Germans always have inherent tank leaders per
Rule 6.8. Note the comma after "all German AFVs" to denote that the 1943 or later restriction only applies to Soviet Union AFVs.

Addressing kind of a sub-question here:
"Units not activated by leaders can move, but they can't move closer to enemy units that could hurt them." (See Rule 1.1 - Moving)
Units that activate without the assistance of leaders (and this includes your tanks) are restricted in that they cannot move closer to enemy units that can
hurt them.
The phrasing here is very important.
If I have an 81mm platoon and you have a T-34 platoon without leaders, you can move as close as you please to my 81mm because I cannot hurt you.
Another example: if I had a tank platoon with AT range of 4, you could activate without tank leader and close to 5 hexes away because I would still be unable to hurt you.
