General Motors celebrated the launch of the new Wuling Hong Guan electric mini car for the Chinese market before this summer. The small electric vehicle, which is intended to serve as a low-cost, emissions-free mode of transportation for city dwellers, has had an incredibly successful initial launch period, with GM’s Chinese arm already receiving more than 50,000 orders for the fairly small. develops around.
According to the Chinese engine GasGoo.com, the Wuling Hong Guan EV had already attracted 15,000 orders just 20 days after GM opened the order books in July and has attracted more than 35,000 orders to date.
Prices for Wuling Hong Guan EV start at just 28,800 yuan, which is $4,162, and reach a maximum of 38,800 yuan, or $5,607. The sedan, with capacity for 4 people, produces a maximum of thirteen kW (17.4 horsepower) and 85 Nm (62.7 pound-ft) of torque thanks to its exclusive electric motor. It has an estimated diversity of 170 km and a more sensitive speed of one hundred km/h.
Although the Wuling Hong Guan EV is designed to be as reasonable as possible to build and buy, it comes with some protection features such as anti-lock brakes, electronic braking force distribution, a tire tension tracking formula and rear parking sensors.
GM’s Chinese joint venture had announced in the past that it would create about a hundred “experienced retail outlets” in China to advertise the Wuling Hong Guan EV. These experienced outlets will basically be located in the city centres and will seek to attract curious young buyers with their elegant external and internal designs.
The Wuling Hong Guang EV has lately only sold in China, GM’s Chinese joint venture hopes to sell the vehicle abroad one day too, has not specified which markets it will target first. An electric vehicle from a small town like this probably wouldn’t take off in the U.S. Or Canada, but it can be an exciting option elsewhere in Asia or Europe.
