Compact Four-Door Model Offers Range of 205 Km and Consumption Equivalent to 82 Km/L, Redefining the Concept of Urban Vehicles
The Wuling Hongguang Mini EV, the new version of the popular electric car, is now available in China and promises to impress with its cost-effectiveness. With a starting price of 44,800 yuan, equivalent to R$ 36 thousand, this 3.25-meter long compact car is shorter than the Renault Kwid, which starts at R$ 77.3 thousand.
The new model has a range of 205 km and an electricity consumption equivalent to 82.6 km/l, making it an attractive option for consumers.

Moreover, it comes equipped with standard dual airbags and electronic stability control (ESC), enhancing the safety of the occupants.
Platform and Performance of the Electric Car
This electric car utilizes a new platform called Tyaniu S and has a battery pack developed by Wuling itself.
With a capacity of 16.2 kWh, the vehicle offers adequate range for urban use and takes just 35 minutes to recharge 80% of the battery.
The 30 kW motor provides satisfactory performance, accelerating from 0 to 50 km/h in just 4.9 seconds and a top speed limited to 100 km/h.

The affordable price of the Wuling Hongguang Mini EV attracts attention, especially when compared to products like the Honda CG 160 Titan, which costs from R$ 19,520.
In addition, the car does not fit into the category of “xinguelingue”, a derogatory term associated with lower-quality Chinese vehicles from the past.
The miniEV is backed by reputable companies such as SAIC Motor and General Motors, ensuring its quality and reliability.

Its modern construction, high efficiency, and safety features position it as a viable alternative in the growing electric vehicle market.
