Does the Wuling Zhiguang have air conditioning?

As a 7-seater micro van, the Wuling Zhiguang comes equipped with air conditioning, making it highly suitable for urban, rural, and countryside markets. Additionally, it can meet the daily needs of small businesses in urban areas and is also capable of serving certain commercial markets. The specific steps to operate the Wuling Zhiguang's air conditioning are as follows: Open the driver's side door of the Wuling Zhiguang. Depress the brake pedal to prepare for engine start-up. Press the one-touch start button. All dashboard lights will illuminate, indicating the engine has started. Press the A/C button located on the center console to activate the automatic air conditioning system. Adjust the fan speed to enjoy cool air. The Wuling Zhiguang features a stylish T-shaped design with technological elements, presenting a novel, elegant, simple, and aesthetically pleasing appearance. The dashboard offers a wider and more spacious view. The center console includes silver-plated trim and storage compartments, and the audio system has been upgraded from a cassette player to a USB-equipped unit with a data cable, enhancing material harmony. The air conditioning vents are more rationally positioned. For example, adjustments to the angle between the legs and the ground and the foot's control over the pedals ensure a comfortable throttle angle, reducing foot fatigue and preventing ankle soreness during long drives.

I drive a basic Wuling Zhiguang, which didn’t come with factory-installed air conditioning, so I had to install it myself for around 1,000-2,000 RMB. It’s absolutely essential for summer deliveries—otherwise, the cabin temperature can soar above 40°C. After installation, the cooling is quick, but you need to regularly check the refrigerant levels, or the performance drops. If you’re buying a new one, I’d recommend opting for the higher trim with factory-fitted AC—it’s much more hassle-free. Back in my hometown, I’ve seen Wuling Zhiguangs without AC where drivers had to roll down windows, but the wind noise was terrible and compromised safety. Just remember to pay extra attention to the filter during routine maintenance.

As a veteran truck driver with over 20 years of experience, I can tell you most basic models of Wuling Sunshine don't come with AC. Always check the trim list before purchase - the economy version often omits this feature to cut costs. I recommend negotiating AC installation with the dealership. It's an affordable upgrade that significantly improves comfort, especially during scorching summer workdays. A simple rear AC unit won't compromise cargo space while allowing temperature adjustment to prevent driver fatigue. During installation, test for even airflow distribution. Don't underestimate this - non-AC models also fetch lower resale values.

The Wuling Zhiguang at my home is the version with air conditioning. It's super convenient to turn on the cold air when picking up the kids from school. The basic models like the standard version can be optionally equipped with it, just check the configuration list before buying a new car. The air conditioning starts quickly and has low noise, which doesn't affect chatting, but the air vents need to be cleaned regularly to prevent odors. If it's not installed, you need to prepare some sunshades in summer. The overall driving experience is more comfortable, which is also good for the elderly.

The Wuling Zhiguang varies in configuration depending on the specific model and year. Earlier economy versions typically lacked air conditioning, while current models like the luxury edition come standard with manual AC. Having test-driven several variants, I found the hot/cold air switching smooth, with adequate though not exceptional cooling efficiency—the affordable price being the key selling point. Always consult official configuration documents; aftermarket add-ons can be installed for under 1,000 RMB, but prioritize electrical safety—avoid DIY attempts to prevent issues.
