It was, from the standpoint of German military doctrine of Blitzkrieg, where mobility was key. There were, however, superior tanks at the time, which were more than a match for the Panzers. The problem was that Germany bet on other nations loathing the idea of another war and they were right, as tanks in general were developed using the doctrines of WWI tactics, and even the best ones weren't manufacturered in sufficient quantity.
