest Hi4 system added even greater performance to the experience. For instance, the GWM TANK 500, equipped with the Hi4-Z platform, integrates power-splitting technology inspired by the Dujiangyan hydraulic system, combining multiple performance advantages. During test drives, the GWM TANK 500 offered a seamless blend of powerful off-road prowess and refined ride comfort, ensuring an effortless driving experience across rugged terrain and urban roads alike.
With the launch of its hybrid intelligent AWD family—including the Hi4, Hi4 Performance, Hi4-Z, Hi4-T, and Hi4-G—GWM, under its " Hybrid ICE Integration Strategy," has built a diversified product matrix. These models meet the high-end demands of users across business, urban, travel, and off-road scenarios, offering more possibilities for exceptional driving and riding experiences.
Exploring the Open Road: A Full Display of GWM’s Versatile Appeal
After experiencing the excitement of off-road driving, visitors turned to GWM’s on-road test drive course, where the brand’s advanced intelligent driving assistance systems truly impressed. The GWM HAVAL NEW SUV, equipped with GWM’s intelligent driving assist suite, utilizes precise sensors and smart algorithms to deliver features such as adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assistance. The system enables automatic following with safe distance maintenance and provides emergency braking in hazardous situations, significantly enhancing driver safety and reducing driving stress.
GWM’s diverse lineup also showcased exceptional powertrain performance. Offering a range of gasoline engines from 1.5T to 3.0T, GWM provides consumers with a broad spectrum of power options. During the flat-road test drives, models such as the HAVAL H9, WEY 07, and GWM POER SAHAR demonstrated strong acceleration capabilities, handling starts and overtaking maneuvers with ease, and highlighting their abundant power reserves.
ORA, GWM’s electric vehicle brand, attracted widespread attention with its unique appeal. The ORA 03, with its compact and charming design, maneuvered effortlessly through narrow urban streets and crowded parking lots. Meanwhile, the ORA 07, though compact in overall size, offers a smartly designed interior space that delivers a comfortable and convenient commuting experience for city drivers.
On the MPV front, models like the WEY 80 excelled in delivering superior cabin comfort. Featuring spacious interiors, adjustable seating, and ample legroom and headroom, these MPVs offer premium comfort for both business travel and family outings.
As the on-road test drives concluded, GWM once again won over the audience with its strong product portfolio, cutting-edge intelligent technology, and hardcore off-road capabilities, earning widespread praise and recognition.
GWM’s all-scenario test-drive event, spanning from the pioneering indoor off-road experience to rigorous outdoor performance challenges and intelligent on-road driving, offered a comprehensive showcase of the brand’s exceptional capabilities. Influencers, media representatives, and dealers alike were given an in-depth opportunity to experience GWM’s diverse driving appeal firsthand.
Every driving experience served not only as a testament to GWM’s technical strength but also as a thoughtful response to evolving user expectations. Looking ahead, GWM is poised to unlock even more innovative experiences and explore new possibilities, continuing to deliver premium mobility solutions for global users through the fusion of warm, human-centered technology and a spirit deeply rooted in off-road adventure.
