To say that choosing a family car is actually a very distressing thing, because there are now too many brands to choose from at the same price, there are joint venture cars, and there are domestic cars. The establishment time of independent brand cars is relatively short, so it is still technically unmatched with foreign brands. But I have to admit that the development speed of domestic cars in recent years is indeed very rapid, especially in the field of SUVs, which has occupied most of the market, which is really exciting. For example, Haval's H6 and Trumpchi's GS4 are very good models, with monthly sales of about 20,000 units, and even joint venture cars are envied. However, in such a fierce market environment, the joint venture car companies have also launched cost-effective models, such as today's protagonist Wuling Hongguang S3, and sure enough, it has come! Known as the "fuel saving king", it sold 15,000 units in the first month of listing, and only 50,000 was more luxurious than the H6!

First look at the front face, the family-style design style makes the Wuling Hongguang S3 have a very high degree of recognition. In particular, the use of I-shaped air intake net, with the red eye-catching Wuling car logo, perhaps the visual effects and Wuling Hongguang some face collision, but from the details of the design can still be distinguished. The shape of the lamp group is angular, and the whole series is equipped with halogen light source, which is in line with product positioning. The daytime lights are currently only available on the Luxury Edition, with a vertical L-shaped structure, while the fog lights extend to the Comfort Edition.
In terms of interior, it can be seen through the interior pictures of the real car that the interior of the Wuling Hongguang S3 also adopts a two-color design, and the atmosphere in the overall car is more youthful and fashionable, and the LCD dashboard and the floating central control screen add a bit of technology. In terms of configuration, it provides practical configurations such as rear parking radar, reversing image, 8-inch touch LCD screen, Bluetooth/car phone, original interconnection/mapping, front/rear power windows, electric exterior mirror function, manual air conditioning, rear independent space, rear seat air outlet and so on.
Coming to the side of the body, the Wuling Hongguang S3 has a body length, width and height of 4655/1735/1790mm, and a wheelbase length of 2800mm. The waistline runs through the front fender through the door handle to the taillights, which can play a role in expanding the visual transverse length. The tail D-pillar is decorated with black panels, coupled with the coverage of the glass windows, forming a suspended effect. Even in the entry-level version, the rims are made of aluminium alloy, and the tires are 205/65 R16, which ensures grip while not costing a high replacement.
The side shape has its own characteristics, full and rounded, while the waistline part is more tough to highlight the inherent sense of power of the SUV model, while the D-pillar creates a suspended roof effect through black glass and the tailgate connection. In addition, the rear shape is relatively restrained, through the black lower encirclement and the curve on the tailgate to highlight the sense of layering, it has to be mentioned that its boxy shape is conducive to the maximum use of space can also highlight the sense of power of the SUV.
Equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum horsepower of 99 hp, a maximum torque of 140 Nm, and a 6-speed manual transmission in terms of transmission, although such a power parameter is not strong, it can fully meet the demand for power during daily household commuting.
