In the new energy vehicle market in recent years, Wuling Automobile can be said to be brilliant, MINIEV has been listed so far, the cumulative sales have exceeded 1.2 million, and last year, the monthly sales of Bingo continued to launch more than 10,000 to 20,000 units. Later, after knowing that users wanted a longer battery life, more space, and better control of the “Bingo”, Wuling created the Bingo PLUS. The Bingo SUV we test drive today is Wuling once again listening to users’ opinions and upgrading the Bingo PLUS, and the name also makes the positioning of this car more clear. Sure enough, Wuling made whatever the people needed.
The most obvious change is going from four seats to five seats, which is something I can do without, but you’d better have. After all, now are two children, three children, and then occasionally emergency use, five more just need.
The rear seat filling is relatively soft, the height of 165cm sits in the back of the knee, the head space is sufficient, the thigh support is enough, but there is no outlet in the back row, in the hot summer in Guangzhou, it takes some time to cool down.
Back to the front row, the design of the front row continues the simple style of Wuling PLUS, in addition to the seat is leather, the armrest, door version and center console are often touched with a lot of soft packaging. At the same time, continue to use the combination of 8.8 inch LCD instrument +10.1 inch center control screen, the car is built in the Ling OS intelligent system, most of its functions are integrated in the center control screen, the experience is smooth.
Storage space is a big highlight of the Bingo SUV, the whole car has 23 storage space, the design of the electronic cradle saves a lot of space for the saddle, the design of the upper and lower two layers is convenient, whether it is a large piece or a small piece, the cup holder is also very intimate to the charging line reserved for the small mouth.
The trunk is a sunken design, and we can put down strollers, green plants, large dolls, campervans, scooters, bags of snacks, folding chairs, guitars, yoga MATS, tripods at the same time. It is very suitable for the needs of Bao Ma. It does not need to be neatly put, but it needs to be put down.
Appearance is another highlight of Bingo SUV, the new car is expected to provide four appearance colors, cancel the original quantum black color, in the storm gray, aurora green on the basis of the addition of milk coffee white and glass red two colors, our test drive today is milk coffee white, looks more warm and soft.
The design of the Bingo SUV is the same as that of the Bingo PLUS. The closed front face only has a cooling port under it, and the air vents on both sides of the bumper, together with the large Angle of the front windshield and the anti-whorl wing can effectively reduce wind resistance. The overall design is still round and lovely, but the floating roof and the blackened mirrors neutralize the lovely atmosphere, and the male owner will not be out of place.
In terms of battery, the Bingo SUV is equipped with a god chain battery, adding a more entry-level 330km endurance version, plus 401km and 510km, a total of 3 endurance versions. It is said that the power consumption of 100 kilometers is 10.1kW·h, and the cost of 100 kilometers is less than 6 yuan. At the same time, it is also equipped with DC fast charge, slow charge and home power supply with car charge 3 charging modes, DC fast charge from 30%-80% only 30-35 minutes.
In terms of power, Wulingbingo (picture | configuration | inquiry)SUV is equipped with high-efficiency 3-in-1 water-cooled flat line motor, maximum power 75kW, maximum torque 180N·m, 0-50km/h only takes 3.7 seconds. Our test drive this time was mainly in Guangzhou city, after frequent start-stop on low-speed congested roads, but also through high-speed smooth driving, the performance of Bingo SUV can be said to be completely above expectations, four driving modes, three energy recovery degree Settings can be easily adjusted to your favorite driving habits. The power output is smooth, and the medium-low speed acceleration is direct. The chassis has been optimized, high-speed driving to 120km/h can also pull the body, will not drift, the steering is more clear, shuttle in the city there is no pressure. Sound insulation is also excellent, although there is a certain noise at high speed, but there will be no motor whistling, worthy of a praise.
In general, Wuling SUV has a high appearance level, large space, many options for endurance, and power and driving control can meet daily needs. But compared to Wuling Bingo’s excellent performance in the small car market, the four-seat Bingo PLUS performance is slightly inferior. Bingo SUV launched a five-seat version, although rich product choice, but in the face of many strong rivals, pricing is also key.
