The Bingo vehicle stands out not only for its design and price, but also for its autonomy. Equipped with higher capacity batteries in specific versions, the model can travel up to 410 kilometers on a single charge, according to the Chinese measurement cycle. The entry-level version offers a autonomy of 203 kilometers, with a maximum speed limited to 100 km/h.

Competitive price of new Chinese electric vehicle

In China, the electric Wuling Bingo is sold on the market from 56,8 thousand yuan, which is equivalent to approximately R$41 thousand in direct conversion. However, if the model were imported to Brazil, the price would probably double due to taxes and fees, reaching something around R$85 thousand. Still, this price range would put Bingo in a competitive position in the entry-level electric market, competing directly with models such as the Renault Kwid E-Tech and the BYD Dolphin Mini.

The introduction of Wuling Bingo to the Brazilian market could be a strategic move, especially at a time when consumers are increasingly interested in affordable electric vehicles. Bingo's appeal lies not only in its price, but also in its combination of design, technology and autonomy, characteristics that make it attractive to a young, urban audience.

No chance of coming to Brazil, it's either BYD or nothing, it has to have scale, it has to have quality!
