Check Tank 300 language, maps, phone functions, software region, cameras, sensors and driver-assistance operation before overseas purchase.
Identify the installed hardware and software
Record the build date, trim, screen layout, software and map versions, language menu, audio system, USB ports, charging pads, camera views, keys and visible sensor locations. Photograph the settings and every relevant vehicle-information screen. Compare this evidence with an official source for the correct market, remembering that a brochure lists possible equipment rather than confirming a VIN. A replacement screen, imported head unit or retrofitted camera needs part and installation evidence. If the system was reset for sale, repeat pairing, settings retention and cold-start checks after the vehicle has slept.
Test phone, language, maps and regional services
Pair an ordinary phone, place a call, stream audio, reconnect after restart and test cable or wireless integration only where the exact system supports it. Confirm that the buyer can operate safety-critical menus in an available language. Native navigation may lack destination maps; connected apps, voice services, traffic, remote control or over-the-air updates may require a domestic account or network. Treat those services as unavailable until demonstrated in the destination context. A locally fitted phone solution may be practical, but it should not obstruct controls or be represented as factory connectivity.
Verify cameras, sensors and driver assistance
Complete a full diagnostic scan before clearing faults. Test parking sensors, cameras, tyre-pressure display and fitted driver-assistance functions on a safe route under suitable conditions. Windscreen replacement, collision repair, bumper changes, wheel alignment or sensor removal can create a calibration need without obvious exterior damage. Official GWM material shows that safety and technology equipment is model dependent, so a feature on another market's specification sheet is not proof that it belongs on this vehicle. Record unavailable tests and never ask an inspector to provoke an unsafe intervention.
Plan support after arrival
Ask a destination workshop whether it can scan the relevant modules, perform camera or radar calibration, program keys and source replacement screens or sensors. Confirm whether warranty, connected-service accounts and software campaigns transfer internationally; assume they do not until written evidence says otherwise. Keep the original configuration and scan record before any language conversion or aftermarket head-unit work. If a feature is essential, make its verified operation an acceptance condition. If it is merely convenient, assign value only to the functions proven to work without unsupported regional services.
Evidence to collect
- Build and software version record
- Language and phone pairing test
- Map and connected-service limits
- Full module diagnostic scan
- Camera and ADAS function evidence
- Destination calibration support
Apply the guide to a real candidate
Create a feature acceptance table
List every promised feature and classify it as present and tested, present but region-dependent, absent, or not tested. Add the evidence and whether the feature is essential. This prevents a long option list from hiding the failure of one critical item such as an English-language safety menu, replacement-key support or camera calibration.
Preserve the pre-export electronic baseline
Save a complete scan, software screen photographs, key count and working-feature video before any reset, language work or battery disconnection. Repeat the scan after preparation. The before-and-after record helps separate an existing candidate fault from a change introduced during repair, inland handling or accessory removal.
Final approval control
The final file should separate safety functions, convenience features and connected services. Safety-related hardware needs diagnostic and calibration evidence where applicable; convenience functions need a realistic destination workaround; account- or server-dependent services should carry no value unless overseas use is confirmed. Save the exact software state and unresolved limitations in the contract record. A feature should not be described as working merely because its menu icon appears or because another market advertises it.
Primary references
Specifications and equipment can vary by market, model year, trim, VIN and production batch. Verify the exact vehicle and current destination rules before purchase.

Will every Tank 300 support the same phone features?
No. Hardware, software, market and model year can change pairing and integration.
Can ADAS be approved because no warning light is on?
No. Scan results, physical condition, calibration status and a safe functional test provide stronger evidence.
Will China-market connected services work overseas?
Do not assume so. Confirm account, network, server, map and language support for the destination.
