Mal, the article and various commentators grapple with the speed and other sophisticated features of the combat car. To win a public tender is not a race, which you win by help of a speedy car. A tender you win by meeting the requirements, described in the tender documents.
The inadequate penetration capability of a 37mm anti-tank gun was the inspiration for its derisive nickname "door-knocker". The German guns of the same caliber were updated by special grenades (-> shaped charge, fin-stabilized shell) to improve the anti-tank performance.  image source: wikipedia
