Another weak point may be the frame: Chinese engineers have relied on a design with removable transverse elements for the convenience of working with the engine and gearbox.

The developers did not skimp on soundproofing the floor, and the Tank 500 also has exemplary welded joints, the body seams are generously smeared with sealant, and the wiring is made to last.
