Does the Baojun 310w have 7 seats?
2 Answers
The Baojun 310w does not have 7 seats; it only has 5 seats. Taking the 2020 Baojun 310w as an example, its body structure is a 5-door, 5-seat station wagon. The vehicle dimensions are: length 4620mm, width 1710mm, height 1535mm, with a wheelbase of 2750mm. The fuel tank capacity is 40 liters, and the trunk capacity is 740 liters. The curb weight is 1206kg. The 2020 Baojun 310w features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 105 PS, a maximum power of 77 kW, and a maximum torque of 135 Nm. It is paired with a 5-speed mechanical automatic transmission.
I've been driving the Baojun 310W for a while now. This car is quite practical in the city, with an surprisingly large trunk space that's more than enough for daily grocery shopping or carrying luggage for outings. But to be clear, it doesn't have a 7-seater version; the official configuration is for 5 seats. Personally, I don't think it's possible to add more seats in terms of design because the wheelbase isn't that long to begin with. Forcing in more seats would make it cramped with no legroom and could even affect suspension safety. When my family is larger, I'd recommend going straight for the Baojun 730, which is specifically designed as a 7-seater and is much more comfortable to sit in. When choosing a car, safety and comfort should come first. Don't count on modifications; maximizing space utilization could increase fuel consumption and risks. For daily use, the 5-seater is sufficient for small family needs, and with a trunk depth of over one meter, it's no problem to haul larger items.
