The advantages of pure electric models in urban transportation have been widely recognized, and they have better economy in stop-and-go congested road conditions. If the use is simple, just for daily transportation, then space is secondary, and price is king, which can be seen from the sales of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV, which has topped the global new energy single model sales champion seven times. However, this popular car has not been updated for a long time, and sales have dropped significantly last year, with 237,863 units sold, which is not a fraction of the 404,823 units sold in 2022.
However, in the latest edition of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology declaration catalog, we finally saw the declaration diagram of the new Wuling Hongguang MINIEV, and then the official picture was officially released. The appearance of the new car has changed greatly, much like a combination of cash and Wuling Bingo, the big light group is rounded, and the built-in LED daytime running lights are smart and lovely. The center of the front is a classic silver Wuling LOGO, and there is a charging port below. The license plate frame is equipped with a ventilation and cooling port, and the roof can choose the same color as the body in addition to the color contrast and black design.
The positioning of the new Wuling Hongguang MINIEV is still a pure electric mini-car, and the overall shape is still K-Car, but it is not so square as the cash model. The body size has been upgraded to 3256/1510/1578mm in length, width and height, and the wheelbase is 2190mm. Thanks to this, the space inside the car has increased compared to the current model.
The rear part of the car is equipped with rounded taillights that echo the front, looking like a diamond shape, but without stiff edges and corners, and the visual effect is harmonious. The new car uses steel rims, providing different styles of plastic rims cover, which mainly plays a decorative role, after all, the traditional steel rims look too old and shabby.
In terms of power, it is consistent with the high-power version of the current model, equipped with a rear single motor, the maximum power is 30kW, and the maximum speed is 100km/h. It is currently known that it will be equipped with lithium iron phosphate batteries, but the specific capacity is not clear. With reference to the current model and Wuling Bingo, the battery pack with a capacity of 17.3kWh will most likely continue to be used. It is worth noting that due to the increase in the size of the new Wuling Hongguang MINIEV, the listing price is expected to rise slightly in the future.
