Does the Wuling Journey Have an Automatic Transmission?
2 Answers
Wuling Journey does not have an automatic transmission model. Below are the specific details about the Wuling Journey: Vehicle Positioning: The Wuling Journey is a brand-new nine-seat ultra-wide MPV, offering multiple seating layouts including 7, 8, and 9 seats, as well as a 2-seat window-sealed cargo version. Its dimensions are 5150/1840/1895 (1910) mm in length/width/height, with a wheelbase of 3180 mm. Powertrain: The Wuling Journey is equipped with a 1.5T engine, delivering a maximum power of 108 kW and a maximum torque of 250 N·m. The official combined fuel consumption is 7.6L per 100 km, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.
I've always considered the Wuling Journey to be a practical vehicle, mainly used for cargo hauling or family trips. As someone who has driven many models, I found that the Wuling Journey's transmission configuration is primarily manual—a 5-speed manual transmission paired with either a 1.8L or 1.5T engine, delivering quick response, fuel efficiency, and affordable maintenance. An automatic version? Honestly, it's quite rare among the mainstream variants, likely because Wuling aims to control costs and keep prices budget-friendly. If you need an automatic transmission, I'd suggest checking out other MPVs like the Baojun 730 or Changan Oushang, which offer automatic options for a more relaxed driving experience. While manual transmissions are great, shifting gears in heavy traffic can be tiring.
