The ideal is very full, but the reality is very bone. When we saw the sales of Wuling Capgemini in the first three months of this year, the first feeling was that there was a danger of being abandoned by the market. As we all know, with Wuling Hongguang's pioneering territory in the market, SAIC-GM-Wuling, the market morale is getting weaker and weaker. Although it is still the best in the field of MPV, the sales of "Qiuming Mountain God Car" Wuling Hongguang have not been as brilliant as in the past, and the sales volume of a single month has exceeded 30,000 units, which has really become a dream for Wuling Hongguang.
Baojun 510, Baojun 730 and Baojun 360, which were once focused on building, have basically come to the brink of being abandoned by the market. Today, the biggest contributor to SAIC-GM-Wuling is the Hongguang MINI EV, which is called "Old Man Le" by many people. SAIC-GM-Wuling, which opens up the situation in the automotive market by micro-surfaces and takes root, still has a fondness for MPV models, and after Baojun 730 and Baojun 360, its Wuling brand has also launched Wuling Capgemini.
First of all, Wuling Hongguang, the cumulative sales volume from January to March 2022 was 57636 units, down 25.3% year-on-year. Among them, Wuling Hongguang's sales in March were 13,726 units, down 46.1% year-on-year. This is the current market situation of Wuling Hongguang, compared to the brilliant period, Wuling Hongguang can really be described with a "miserable" word is not exaggerated, you know, the MPV market in Wuling Hongguang has no competitors!
Next, let's talk about Wuling Capgemini. As a soaring model of SAIC-GM-Wuling's MPV, Wuling Capgemini mainly seized the 100,000-level market segment after participating in the market competition, in the past 2021, Wuling Capgemini's annual cumulative sales of 63,316 units, exceeding the sales of Trumpchi M6, Fengxing Lingzhi and other models, although there was no hot sales momentum like Baojun 730 that year, but its market performance was not bad.
As a compact MPV model priced at 85,800-134,800 yuan, Wuling Capgemini has a length of 4875mm, as well as a wheelbase of 2800mm, equipped with a 1.5T + 6MT/CVT power combination, it should be noted that the 1.5T engine has a high and low power, the low-power engine can reach up to 147 horsepower and 250Nm torque; the high-power engine can reach up to 177 horsepower and 290Nm torque.
In terms of configuration, Wuling Capgemini distinguishes according to different prices, and although it is sincere on the whole, it always gives people a feeling of lack. The high-end model still highlights the sincerity it should have, equipped with front and rear parking radar, 360-degree panoramic imagery, full-speed adaptive cruise, open panoramic sunroof, 10.25-inch central control screen and on-board air purifier, etc. To tell the truth, this configuration is practical enough.
As a means of transportation in daily life, Wuling Capgemini is enough to meet the needs of ordinary families, although the car is somewhat unsatisfactory in terms of NVH, the gearbox is frustrated, the brake noise is abnormal, and the car machine system is not too easy to use. As long as you don't pursue "tall", there is certainly no big problem to meet the needs of ordinary family cars, after all, the price of Wuling Capgemini is placed here.
I thought that Wuling Capgemini was the king, but it turned out to be bronze. According to the sales volume released by the Association, the cumulative sales volume of Wuling Capgemini from January to March 2022 was only 8,031 units, a year-on-year decline of 60.2%. Among them, Wuling Capgemini sold 1750 units in March, a year-on-year decline of 74.7%. In terms of sales, the appearance of Wuling Capgemini "waist cut" is already an indisputable fact, according to such a momentum of development, the express brother only wants to say: Wuling Capgemini, when the market abandons you, it is estimated that even the greeting will not be played.
