2 Answers
The overall safety of the Wuling Hongguang MINI EV meets the national automotive safety regulations. The passenger compartment and battery compartment adopt a cage-type and frame-type high-strength steel structure respectively, achieving lightweight while ensuring high-dimensional safety protection for passengers and the battery. Below are the specific details about the Wuling Capa: Vehicle positioning: With body dimensions of 4875×1880×1690 mm and a wheelbase of 2800 mm, the Wuling Capa is classified as a mid-size MPV. Configuration: It comes standard with EPS electric power steering system, ABS anti-lock braking system, EBD electronic brake-force distribution system, tire pressure monitoring, and other safety features.
I usually commute in a Wuling Hongguang Mini, which is decent in terms of safety but don't expect anything too advanced. This little car is all about affordability—it's quite stable for short city trips, and its lightweight body makes it less prone to tipping over. However, it feels a bit floaty at high speeds, and the braking distance is longer than that of a regular car. Crash test results show no major issues, but with only one airbag, protection is limited in case of an accident. It's best to drive slower, especially on rainy days, and adding a rearview radar or dashcam can boost safety. For maintenance, keep an eye on tire wear and ensure the battery connections are tight. Since it's an EV, there's also the risk of spontaneous combustion, so park in shaded areas when possible. Overall, it's fuel-efficient and hassle-free—just don't expect too much in terms of safety, and you'll be fine with it.
