Why The Wuling Hongguang Is The Best Selling Car Model In China 

Never see you drive one. Maybe I don't watch enough videos from your Channel?

Wow, didn't expect to see Daniel commenting on a radom car review video :)

@Jerry Houston I've seen these messages like 50 times. Why would you want to hack there account

Hi Daniel! I thought I must be the only foreigner in China to drive a Wuling bread van! One day I was driving some Chinese colleagues around, and got a great laugh from a toll booth attendant, who said she had never seen a white guy drive a mianbao che, let alone carrying Chinese passengers! I bought the Wuling van for my brewpub (FUBAR), and even though the pub is closed, I have kept the van. At times I am tempted to "upgrade" to a nicer vehicle, but this is just so practical for carrying my dog and crap around. Funny thing is, the Shenzhen license plate is worth more than the car! Now that I"m moving back to Huizhou full time, and rarely need go to Shenzhen, I may finally be motivated to trade for a more refined car.... but it couldn't possibly have more character.

reasonable

and manual and middle put engine.

infact in China here now, some guy somehow plug a v8 5.0L engine into it and it bring his owner a goldenprize for his owner

😂😂

It's like a giant Lotus, isn't it?

It's cheap, what do you expect... Of you want a good chinese car then get an MG

or as boomers says in the 70s: if we die, we die like men

But it does have leather seats, Touch screen, Cooled steer,

@Ben Louis actually a lot of people live in the city buy this car too，small business ,Wuling sold around 5 millions of this car until 2020

How does it drive uphill? Say 25 degrees inclined road with blind curves? Mountainous areas usually have very steep roads

@@NACAFarm My father live in a mountain village，it used to have a 5km mud road with a lot of large degrees uphills and blind curves

@@huarongliu8938 does he deliver tofu

@@hankhuang1230 LOL 哥们这个梗深了。。。。Turbo Charged, RWD, 6 speed.........

lol. ikr, there are so many MEMEs about it in China

I learn sth new today.

Lambos are terrible to drift in mountains

Hahahana is a joke, because there are many small shops in China that use this car to transport goods. They can use this car to fill people or goods and drive at incredible speeds.

Well lambos dont live in that habitat.

hah almost same thing happened to me , r you chinese ?

@@user-pl8ik5ku3j yup

that's because of the drivers skill. there is no way something like this can come anywhere near a Range Rover

​@@ahsanhaider6549 If you're suggesting more skill, less audacity. Then you're rights.

Was Bunta Fujiwara the driver by any chance 🤣 ?

13-14k is a nice bargain. cars like this often starts at 24k in the U.S. market.

After Diaper Trumpet's 🎺 mustarded tariff ? You can kiss his leaky faucet.

With no airbag and no ESP? Are You high? You can buy a base corolla in Canada and states for 16k with 8 airbags and ESP and backup camera.

hmm, nice for the price... but would like to see results made by IIHS/ EuroNCAP. Such masterpieces usually fail... Anyway, thanks for this interesting video

@@livefreeordiehard8898 but you cant stufing stuff on your corolla rite ? This is basically chinese version of nissan NV200 lol Also asian love families gathering.. sooo.. yeah a 3 seater SUV/MPV always wins over a sedan in most asia country lol

lots of options in China

more like Uhaul

True!

X1 is not a beamer it's a shame that's what that is Even BMW says so! 😁😁

Good idea, look into that.

lol. NO. More than 50% of shares are owned by a Chinese company

steven xue u say no like he’s wrong, he said partially owned, just because they own more than 50% doesn’t mean gm doesn’t own a part of it

BMW Royal huh. I thought he wrote “Wuling is practically owned by GM though” last time, I guess I can’t read

Just a small portion. People in China can't afford to let Chinese legend is owned solely by GM hillbilly

True😂

Im from indonesia

I was thinking the same, it's basically Chinese attempt at making the Kijang lol, but Kijang have better ride (even the Kijang Kapsul)

Is it more comparable with Avanza?

@@ekoiswinarso it's about the same size as the kijang/innova so it's more comparable to that. Avanza is a lot smaller

It has size of innova but price of avanza... I think wuling ID will use this to replace Confero.

In my country it is sold as Chevrolet N400.

@@VictorNoelCoryPaz Cheers mate, you've seen through the trick GM pulled. When you take these rebadged Wulings into consideration, you'll easily find that they ain't no new things for people around the globe - only in rich countries they're new.

@@binong7366 Cheers to you too m8! GM also sells a couple of Korean and Brazilian made cars here in my country. The only real American GM car for sale here is the Suburban.

SAIC Motor (50.1%) General Motors (44%) Wuling Motors a tiny bit

The Jimny is my dream car.

I stopped by a Hongqi dealership the other day and I was actually really impressed with what I saw. We will have a review of the new H9 sedan soon!

@@Wheelsboy see if you can review the Hongqi L5 or L4.

maybe stand on a L5 and speak through microphones on roof of the car is better

Gabriel Wynkoop China road condition is not bad so the off road ability is not that important. This car has a lot of potentials for business use and cheap enough which made it so popular. By the way pickups are only allowed drive in the rural areas in China.

My father got 1 of this

these are not for basic transportation. they make cars fully prepared that you are goona drive that car with several goats in it. this is for small business owners one car fits all kinda need.

@@zhangdayu2206 That is exactly what is needed for the rest of the world as well. My current car is a Citroën Nemo small van, it's the most practical car I've ever had. I reckon at least four goats could fit.

There is a naturally aspirated 1.5L available as well

what

Corona from China! now cars from China! has the world gone mad?

Really? We haven't seen the numbers, but the lack of airbags would seem to make that somewhat hard to believe...

@@Wheelsboy - Well, I watched some ASEAN NCAP videos testing Wuling cars... not this one specifically, but others.

pack in a suit case.

Actually, Wuling in Indonesia is just Baojun

I also bought Wuling Almaz RS Pro

Looks like the official number is 7.3 (L/100KM), which aligns with what we saw during testing.

No. I've driven mine over 90,000 km (56,000 miles) with no problems (except for the cheesy air conditioner). They are known for being reliable.

Depends where you want to drive. If you want access to the Shanghai city center and to drive on the elevated roads at all times of the day, then you’re going to spend well over 100,000 RMB for the privilege.

Only 4-6 super big cities(over 15million people) have such limit,you need to pay 3000usd to 12000 usd to get the local license plate,in other city it is free.If you dont have local license plate,you cant drive it in center city when rush hour

10000 usd

Straight axle with leaf springs, old school as hell.

@@Wheelsboy thanks for replying. Very rudimentary!

@@Wheelsboy wow, realy leaf spring? i have a confero s in Indonesia or named hongguang s1 in China it has a 4 link rigid axle with coil spring in the rear

But then no airbags and esp. Cars entering Brunei needs the crash ratings too like NCAP/NHTSA except CNCAP *somehow this one is not accepted. Hence why you dont see new Chinese branded cars being sold in Brunei except the rebadged one which also been crash tested by reputable crash tester and hv added safety standards.
