China's Car Brands: Explained

China's car market runs on a handful of giant groups, each fielding a stack of brands. Here is who owns what - the parent companies, the sub-brands, the Huawei alliance, and why the chart keeps changing.

About

Tank is Great Wall Motors’ off-road SUV brand, spun off from GWM’s Wey lineup into a standalone brand in March 2021. It is headquartered alongside GWM in Baoding, Hebei, and sits within a group structure where GWM organizes its lineup into model-led brands - Haval, Wey, Ora, and Tank - rather than a single badge.

The brand builds body-on-frame SUVs rather than unibody crossovers, targeting buyers who want genuine off-road capability. Its range spans the compact Tank 300 up through the larger Tank 500 and Tank 700, with powertrain options that include turbocharged petrol, diesel, and plug-in hybrid systems pairing a combustion engine with electric motors for both efficiency and off-road torque.

Tank vehicles are sold primarily in China, with export markets across the Middle East, Latin America, Southeast Asia, and other regions where GWM has a dealer network.
