How is the climbing capability of the Wuling Victory?

Even under extreme conditions such as continuous climbing or gear shifting, it can still coordinate with the engine to provide stable power output. Below are the relevant details: 1. Power: The Wuling Victory is equipped with a 1.5T+CVT/MT powertrain combination. The engine is paired with the latest generation turbocharger from Honeywell in the US. In extreme environments like high-altitude oxygen deficiency, the ECU precisely controls the intake advance angle, working in tandem with the turbocharger to supply sufficient air, achieving the optimal air-fuel ratio. This ensures robust power while saving fuel consumption. 2. Body Dimensions: The Wuling Victory is a compact MPV under the Wuling brand. The vehicle measures 4875 mm in length, 1880 mm in width, and 1690 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2800 mm. The Wuling Victory is a five-door, six-seater MPV.
I own a Wuling Capgemini, which I usually drive between the city and suburbs. Its climbing ability is decent. This car has a manual transmission with a 1.5-liter engine producing around 100 horsepower, so it handles common slopes like residential garage ramps or suburban mountain roads without issues. Last week, I took some friends camping in the park, and when climbing a small slope, the car went up steadily with the RPM staying around 2,000, which was quite fuel-efficient. However, if the slope is too steep, especially when fully loaded with people or cargo, the power weakens a bit, requiring more throttle input, and the noise increases noticeably. The braking system performs adequately when parking on slopes, and the hill-start assist function helps prevent rollback during takeoff. I recommend owners avoid overloading and maintain good tire conditions for safe and smooth climbing. Overall, it’s quite economical for daily use.
I've been driving the Wuling Capgemini for several years as the family's main car, testing its climbing ability on both rural roads and highways. The car is of medium weight, with a precise manual transmission, making it effortless to climb slopes in low gear. For example, last year when delivering goods to the mountains, it easily climbed a slope of about 25 degrees with a full load of about one ton, keeping the RPM around 2500 without a spike in fuel consumption. The key is not to suddenly accelerate on steep slopes to avoid engine overheating. I regularly check the brakes and suspension system to ensure safety when going downhill. The car is sturdy and durable, suitable for rough roads, but with limited horsepower, don't expect it to climb extremely steep slopes. Overall, with proper maintenance, it's a reliable companion.
