Recently, we learned from relevant channels that SAIC-GM-Wuling's pure electric small car Wuling Binguo (picture | configuration | inquiry) is about to usher in a new upgrade, and the real picture and some parameters of this new version of Binguo have also been exposed, and the configuration has been newly upgraded, but in terms of mileage, it is not up but down, so is the new car worth looking forward to? Let's find out first. The new version of Wuling Binguo has been exposed, the configuration has been upgraded, the battery life has not risen but decreased, and the price may be lowered
As a new upgraded version of Wuling Binguo, the new car retains the original design style in terms of exterior design layout, after all, the new car has not been on the market for a long time, so if you are in such a hurry to upgrade the appearance, it is also unrealistic, here we will take a look at it. The overall appearance of the new car is more rounded, especially the oval headlight clusters on both sides of the front face, which are matched with the taillights at the rear of the car, which looks more cute and cute. The charging port of the new car is placed on the right side, which is different from the previous new energy vehicles; In addition, the new car adopts two-tone paint, especially the blackened roof is also in line with the current trend, small, cute and lightweight.
After Hongguang MINIEV became popular, the mini car and small car markets were on fire. However, it seems that the small car market can become hot and inevitable results. Because with the liberalization of the multi-tire policy, some families have begun to enter the use of a second or even multiple cars in the family. In addition, the number of cars is getting larger and larger, and the roads are becoming more and more congested, so in order to save costs as much as possible for short-distance travel, it is particularly important to have a small electric vehicle to travel. After tasting the "sweetness" of Hongguang MINIEV, Wuling continued to develop a small family short-distance travel car within 100,000 yuan - Wuling Binguo (picture | configuration | inquiry). Wuling Binguo is a five-door and four-seater small pure electric vehicle, positioned slightly higher than its own brother model Wuling Hongguang MINIEV, mainly aimed at the car market within 100,000 yuan. So what will be the strength of Wuling Binguo, let's find out together.
The appearance is retro and pleasing to women, and the space is large enough to pick up the baby?
The appearance of Wuling Binguo is significantly different from Hongguang MINIEV or other electric models in the family, and it adopts a new family design language. The vehicle is designed with rounded lines that can be seen everywhere, and the closed front face with the oval headlight group looks retro and a little fashionable, and female users will probably like it very much. At the same time, the sides of the body are also straight, and the chrome trim strip below adds a touch of sophistication. In addition, it may be due to the three-electric layout, the overall front of the car is longer, and the charging port of the new car is arranged directly on the front fender. The rear is also designed with an oval light cluster, with chrome strip decoration to form an obvious echo with the front face. In addition, Wuling Binguo also comes with 4 exterior colors, including milk coffee white, dazzling night black, aurora green, and iceberry powder, and the colors are more feminine.
At the same time, the interior also adopts a black, white and brown color contrast design, and a large area of leather wrapping is used above the center console, door panels and seat positions, with chrome decoration and piano paint trim in many places such as air conditioning vents and door handles, creating a sense of sophistication in the car than other electric models within the family's 100,000 yuan. And the car is also equipped with a 10.25-inch suspended dual screen, double-spoke multi-function steering wheel, knob-type shift mechanism, don't look at the small pure electric vehicle within 100,000, although the sparrow is small, the sense of science and technology that Wuling Binguo should have will give you.
In terms of size, the Wuling Binguo is on par with the previous generation Volkswagen Polo, and the wheelbase is 90mm longer than the latter, making it a standard small car. In terms of price, the price of Wuling Binguo is not much higher than that of Changan Glutinous Corn, Geometric Panda MINI and other models, and it is much cheaper than the two small cars under Ora, and with its cute and round appearance, it is not surprising that it sells well.
However, Wuling Binguo has been criticized by many people that there is no ESP in the whole system, and there is no uphill assist, even if there are no low-profile models, there are no high-end models, you know, Wuling Binguo's high-end models, the price has caught up with the BYD Seagull, and the safety configuration of the BYD Seagull is much more complete than it, with more front and rear side air curtains, ESP body stability system and other configurations.
Although most of the A00 class pure electric models, such as Changan e-star, Wuling Hongguang MINI EV, QQ ice cream, Changan lumin and other models are not equipped with ESP. However, the price of Wuling Binguo can be a little higher than them, and the price of high-end models has reached more than 80,000, can you accept a model that costs more than 80,000 without ESP? And Chery's little ant, the top configuration of Leap T03, is equipped with ESP.
And ESP this configuration, many people say that it is useless, it is not used in urban areas, but it is still meaningful when it is wet and slippery in rain and snow, or when it is emergency avoidance, this configuration may not be used in a lifetime, but it may save lives if it is used once.
Perhaps because I heard the voices of many people, Wuling Binguo's new model declaration information came out, with the addition of ESP, the battery pack capacity was reduced from 31.9kWh to 28.1kWh, and the corresponding CLTC range was reduced from 333km to 309km. It is expected that the price will be reduced by a few thousand to ten thousand. With the increase in ESP and price reduction, Wuling Binguo's competitiveness will be further enhanced, and it may become the hottest model in the small electric vehicle market.
