2 Answers
Wuling Hongguang can accommodate 8 people, with configurations available in 5-seat, 7-seat, and 8-seat variants. Body dimensions: The new Wuling Hongguang has a body length of 4420mm, width of 1685mm, and height of 1755mm (1770mm with roof rack). Compared to the older classic version, the length has been reduced by 20mm while the width has increased by 25mm. Interior dimensions: The maximum practical interior dimensions of the Wuling Hongguang are: length 2100mm, width 1400mm, and height 1310mm. The cargo space can reach 1750L by simply folding the rear seats, and can be expanded to 3050L by removing the rear seats and folding the middle row seats. The top trim features front seats with 8-way adjustable design, offering 190mm of fore-aft travel. The middle row seats come with independent armrests and can be adjusted for position and backrest angle, with 160mm of fore-aft travel.
I've driven the Wuling Hongguang many times, mainly for family use. It's typically designed as a 7-seater: two seats for the driver and front passenger, two seats in the middle row, and three seats in the third row, totaling seven people. With a large family, our weekend outings include me, my wife, two kids, and grandparents, perfectly filling all seven seats with enough space for small luggage without feeling too cramped. However, I must emphasize that according to traffic regulations, the maximum passenger capacity is seven. Overloading is not only illegal but also dangerous. I once tried squeezing in an eighth person (a neighbor), and the car became unstable, prone to tipping during turns. For daily use, it's best not to exceed seven passengers to ensure comfort and safety. The interior seats can be folded, but avoid rearranging the layout when carrying passengers. Overall, it's an economical choice suitable for large families or occasionally transporting friends.
