Can the Wuling Hongguang S connect to Bluetooth?

It can connect to Bluetooth. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. Car Bluetooth: Car Bluetooth is an in-vehicle wireless hands-free system designed and developed based on wireless Bluetooth technology. Its main function is to connect with a mobile phone via Bluetooth for hands-free calls while driving normally, thereby freeing the hands and reducing the risk of traffic accidents. 2. Function and Usage: If the car Bluetooth technology is integrated with the car's audio system, when in use, a Bluetooth-enabled phone paired with the car's audio system allows the driver to automatically switch the audio sound to mute during incoming calls. The sound automatically resumes when the call ends. After installing a car Bluetooth system, the driver does not need to divert attention when answering calls while driving. To answer an incoming call, the user only needs to press a button lightly or use voice control, enhancing driving safety and convenience.
I've been driving my Wuling Hongguang S for almost two years now, bought the base model in 2018 which didn't come with Bluetooth functionality, but I think this is quite common. Later I purchased a cigarette lighter Bluetooth receiver online, just plug it in and it works – connects to my phone's Bluetooth for hands-free calls and music playback. Setup was super simple: plug in the adapter, turn on phone Bluetooth to search and pair, cost me less than 80 RMB. Much safer while driving as I don't need to fiddle with my phone. If you have a higher trim model from 2020 onwards, it might come with factory Bluetooth – just pair directly through the infotainment system. I'd suggest checking the owner's manual or in-car settings menu first. This small Bluetooth upgrade has significantly improved my daily driving experience, especially for playing music or receiving navigation voice prompts during long trips without wasting time.
As a car enthusiast, I've researched the Wuling Hongguang S's configurations. The base model usually doesn't come with built-in Bluetooth, but DIY installation is quite easy. I recommend using an AUX Bluetooth adapter or USB-to-Bluetooth module, which only costs a few dozen yuan. Just plug it into the car's AUX port or USB port, connect via your phone's Bluetooth, and you'll instantly have call and audio playback support. During installation, make sure to check if the cigarette lighter supports power supply; if it doesn't pair successfully on the first try, simply restart your phone. This modification is low-cost and practical, while also preventing distractions while driving. Higher-end versions might come with built-in Bluetooth, so you can directly pair via the car's infotainment system. In short, even if the original car doesn't have it, a simple modification can bring you modern convenience.
