Wuling, who always had a knack for surprises, brought a new, rather attractive toy. Recently, latest Wuling test machine was exposed on Internet. Machine, but size is very small, overall style of test car is very similar to Suzuki Jiminy.
Although actual spy photos of test car are not clear enough, it is clear that test car has a relatively high degree of completion.
The shape of light group at rear of car is relatively simple, and LED light source is used inside, in terms of workmanship and design, it is relatively ordinary, and it is possible that it is only a temporary part that provides functions. The wheel arches on both sides have a wide body design, making car look very full, and black iron ring is more in line with temperament of the whole car.
Refer to another group of pictures of car body, new car has good body proportions, size of front door is relatively large, and it will be more convenient to get in and out of car. From frame point of view, it seems that rear engine layout will be adopted, which will inevitably remind people of MINI EV, but there is currently no corresponding parameter announced, but they are relatively close in size, and it is possible that MINI EV engine will be used.
Overview
The new Wuling SUV model is quite interesting. It uses MINI EV concept as a whole and features a more creative style. Compared to cute styling of MINI EV, trappings of a hardcore SUV are also on this level. relatively rare. Such hardcore models are actually quite common overseas. With exception of Suzuki Jiminy that everyone thinks of, Mitsubishi and Daihatsu have produced similar models in past. As a model for urban transport, new car is undoubtedly more interesting, and higher ground clearance allows it to better adapt to road conditions in urban areas. However, there is currently relatively little information about new car, especially about front end design. Whether it uses a styling similar to MINI EV or uses a completely new shape with a creative touch, we can only wait for further news about new car.
