The car has previously been declared by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and according to the official photos revealed, it will be consistent with the declared model. In terms of appearance, the new car as a whole is quite different from Capgemini, which adopts a front grille that is more similar to the stars, and the V-shaped design echoes the brand LOGO, which looks quite layered and adds a bit of youthful atmosphere. In addition, the new car is optionally equipped with a tungsten-light chrome-plated front grille.

In terms of sides, the overall shape of the traditional MPV is presented, but due to cost reasons, the car does not use the design of the sliding door, which is also understandable. In terms of body size, the new car is 4785/1820/1760mm in length, width and height, and the wheelbase is 2760mm, which is smaller than Capgemini in size. It is reported that the new car will adopt a seven-seat layout of 2+2+3, equipped with a single sunroof and 360 panoramic image function.

Wuling Capgemini

Comprehensive new car in all aspects, it can be said that it is difficult to find opponents, first of all, from the price, the new car is positioned lower than Capgemini, to a certain extent, it can be understood as the seven-seat version of the star, referring to the starting price of Capgemini 85,800 yuan and the starting price of the star 69,800 yuan, the starting price of the car is very likely to be between 75,800 and 79,800 yuan. Looking at the same class of models, only SAIC Maxus G50 and Baojun RM-5 can compete slightly, but the starting price of the former is close to 90,000, while the latter is still stuck in the 2019 model. In this way, Wuling has undoubtedly become a price butcher again, leaving no way back for the opponent at all.

The editor said: In general, although the new car will be weakened compared with Capgemini in terms of product strength, its practical design is in line with the needs of many buyers who just need it. And as I said above, there is no opponent at all in the same level, and the Baojun RM-5 can compete slightly with its own Capgemini, maybe this is really only magic can defeat magic. In any case, the arrival of the new car is believed to further lower the threshold of the same level, looking back at the previous silver label series Capgemini and Xingchen two models, the car will largely become a blockbuster model again. In other words, how would you choose between you?
