What the people need, Wuling will build. On April 28, SAIC-GM-Wuling's third silver-label model, Wuling Jiachen, officially opened pre-sale. The new car has a total of five models of 1.5L and 1.5T, with a pre-price range of 69,800-105,800 yuan, and was officially released in the first half of this year.
As a compact MPV, Wuling Jiachen continues the design concept of the Wuling Silver Label family, and the front face design style is similar to the previously listed Wuling Xingchen, with a double-layer V-shaped front face, which is more layered. From the side, the waistline extends from the front fender to the rear, and with the common side door design of family MPV models, it looks very slender. In terms of size, the car has a length, width and height of 4785/1820/1760 mm, and a wheelbase of 2760 mm.
In addition, in terms of spatial layout, the car's middle seats can be moved forward and backward by 120 mm, the back of the seat can be adjusted to 150 degrees, and the third row of seats can be reclined or folded forward for four or six minutes, achieving a maximum volume of 1177 liters in the trunk. At the same time, users can freely choose the number of seats according to the 2+2+N seat change mode (4, 5, 6, 7 seat layout), with 23 humanized storage spaces, to meet the travel needs of multi-family families.
Although Wuling Jiachen takes the cost-effective route, its configuration is not ambiguous at all. In particular, the ling os lingxi system can be described as one of the core highlights of Wuling Jiachen. In particular, the voice interaction function of this system has a good speech recognition rate, and you can also customize the wake word, or use the buttons on the steering wheel to wake up; for the sound is large/small, the screen is bright/dark, and the answer/hang up the phone and other common commands, the system also supports wake-free direct command, the convenience is good.
In addition, if the user downloads the Ling Club App, they can see the car condition information including car locks, air conditioners, windows, and sunroofs on their mobile phones at a glance. If the user goes home and remembers that the car window is not closed, there is no need to run back deliberately, just operate on the mobile phone.
In terms of safety, as a 7-seater family car, of course, it cannot be ambiguous. Wuling Jiachen adopts high-strength steel cage body structure design, the vehicle high-strength steel materials account for more than 64.2%, reaching the international leading level, the body through the top anti-rust process, the whole vehicle 5 doors galvanized treatment. Wuling Jiachen is equipped with four surround airbags for the main/co-driver, ESP body electronic stability system, and Nexteer electronic power steering system.
In terms of power, the new car provides a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine and a 1.5T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 108 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. In terms of drivetrain, the 1.5T engine is matched with a 6-speed manual or CVT continuously variable transmission, while the 1.5L model is all 6-speed manual.
On the whole, the overall performance of Wuling Jiachen is still very good, whether it is appearance, interior, configuration or power, it meets its own positioning - 7-seat family car, and also added many intimate designs, such as the "theater-style" ladder drop seat layout. Nowadays, with the increase in oil prices and the promotion of national fertility policies, 5-seater cars can no longer meet the daily use needs of families, and more consumers have begun to focus on MPV, and now the price of MPV on the market is higher. What is the final pricing of Wuling Jiachen? Can the threshold of MPV be lowered with a "people-friendly" price? We look forward to its post-market performance.
