Geely Star Wish, the master of space magic, can you control seagulls and dolphins?

Geely Star Wish is indeed a very worthwhile A0-class transportation car, and it is indeed quite competitive in 2024, when BYD starts to raise prices to make money.

However, in today’s new energy era, the automotive industry is more like the Internet, which relies on explosive sales. The chaotic and complicated product lines and unrealistic SKUs are the biggest obstacles hindering the development of new energy by traditional car companies Geely.

The specific problem is that the SKU design is very unreasonable, the two beggar models are seriously castrated, and the safety of the through-side airbag as the top SKU is also very unfavorable.

Overall, the entry-level SKU is too "beggar version" to be competitive with seagulls, but it is still very good for dolphins.

PS: The above comments are based on my personal test drive experience, some model information, and the official pre-sale price. The vehicle has not yet been launched, and some news may not be very certain.

New energy cars, especially A00-class BYD seagulls, occupy an absolute market share. What little ants and waxy corn can only survive, and even the past king of sales, Wuling Hongguang miniEV, can only shiver beside it. Dolphins with ugly designs and poor configuration prices can also sell 15,000 a month.

I don’t know why, but no friend has been able to launch a new energy transportation car that punches seagulls and kicks dolphins to teach BYD how to behave.

PS: In fact, someone should have taken the lead today when battery costs have plummeted.

Recently, my colleague recommended me to learn about Geely’s upcoming new energy transportation car, Geely Star Wish. I passed by the Geely Oil Truck store to inquire about Geely Geometry’s store, which has not yet listed Geely Star Wish for experience and test drive.

When I arrived at the store, I found that geometry and pandas were all crowded into a very small exhibition hall for display. As a new car, Geely Star Wish had no place to display it. It was parked alone in the backyard parking space, but it was okay to take a test drive.

The highlight of Geely Star Wish is the size of the dolphin and the price of selling seagulls for space, coupled with liquid-cooled batteries and independent front and rear suspension (front McPherson rear three links), so as to achieve punching Beihai Kindergarten (seagulls) and kicking Nanshan Nursing Home (dolphins).

In terms of appearance design, although everyone’s aesthetics are different, the general direction is the same. The design of Geely Star Wish is round and cute, so no one should hate it, right?!

The internal space, I thought, is very extreme, but Geely seems to be better at space magic. Except for the huge and spacious

Outside the member space, the front trunk and trunk exceeded expectations, and even dug out a large number of co-pilot "drawers". There were also many small items hollowed out under the rear seat.

The rear seat cushion is slightly shorter, but it is basically the mainstream level of many new power large cars. It is acceptable in an A0-class car. There is plenty of head and knee space, and it can seat three people.

The car is said to be a Flyme system. The test ride time is relatively short and there is no in-depth test, but it shouldn’t be too bad, right?! Although the small and cute crystal gear handle is slightly suspected of copying the ocean, it is also very cute.

The many physical buttons on the door, center console, and steering wheel have made me feel the warmth of traditional car companies, and I hope that new power car companies can learn more.

The so-called urban starlight ambient light, I will not comment, after all, BYD’s over-design is to let people see the ascension, and then look at the auspicious star wishes do not feel violated.

Although Geely Star Wish is equipped with the front McPherson rear three-bar independent suspension, the actual test drive does not feel that there is a very obvious difference in terms of support, filter shock, etc. I don’t know if it is the manufacturer’s deliberate comfort adjustment or not, but in all fairness, Geely Star Wish is still a lightweight, compact and easy to drive small electric car.

PS: It is recommended that you do not expect anything from the manufacturer’s follow-up OTA, because of the well-known hip pull.

Of course, judging from the SKU information currently disclosed by the manufacturer, the low-end configuration is too "beggar version" regardless of function or performance. It is really not worth buying. It is really worth buying the sub-top Star Wish UP 410km exploration version with a guide price of nearly 10W, and the official revealed SKU seems to have only the top configuration with front and rear through side air curtains. It is really uncomfortable to use the security configuration as the SKU.

In addition, the biggest problem hindering the sale of Geely Star Wish is Geely’s complex and chaotic brand and product line. If there are pure electric models, there are sub-brands and car series such as Krypton, Galaxy, Geometry, Panda, Lynk & Co, Ruilan, Polaris, etc., and Geely Star Wish currently does not belong to any of the above sub-brands or car series. The confusion of Geely’s product line is evident.

If the wind is smooth and the water is smooth, it is good to sell directly. Once the early sales are unsatisfactory, it is difficult for grandma to have enough resources to invest in marketing if she does not love the "family brother position" that uncle does not love.

Geely Star Wish is a lightweight and easy-to-drive car with a lot of room for transportation. Even if the pre-sale price is still worth buying, whether it can be sold off depends on whether the price is surprising enough, and also depends on how much resources Geely Baba can invest. After all, Geely Star Wish is a new car series, and now it is the year 2024 when the seagull and dolphin have a solid dominance.

In fact, I think Geely Star Wish should not be sold with the geometric panda. It is better to sell it together with smart, and promote the affordable smart with space magic, which directly rises to a height that seagulls and dolphins cannot reach with their feet crossed.

PS: In fact, Geely itself has been through its own smart marketing star wish, it is better to do it directly.

Foton Tuano V creates the fifth-generation light passenger era to meet the diverse needs of users

  Foton Motor, as a leader in the field of commercial vehicles in China, has always regarded light passenger as the strategic core business of enterprise development. After 23 years of continuous exploration and accumulation, Foton Tuano has built the world’s strongest light passenger product lineup. Adhering to the simultaneous development of fuel and new energy, domestic and overseas markets have made simultaneous efforts, comprehensively covering various sub-sectors, providing customers with the best and most efficient multi-scenario passenger transportation and logistics solutions. In December 2023, Tuano’s large V was launched globally, and oil and electricity were synchronized, marking the national light passenger entering a new era.

Foton Tuano V creates the fifth generation of light passenger era to meet the diverse needs of users _fororder_image001

  Adhering to the "build a good car" big V came into being

  Looking back at the history of China’s light passenger development, the first four generations of light passenger were all imitating foreign technology and introducing domestic cooperation, and the main use of the products was focused on freight transportation. Foton Tuano independently innovated and developed, relying on product characteristics such as comfort, economy, green and balance, to widely meet the needs of passenger transportation and diversified modification, leading a new generation of national light passengers to go abroad and participate in international competition. This is the first globally oriented and highly scalable fifth-generation light passenger platform built by Foton Motor with the most stringent European Union regulations and standards: Tuano Big V. It can simultaneously expand the multi-technology routes of fuel, pure electricity, oil mixing, plug-in mixing, and range extension, with multiple driving modes of front drive, rear drive, and four-wheel drive. It provides three basic models of van, multi-function vehicle, and passenger car, and can flexibly expand special modification varieties such as RV, tool service vehicle, medical ambulance, and public inspection vehicle.

  Grade jump, the inevitable choice of upgrading

  At present, the demand for light passenger usage scenarios has been upgraded, and light passenger is no longer a simple means of transportation, but is transforming into household and passenger use. "There are many small and medium-sized VAN products on the market, but when you drive them out, you always feel that the grade is not enough, and you want a car with inside and face." In customer research, you often hear such a voice "In the past, the old sea lion was very good at pulling people, and it was convenient to get on and off the bus. Unfortunately, it is not allowed to be sold now, and IVECO’s car is too high." More and more users are putting forward higher requirements for appearance, grade, etc. Tuyano accurately grasps user requests and conforms to the trend of market youth. Once the Tuyano Big V was released, it attracted enthusiastic attention.

Foton Tuano V creates the fifth generation of light passenger era to meet the diverse needs of users _fororder_image003

  The overall design style of the Big V is closer to the passenger MPV, with a simple front face and a "V-shaped" design language, making the vehicle more modern and more MPV-like. In addition, for the first time in the industry, the standard electronic power steering is equipped with low-speed labor-saving, high-speed and stable; standard electronic handbrake, parking starts more calmly. The Big V is not only light in driving control, but also more comfortable in riding. Passengers enjoy VIP independent space, and the leather all-inclusive seats are comfortable and breathable, and the grade is full.

  MPV-class driving + extreme space, the king of performance in large VAN

  With the improvement of the quality of life of contemporary people, the pursuit of vehicle comfort and handling is becoming more and more urgent. The Tuano Big V adopts a super chassis "comparable to MPV-level tuning settings", completely breaking the traditional perception of light passenger driving control. Compared with the traditional light passenger, it reduces the turn and roll by 18%, realizes easy emergency obstacle avoidance at high speed, and the mountain road driving is more stable; weakens the bumpy impact by 21%, and the speed bump is "flexible on the upper hurdle, and straightforward on the lower hurdle"; bid farewell to the status quo of the traditional light passenger "a set of chassis is used to the end", and combines the scene differences to professionally tune the passenger and cargo chassis. 

Foton Tuano V creates the fifth generation of light passenger era to meet the diverse needs of users _fororder_image004

  For some individual owners, the traditional big VAN has problems of excess space and insufficient flexibility. The Tuano Big V perfectly meets the demands of users. In terms of space, it has a limit of 5490mm, a blue brand car length and a short shaft version of 4990mm, as well as three top heights of 1990/2195/2480mm, which meets the height limit of 99% community basements and supermarket basements. At the same time, it pursues the ultimate utilization rate in terms of width. Under the inner width of 1750mm, the outer width is controlled at 1980mm, and the inner space is protected, and the outer appearance is smart; the highest inner height in the high-top model industry meets the professional modification such as sojourn and ambulance, and the outer height does not exceed 2.5 meters, which meets the height limit requirements of most roads and bridges.

  Foton Tuano not only wants to build a "good car", but also a good car that the common people can afford and use. In terms of energy consumption, the fuel car reaches an ultra-low fuel consumption of 7.0L for 100 kilometers, and the power consumption of pure electric power is only 17.7kWh for 100 kilometers. Not only is it comfortable to drive, has a large space, and is flexible to pass through, but also saves energy and is a good hand, which can be called "all-round big V".

  Tuyano Big V, from customers, back to customers. Tuyano Big V will be officially listed in March. I believe that Tuyano Big V will lead national light customers into a new era and go global. (Source: Fukuda Tuyano)

Expert sitting

Q: The engine compartment of the Mondeo Win is dirty. Can it be cleaned with a high-pressure water gun?

A: It is absolutely not advisable to use a high-pressure water gun to flush the engine compartment. Today’s cars are equipped with an electronically controlled fuel injection system, and the engine compartment is equipped with an engine computer, a gearbox computer, an ignition computer, and various sensors and actuators. These electronic components are all controlled by voltage. After coming into contact with water, there may be a short circuit, which is likely to damage the engine computer. Generally speaking, the price of an engine computer is several thousand yuan, and the price of a sensor is also around 1,000 yuan. These accessories can be said to be very expensive. For the dust in the engine compartment, it is recommended that you go to a repair shop or tire shop to clean it with a high-pressure air gun, or use a wet towel without water to clean it up.

    

  Q: Why does Dongfeng Peugeot 307 antifreeze leak into the cab?

A: According to the phenomenon you described, there should be leakage in the warm air small water tank or water pipe joint. Peugeot 307 warm air small water tank is located in the cab. The specific position of the small water tank is close to the side of the driver’s right leg. The leakage part is generally the water pipe joint. Poor sealing of the water pipe joint will lead to antifreeze leakage. The possibility of leakage of the small water tank is very small. In this case, it is recommended that the vehicle go to the 4S shop for maintenance immediately. It can be solved by replacing it with new accessories.

    

Q: Is there no need to replace the environmental protection logo after the annual vehicle inspection?

A: The current environmental protection logo does not need to be replaced. The environmental protection logo received by the owner is accompanied by an electronic chip, which stores the relevant information of the vehicle. When the vehicle is inspected again, the information stored in the electronic chip will be used as the basis for testing. After the inspection, there is no need to replace the environmental protection logo card. Just refresh the chip and get a simple piece of paper.

    

Q: Is the Honda Fit automatic in D or N gear when waiting for the red light?

A: When driving a vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission while waiting for a signal light or stuck in traffic, some drivers often keep the shift lever in gear D and press the brake pedal at the same time. If the time is very short, this is allowed. But if you stop for a long time, it is best to change into gear N or P and tighten the parking brake. Because when the shift lever is in gear D, the automatic transmission car will move forward slightly. If you step on the brake pedal for a long time, it is equivalent to forcibly stopping this advance, which will increase the transmission oil temperature and make the oil easy to deteriorate.

    

  Q: Every time Yida starts, there will be abnormal noises when changing second gear. What’s going on?

A: Expert: When the vehicle is started at a speed of about 20 kilometers per hour, the ABS pump will make a self-test sound, and this phenomenon also exists in other brands of models. This sound will only appear after the engine is restarted, which is a normal phenomenon and does not require a 4S shop for maintenance.

    

Q: What should I do if the Audi A8L chassis cannot be lifted normally?

A: First check whether the air pump of the chassis lifting system is running normally, then check whether the relevant pipelines connected to the air pump are leaking, and whether the control unit of the lifting system is faulty. Start the engine to operate the chassis lifting and lowering should be able to hear the sound of the air pump working below. In addition, the failure of the chassis lifting height sensor will also cause it to not work properly.

    

  Q: In the 2005 Nissan Teana 350, why do you always hear similar noise while driving?

A: The Nissan Teana 350 is equipped with a CVT continuously variable transmission. This abnormal sound is commonly referred to as "barking". The reason is the matching of the high compression ratio of this model and the best speed ratio of the CVT continuously variable transmission. At present, there are two main reasons for this failure:

1) Fuel combustion quality. According to the requirements of environmental protection design standards and the compression ratio of models, models with Euro III or Euro IV emission standards should use Euro III or Euro IV fuel. If the gasoline octane number does not meet the standard, it will cause excessive emissions, which will be detected by the control system, causing the engine failure light to light up, or premature ignition knock due to high compression ratio.

2) Internal colloids and carbon deposits. During the storage and transportation of fuel, oxidation reactions are prone to occur, resulting in colloidal substances. These colloidal substances are divided into soluble colloids and insoluble colloids according to the solubility of gasoline. Insoluble colloids are also called deposits. After they are added to the car fuel tank together with fuel, they will adhere to the fuel filter, clog the filter medium, reduce the amount of fuel supply, insufficient oil transportation, and poor fuel atomization, resulting in thinning of the combustible mixture, and a decrease in engine power and economy.

After the soluble colloid enters the combustion chamber and burns together with the gasoline, many hard carbon deposits will be formed in the intake valve, the top of the piston, the piston ring groove, the combustion chamber, the spark plug and other parts, resulting in lax valve closure and engine performance degradation, such as unsmooth acceleration, unstable idle speed, stall, jitter, knock and a series of failures. Also affected by maintenance and the environment, during crankcase ventilation work, many impurities enter the intake pipe and burn, which also produces partial carbon deposits, which will lead to knock (called rod) phenomenon.

Maintenance plan:

1) Conduct internal cleaning according to vehicle conditions to remove carbon deposits formed inside the engine, and regularly clean or replace the air filter.

2) It is recommended to add No. 97 unleaded gasoline to the vehicle and slowly add the accelerator during use.

    

  Q: The old Bora has high fuel consumption recently. After inspection, it was learned that the spark plug gap is too large. Can you adjust the spark plug gap and continue to use it?

A: The working condition of the spark plug has a lot to do with fuel consumption. The function of the spark plug is to generate an electric spark when the high voltage electricity skips the gap between the electrodes and ignites the mixture in the cylinder. At present, the gap of the spark plug of the EFI engine is mostly between 1.0~ 1.2mm (specific to the gap of each model, you need to refer to the maintenance manual). If the gap of the spark plug is too large, it will cause the jump voltage to be higher, so that the ignition coil will heat up beyond the load, or even burn out, and there will be a phenomenon of fire failure at high speed; if the gap is too small, the spark time will be shortened, resulting in a reduction in the ignition energy and it is not easy to ignite the mixture. Therefore, be sure to ensure a normal spark plug gap.

Volkswagen Bora model spark plugs are replaced every 30,000 kilometers, and must be replaced after driving to the specified mileage, and cannot be adjusted for continued use.

    

    Q: The fuel consumption information of the new Jingcheng driving computer shows 8.8 liters, but the actual fuel consumption is about 11 liters. Why is that?

A: Today’s cars are equipped with a large number of electronic information devices, which is indeed helpful to drivers. For example, outside the car temperature information, instantaneous fuel consumption, fuel consumption of 100 kilometers, oil level information, etc., but these information manufacturers call reference information. The 8.8 liters of fuel consumption you see is not the most accurate fuel consumption, and can only be used as a reference. For the new automatic transmission range, it is normal for the 1.8L displacement engine to consume between 10 and 11 liters under comprehensive road conditions. It is difficult to control the fuel consumption within 10 liters when driving in urban areas.

    

  Q: The Maiteng engine failure light is on, and No. 93 unleaded gasoline has been added to Sinopec Group. What should I do now?

A: Expert of Wanche Network: The lighting of the Maiteng engine fault light indicates that the exhaust emissions exceed the standard, or the engine working condition is abnormal. The lighting of the fault light has a lot to do with the oil. Adding low-grade gasoline or inferior oil will cause the engine failure light to light up. Maiteng 1.8T engine needs to add No. 97 unleaded gasoline. You can try to replace the high-grade oil first. If the fault light will still light up after replacing No. 97 gasoline, focus on checking whether the oxygen sensor signal is normal. Poor or damaged oxygen sensor will cause the fault light to light up. Then there is carbon deposition inside the engine. Too much carbon deposition will also cause the fault light to light up.

    

Q: The new Elysee engine fault light is on, and the accelerator pedal loses its function, and there is obvious shaking in the idling speed. The failure will still occur after cleaning the throttle body. What’s going on?

A: The Elysee engine fault light is on, and the accelerator pedal loses its function. It may be caused by poor contact of the electronic throttle body connector, which has nothing to do with the carbon deposition of the electronic throttle body. This fault phenomenon requires the replacement of the electronic throttle connector. There are many phenomena in which the faulty light is lit due to poor contact of the throttle body connector of the Elysee car. Secondly, check the accelerator pedal position sensor. Damage or abnormality of the pedal position sensor can also lead to such faults. The loss of the accelerator pedal will affect driving safety. Such faults need to be repaired in time.

Drop 120,000! Cadillac XT5 new listing "no ink", only sold 279,900

Source: Spy Finance (ID: Spy Finance)

Just now, Cadillac officially released the news of "new XT5 pre-sale", but I didn’t expect the price to be a "Wang fried"!

The SAIC-GM Cadillac has temporarily launched three models for the "new XT5", and the official price guidance is 399,900 yuan deluxe version, 419,900 yuan distinguished version and 459,900 yuan platinum version.

But here’s the thing.The three "new XT5" models are all four-wheel drive models, with a hummingbird chassis as standard. According to its official words, "entry is luxury".

Remember when Cadillac introduced the CT5 midsize sedan,Once shouted a "no rear drive, no luxury" brand slogan, now it has become "door is luxury".

It can be seen that SAIC GM is also "shopping". In addition to the high configuration and the usual material kindness, the key is to cast the price "trump card", these three four-wheel drive models have dropped by 120,000 yuan, and the entry-level luxury version directly into the 280,000 yuan or less.

Compared with the old XT5, the new XT5’s appearance and interior style are basically replaced by the family style of Cadillac’s flagship sedan CT6, but from the feedback of public opinion, this set of appearance is somewhat "not very compatible" on the flagship sedan, plus the back, sales are very poor.

However, this set of appearance and interior is used on the XT5, and with the addition of a longer and wider body size, it looks very imposing and domineering. The interior is also a large screen, creating a very good sense of technological luxury.

For example, the new XT5 car is 4888mm long, 75mm longer than the old model; the car is 1957mm wide, 54mm wider than the old model; the car is 1694mm high, 12mm higher than the old model. It looks obviously taller and more powerful than the old model.

But looking at it the other way around, the new XT5 weighs 1960khg, the same as the old four-wheel drive version, but the fuel consumption is 8.23L/100km, which is much higher than the old four-wheel drive 7.97L/100km.

If you don’t care about the extra fuel consumption, can you buy the new XT5 with your eyes closed? In the medium-sized SUV of the fuel car, you want both luxury brand and affordable price, or four-wheel drive, the new XT5 is really cost-effective.

Domestic Peugeot 508 exposed spy photos, using the same power as the C5

  Recently, industry information revealed that Dongfeng’s power system configuration is identical to that of PSA’s models on the same platform, which also means that in addition to appearance and configuration, the 508 will be very different from the overseas version of the power system.

  The domestic Peugeot 508, which was originally revealed to be on the market, finally broke its promise. According to the news revealed by General Manager Zimmerman, the final domestic production time of the domestic Dongfeng Peugeot 508 has been determined in July 2011. Then we speculate that the first public appearance may be at the Shanghai International Auto Show in late April.

  However, there was no need to wait until a group of new domestic model test car spy photos were exposed. In addition to the front and rear Lion logo and Dongfeng Peugeot and the model information being covered by tape, the domestic model has been completely exposed to us. At the same time, the new information also made it clear that the power system configuration of Dongfeng Peugeot 508 will be exactly the same as the power configuration of the C5 model on the same platform under PSA, which also means that in addition to the appearance and configuration, the power system will be very different from the overseas version of the model.

  From the perspective of the power system configuration of the overseas version, the different and transmission combinations include three gasoline models and five diesel models. The Peugeot 508 is equipped with a 1.6L engine jointly developed with PSA (Peugeot Group), of which, depending on the adjustment, the entry-level version of 1.6VTi is 120PS (88kW)/6000rpm, 160N · m/4250rpm; while the high-end version of 1.6THP can output up to 156PS (115kW)/6000rpm, up to 240N · m/1400rpm.

  In addition, there will be a diesel version, which will offer up to 3 diesel options and add HDi technology. Among them, the 508 1.6 e-HDi 112 version has a theoretical fuel consumption of only 4.2L per 100 kilometers, and CO2 emissions are only 114g/km (eventually reduced to 109g/km).

  The diesel version is naturally not suitable for the Chinese market, but the two 1.6L gasoline version models are still out of China, especially the 1.6T engine that has appeared in the imported 308CC and the newly launched 3008 new car, which is also temporarily out of the domestic model. However, there is no plan to introduce engines.

5

  But on the other hand, Wei Wenqing, the general manager of Dongfeng, revealed in an interview with the media: "In 2012, all Dongfeng models will be equipped with a 1.6T engine and a 6-speed manual, and the 4-speed transmission will also be completely discontinued." So this may mean that in 2012, Dongfeng Peugeot’s corresponding models will also use a 1.6T turbocharged engine.

  The domestic Peugeot 508 model, which will be launched in the middle of this year, will be equipped with 2.0L and 2.3L four-cylinder gasoline engines, as well as a 3.0L V6 engine. Previous environmental catalogs have shown that Dongfeng Peugeot’s DC7202DTAM, DC7202DTAA and DC7232DTAA three power configurations are the five-speed manual 2.0L model, the 6-speed automatic 2.0L model, and the 2.3L 6-speed automatic model.

6

  It is basically the same as the current Dongfeng configuration, but Dongfeng Peugeot’s 2.0L automatic transmission model has been upgraded from a 4-speed manual to a 6-speed manual. In addition, the latest exposure of the test car spy photos shows that in addition to the single-sided single-exhaust pipe model, the domestic Peugeot 508 model with double exhaust pipes has also been exposed, which should be the highest power configuration version equipped with the V6 engine.

  In addition, in terms of suspension configuration, the domestic model should use the improved front and multi-link independent rear suspension. The front suspension of the overseas version of the "GT" model adopts a proprietary design, reflecting the demand for higher handling performance. Unlike the genuine 308 models in the past, Dongfeng Peugeot only launched the 206-facelifted Dongfeng Peugeot 207 model and the 308 extended sedan version of Dongfeng. The upcoming domestic 508 model can be said to be quite fast in terms of introduction speed.

7

  The adjustment of the power system of the 508 model after the domestic production cannot be completely said to be a shrinkage. After all, the main diesel models in the European market are not suitable for the Chinese market. As for whether the configuration will be adjusted compared with overseas models, it remains to be further revealed in April. (Text/Tencent Auto)

Cumulative sales exceeded 1.11 million! Find the secret of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV’s popularity

Trainee reporter | Zhang Zhuoran

Image source | Respondents provided

Walking on the streets of Liuzhou, the unique smell of snail powder fills the air, it is difficult to say whether it is "intentional" or "careless", perhaps the city of Liuzhou has the unique personality of "Internet celebrity manufacturing machine", which can always make some seemingly niche products popular all over the country: Jin Yong praised "Liuzhou coffin, famous all over the world" in "Deer’s Cauldron"; Liuzhou golden throat treasure, is the first impression of Ronaldo after many 90s; Liuzhou street snack snail powder, in recent years, has become a phenomenon of "national cuisine"…

Wuling Hongguang MINIEV is the same. It is also a generation of "Internet celebrity" produced by Liuzhou. As of now, the cumulative sales of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV have exceeded 1.11 million, and it is popular all over the world.

Global sales champion of small pure electric vehicles

"In 2022, the cumulative sales volume of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV exceeded 554,000 units, becoming the global sales champion of small pure electric vehicles." On January 30, SAIC-GM Wuling held the Wuling Hongguang MINIEV2022 Global Sales Champion Celebration and Thanksgiving Owner Conference at Wuling Liuzhou Direct Store (Bayi Store). Cui Dongshu, Secretary General of the Passenger Federation, announced the championship transcript of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV at the event site.

This is a landmark moment. Since its launch in July 2020, as of January 29, 2023, the cumulative sales of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV have exceeded 1.11 million, won the first place in the sales of pure electric vehicles of Chinese brands for 28 consecutive months, and topped the global monthly sales champion of new energy single models for 7 times.

This "high score answer sheet" highlights the benchmark position of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV in the new energy scooter market segment. Cui Dongshu pointed out: "Wuling’s global sales record proves that China’s pure electric cars have supported the market leader, and new energy scooters have become the new mainstream of the world." At the event, SAIC GM Wuling announced that before March 31, 2023, Wuling Hongguang MINIEV will be priced at 29,800 yuan for a limited time.

Insight into users’ short-distance travel needs

"The most popular car on the road here is the Wuling Hongguang MINIEV. In some neighborhoods, eight out of ten households own this car," a local taxi driver told reporters.

At present, the Wuling Hongguang MINIEV can almost be called a city card of Liuzhou. In the city center area, this exquisite car can be seen everywhere. The municipal government even designated a parking area for the A00-class car represented by the Wuling Hongguang MINIEV on the sidewalk of the roadside, and built a "10-minute charging ecosystem", forming a local spectacle. In other cities, the place used to park bicycles and electric cars is full of Wuling Hongguang MINIEVs in Liuzhou.

"The new energy conversion rate of automobiles in Liuzhou is close to 50%, and Wuling Hongguang MINIEV has contributed greatly." The relevant person in charge told reporters.

What is the secret of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV’s hot sales? The reporter got a variety of answers from a group of car owners: "Cost-effective, cheap and high-quality." "Exquisite and compact, it is very convenient to drive and park, and it can come and go freely in the city." "Household electricity can be charged, and the charging speed is fast and the power consumption is low, which can fully meet the commuting needs in the city."

Whatever the reason, Wuling Hongguang MINIEV meets the needs of this group of users for a city scooter, which also coincides with the car consumption scene observed by Wuling. "80% of Chinese users drive less than 30 kilometers per day, and the average speed does not exceed 30 kilometers per hour. This simple short-distance travel demand faces many travel pain points such as difficult parking, high cost and insecurity in the city," said Zhang Yiqin, director of brand and public relations at SAIC-GM Wuling Wuling.

Wuling Hongguang MINIEV, which is positioned as a "people’s scooter", was born in response to the situation, with a smart body, flexible control, small battery for easy replenishment, and safety that can stand the test as the product label, bringing users the value experience of "easy to open, easy to stop, and easy to save".

Millionchaochuang, directly connecting users

Wuling Liuzhou Direct Store (Bayi Store) is located in the center of Liuzhou. In the past year, this direct-operated store has sold more than 4,000 Wuling and Baojun brand pure electric cars, making it a benchmark store for Wuling LING HOUSE.

Large floor-to-ceiling windows, various peripherals, coffee desserts, modified areas… In the Bayi store, there are only 4 cars on display, but there is an endless stream of customers entering the store.

"The meaning of LING HOUSE is different from that of traditional dealers. This is the window where we can directly connect with users," Wei Shengyun, a partner at Liuzhou New Energy Vehicle Experience Center, told reporters. "This can be a rest area for users, and it can also allow users to make tide changes and personalized DIY on vehicles. It also allows us to directly hear the voices of users and avoid the valuable opinions of users being filtered by the dealer system."

This direct user window has given SAIC-GM Wuling the confidence to defeat competitors and attack the next "1 million" sales. According to Wei Shengyun, there used to be a 4S store of the same level of competitors that opened diagonally opposite the Bayi store, but the inflow of customers and the sales volume of the store are less than one-tenth of the Bayi store. Now there are no people there.

Big data shows that among Wuling Hongguang MINIEV users, the post-90s generation accounts for more than 75% of users, and the proportion of female users is as high as 78%. "No makeup." This is the customary "habit" of many Wuling Hongguang MINIEV owners represented by "Wuling Girls". Through customization, they have turned the car into a carrier of personality and hobbies, which has also led to a change in domestic car consumption attitudes, allowing the concept of car modification to gradually penetrate from overseas to domestic.

The relevant person in charge introduced: "Wuling Hongguang MINIEV has achieved a user trend creation rate of up to 72%." With Wuling Hongguang MINIEV as the carrier, SAIC-GM Wuling plays with users to create and resonate at the same frequency, continuing to lead the trend creation and trendy makeup culture. It also cooperates with KFC, Wufangzhai, Fashion Bazaar and other young people’s favorite brands to establish multi-faceted links with consumers.

This user-created cross-border marketing is also one of the reasons why Wuling Hongguang MINIEV has sold a long rainbow all the way. If the first "million sales" cannot be separated from Wuling’s first-mover advantage in the blue ocean of the "people’s scooter" category, then a high proportion of young users, as well as the company’s strong user request insight and system power, will become the source of confidence for this car to hit the next "million sales".

"After the demand for short-distance transportation is met, the small new energy vehicle market will develop in the direction of meeting the advanced needs of user differentiation (such as large space, intelligence, personalization and other needs). SAIC-GM-Wuling will continue to put people’s needs first and market development as the guide to bring users a more diverse and personalized travel experience," said the relevant person in charge.
