In December last year, Wuling announced the launch of its first super A-class family sedan Wuling Starlight, with a starting price of 88,800 yuan directly overturning the table in the 100,000-level new energy family car market. After less than four months, Wuling Starlight once again brought a new model. Compared with the previous model, the Wuling Starlight co-creation version of the listing directly lowered the price of the entry model to 79,800 yuan!

The 100,000-level new energy family car market can no longer be described as a soldier, and various brands have already been killed, and everyone has rolled up the size, performance, and price.
