Chinese Mini Electrics Are Finally Going Global! Wuling Air EV 

The world needs more no frills, no gadgets, cheap EVs for those who only want to move from A to B. Greetings from Brazil!

That car, that. That car sold like crazy here in Indonesia. It's begin to be like a sort of a lifestyle vehicle. Added with the Indonesians creativity, the modification on that car is endless. Just look at those with mods on yt, there're a lot. It's becoming the car that transitioned indonesians from ICE vehicle into EV. And it's cheap, like for EVs that car is cheap, the cheapest ev in fact in Indonesia. So yeah, it's absolutely popular that car here.

I think this thing could take over the budget EV segment of the whole world

Since Indonesia drive on the same side as Australia. I'm hoping they bring this car to the Australian car market for dominance. We are screaming for a car like this. They could sell for double the cost and still would easily be the top 3 in ev sales monthly.

What an interesting proposition from Wulin, Love it!

This company is famous for the van that country folks in China love. Simple, affordable.

Greetings from Indonesia! Really happy that Wheelboys are featuring the car that I’m considering as a daily driver for crowded Jakarta street

PLEASE BRING THESE KIND OF CARS TO IRELAND, and the rest of the EU

The world needs an affordable, city electric car. Let's hope it is successfully deployed to the world.

we already get Air Ev since last year here in Indonesia

The animation of that little character is nice.

This is great on so many levels- most importantly, this is so affordable it allows the lower income groups to be able to gain more mobility to be able to travel for work/ school/ business/ leisure.

Great info about an EV that is priced within reach by more people who need a point A to point B light transport. Hello & gweetings from Z Republic of Cebu. Really do hope it gets here soon 😉

The styling of the Mini EV is cute and understated. The Air EV is absolutely hideous and over-styled.

I'm surprised Wuling didn't lead with Kiwi EV (0:12). That thing looks absolutely phenomenal.

See these everywhere in Indonesia, and there is a quickly-growing enthusiast scene around them. I'd love to have one of these in the US!

this sold crazy in here, wuling did the good research for their market

I foresee the Nissan Sakura being sandwiched between this and the BYD Seagull. The horror for the Japanese...!!

Well in Indonesia, Wuling AIR EV is 👍

This is the sexiest car of 2023 Ive seen so far.... i cant help imagine going to the market with my family in this. Im sure it would be allowed many places. My mouth waters.

This guy is like the Rick Steves of the EV world, and I like him!

I always wanted a tiny Fiat Multipla front with a Renault Twingo rear...

you can tell the quality of a vehicle in an instant by listening to how the doors sound when they close. Do they jitter? smooth glide? how hard do you have push or not push? does it give a solid CLUNK or a confident soft click into place? maybe it just sounds like a heavy tin can when you close it. how heavy is the door when you open it?

7:17 It might not be a powerhouse, but it's still more powerful than the noticeably heavier (and more expensive) Dacia Spring / Renault K-ZE.

Fantastic review as always, but I do have a request: would you mind someday reviewing the ORA Funky Cat? It’s just come out in Europe and I would like to see your take on it.

Three questions: Can this vehicle be serviced outside of China? Are all software updates done remotely? Is the UI only in Chinese?

Informative review thanks Please consider doing a review of Chinese electric vans being exported Cheers

The Wuling Air EV is coming to India in the name of MG Comet EV. And it is launching today.

The same vibe as my wife's Perodua Kenari She miss that car and i hope this wuling comes to my country

Hmmm , Almost small enough to hook it up to a weather balloon and float it over the USA ... does away with shipping container costs at least..😄

Bizarre, on one side the US and China are as unfriendly to each other as if going to war and then we have these cars...could this help improve relations? Also, why can't any mainstream US or European car manufacturer build something like these?

I would buy the $11.000 2seater version with fastcharging instantly, when it comes to the EU. Dont need 4 seats, we are just two.

Will they be subjected to Euro N-Cap safety tests? Are they even required to be?

when will this car be sold in the Netherlands....there is a huge market here..pls let me know

Such cute EV. I want one ASAP Where can I get one in nyc?

Can you review the santa fe 380t? That car looks good

I wonder what time did you make this video since in indonesia they already have wuling air ev video 4 months ago.

im more interested in its ac. is it as cold as a gas powered engines ac?

How do I buy one in the UK ? and how much is it in GBP

I think chinese version have a better UI and software for the head unit. And it also have fast charger too

Speed. Speed is a specification. When you specify the speed of a vehicle then you know how well it keeps up with traffic. Does it go fast enough to keep up with cars on the freeway? Did you think that is not an important specification to know? What did you think people buy cars for? Sitting inside of them and fiddling with the radio and controls? Did you think you could spend 10 minutes describing to us what it looks like when it's sitting right in front of us and we can see it? But not tell us how fast it goes? Which would take about 4 seconds?

The interior is better than many european cars

I just saw one on the road in Jakarta!

I've seen it as MG Air ev on vaction this last week.

The new Wuling Bingo looks interesting.

When this would be available in Canada?

Ideal - set up a manufacturing base in Spain, please!

I can't wait for this mini ev.

What is the safety thing on this thing?

I'm a 1% biker from the US and somehow I don't hate this at all. It's super niche, but pretty rad as an idea.

Will the Baojun Yep be sold in Thailand?

Is it air bags that are keeping it out of the US?

So I don’t think this is available in the states. I wonder why?

If this model ever comes to compete w/ the currently sold Zhidou D2s in the Benelux , it will need the Mini EV's motor as these kind of vehicles are registered as covered quadricycles , these can't have more then 45 hp and a top speed of 85 km/h. The Zhidou D2s is not very impressive (rented it for 7 days) , the D3 however was better looking & far more fluffy but only 1 was ever imported ...

How does one heat the cabin or seats? Does this come with front-wheel drive? What is the top speed?

lmao love ur welcome to the good life😂😂 can you do a Wuling Bingo?

It has this japanese Kei- Car cuteness with being even smaller. Could be that " Smart- car" from Cyberpunk :) You couldnt drive it because there was no plate? this tiny thing could easelie be test driven inside that big dealership :)

I like it! But of course… pipe dream for us

oh wow it got fast charging. in Indonesia all trims don't have it. so curious about it, maybe converting it to local chargers will make it pricier (it's the cheapest EV but still more expensive than the cheap standard-sized ICE cars here)

Wait what. Air ev in Indonesia doesn't have 360 camera, no fast charging port and priced 19700 USD.

Does this model have frontal airbags? I believe there is a big market for this car where I live, but it needs to have airbags, which is why I couldn't import the mini EV.

This vehicle is also being launched in India but Rebadged as MG Comet (Morris Garages Comet)

Can't wait for it to come to America. And sell it direct to consumers. No dealership markups. Do what Tesla does. Please make sure the audio system has Bluetooth and auxiliary input and at least 4 speakers in 4 corners with thumping bass. Make the battery as big as reasonably possible.

Will this be rebadged as a MG?

Where can i charge this?

I'm amazed that the voice assistant understood what you're saying. lol

I'd want this in Canada....

Hello , MG morris garage is trying to sell this exact model in india as their own ev production car .

Currently on sale in Thailand.

Mail a couple of them to Denmark please!

只要足够便宜，它唯一的缺点那就是便宜。

Do a range test with full capacity of sitting & cargo🖖

sometimes I wonder why the hell are things like drum brakes, lead batteries and halogen lights still being manufactured, I bet its gov subsidies & companies shaming you into getting a higher end trim

Can I get this from US?

How soon in the U.S.A. ?

It will be interesting to see how well this fares when Euro NCAP or the Australian NCAP test it.

I don't think that will pass the Australian crash test but would love one

here in jordan many companies emmport chines domistec cars such as the id6 and id4 and a good persentige of byd cars can be seen my faimely is looking forward to buy a jmev (sry for my bad english)

Wow double the price of Mini EV😮😲

I don't care if my butt hurts. I like the price.

any help for how can I buy it in India?

I can't believe this little car outsold Tesla lol

Кад ће бити доступан у Србији и по којој цени?

As a matter of fact, back in 2022, the Air EV 4-seaters made its world debut in Indonesia, instead of China

The MiniEV looks cool. The price is perfect and both interior and controls are simple - no "soft plastic hysteria", no annoying screens. Simplicity is a feature, not a bug. Now, this thing looks like the designers took too many drugs, it makes my eyes bleed. They try to make the interior more "high end" (fail!), add screens (fail!) and raise the prise (fail!). There's no way this thing wil be a success in Europe. Too bad.

I think these would sell well in japan

The only problem with this new vehicle is the price.(in some areas it might differ) In my country somewhere in Asia after government tax(corrupted government officials), greedy dealership and circus vile bank charges that car is currently priced at 40k which is ridiculous for an ev. Hearing that it only costs around 4-5k usd in china is mind boggling. I can buy a Toyota Hilux with that 40k.

global as in southeast asia?

Its quite hype in indonesia.. But expensive

I'd love to buy this for my wife.

Why are Chinese OEM voice controls all so much faster and better than any other OEM? Is it the actual software, or is mandarin easier to translate into text than other languages??

Wulling Air EV is sold as MG COMET in India !!

Does these models have Air bags?

How about acceleration? In Canada, we have so many rude impatient drivers .

Wuling comes to Canada let me know.

Isn't this MG comet?

Can I drive this on US roads? I want to buy one. I could import it as I am in the Army

This Wuling Air EV is sold as MG Comet EV in India 🇮🇳.

Cool for the Young Guys

If we as a whole to change the way we protect the environment with cleaner air with electric cars we need affordable vehicles not just for profit.
