Friends who know about the domestic auto market should know that although Wuling did not deliberately promote the attributes of the joint venture, it is an indisputable fact that GM occupies 44% of the shares, saying that it is a joint venture brand is actually not without purpose, or how is its full name "SAIC-GM Wuling"?
SAIC and GM's double endorsement in technology make Wuling car have a high quality in quality, continuing the essence of American car resistance, although some common small problems cannot be avoided for a long time, but the three major pieces are very tough and strong. In addition, Wuling adhering to the concept of "making Chinese affordable cars", from Wuling Hongguang, Wuling Journey to Hongguang Mini..., the car space is large, practical, low price, Wuling car is deeply loved by domestic users, saying that it is "people's brand" is nothing more than wearing a top hat.
However, it is precisely because of the low-end, cheap brand image over the years, so that the influence of Wuling can only be limited to the market below 80,000, so don't look at the sales of Wuling is very high, but the profit of bicycles is very low, for car companies, in order to obtain healthy and long-term development, it is necessary to break through and further enrich their own product matrix, Wuling can not only have Hongguang, even if it is a "god car". Capgemini, mini, star is the attempt made by Wuling, at present, domestic users still eat Wuling this set, of which, Wuling Xingchen in October, November monthly sales were 10332, 15603 vehicles, two months of wild dumping of 25935 vehicles, Wuling has succeeded again.
In essence, Wuling Star is still the main cost performance, after all, this is a 69,800-99,800 compact SUV, benchmarking Haval H6, Boyue, Changan CS75PLUS these mainstream domestic compact SUV, Wuling Star has a clear advantage in price. So the question is, Star is so cheap, what are the commendable points in its performance in product strength?
First of all, from the static appearance, Wuling Xingchen adopts a new family design language, the front face shape looks very modern and technological, the inverted trapezoidal forward grille combined with the pure black dot matrix middle net, it looks avant-garde and radical without losing the mysterious atmosphere. The LED headlights on both sides are connected by chrome strips, supplemented by a new silver logo and a penetrating chrome decorative strip at the bumper, which creates a delicate and delicate feeling, and it is still very recognizable when it is opened. The roof adopts a pure black design, and the entire body including the looming waist line presents a low-front and high-back posture, creating a high-speed forward aura, coupled with multi-spoke aluminum alloy wheels and slender taillights, which further enhances the sporty atmosphere of the whole vehicle.
The interior is well designed, highlighting the large SIZE LCD dashboard and 10.25-inch floating multimedia screen, but also equipped with 4G network, OTA upgrade, online map, satellite navigation, Bluetooth \ WiFi, combined with the wrap-around cockpit, I believe it can bring a good static experience to the driver. After all, the body length, width and height of Wuling Star are 4594mm, 1820mm, 1740mm, the size of the three circumferences is basically similar to boyue, but the wheelbase length reaches 2750mm, comparable to ordinary medium-sized SUVs, which brings an extremely spacious experience to the space.
The experiencer is 1 meter 8 tall, sitting in the back row is not crowded at all, sitting full is more than enough, the second row of seats support proportional recline, thus playing a role in expanding the trunk volume. In addition, the rear drainage cup holder and rear armrest are equipped, and the storage design in the car is also very rich, and it is still more convenient for daily use. In the safety configuration part, Wuling Xingchen is equipped with ESP, tire pressure monitoring, seat belt untied prompt, uphill assist, rear image... in the whole series of Wuling Xingchen, and the configuration of medium and high-end models also has fixed speed cruise, driving mode selection, automatic parking and other configurations to choose from.
Finally, looking at the power design part, Wuling Star is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 147 horsepower, a peak torque of 250 Nm, and a 6-speed manual or simulated 8-speed CVT transmission. Power performance in the mainstream domestic compact SUV is really not good? But to meet the family is enough, and these two sets of powertrains are better in reliability and stability, the secondary roof with the roof of the suspension also supports soft and hard adjustment, home or no problem.
The most important thing to buy a car is to look at the brand power and product power, and then look at the price, Wuling Star's performance in these three aspects is not flawed, Wuling's brand positioning is relatively low-end, but it does not mean that there is no brand value. Wuling Xingchen's product strength can also be remarkable, the key is that the price is very close to the people, so this car has attracted the attention of many people as soon as it was unveiled, and sales have also risen steadily, which can be said to be another "people's god car" in the domestic SUV.
