How many tons can a Wuling mini truck carry?
3 Answers
Wuling mini trucks can carry 1 ton. The cargo box dimensions for the Wuling single-row model are 2501mm, 1424mm, and 362mm; the Wuling double-row model has cargo box dimensions of 2000mm, 1424mm, and 362mm. The single-row model offers a cargo volume of up to 1318L, while the double-row model provides up to 1080L. In terms of power, the Wuling mini truck is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 73kw and meeting the China VI emission standards. For suspension, the Wuling mini truck features a front MacPherson independent suspension and a rear semi-independent suspension with spiral spring link swing arms.
I've been driving a Wuling mini-truck for over a decade to transport goods. The Wuling Rongguang mini-truck can carry a maximum of about 1.2 tons; exceeding this makes the chassis creak and increases the risk of axle breakage. I remember once overloading it to 1.8 tons with construction waste, which resulted in brake failure and nearly caused an accident. Now, I only carry loads under 1 ton and regularly check the tires and shock absorbers, which has extended the vehicle's lifespan and saved on repair costs. Road conditions also matter—rural roads with many potholes can't handle heavy loads, and you have to be extra cautious about overload fines on highways. I recommend buying a simple scale to weigh your cargo; safety comes first and it gives peace of mind.
I usually deliver packages with a Wuling Hongguang, which has a rated load capacity of 0.8 tons. It handles light cargo very steadily, but when my friend insisted on loading 1 ton of goods, the vehicle became extremely bumpy and fuel consumption surged. I believe 1 ton is the limit; exceeding it not only accelerates vehicle wear but may also lead to tire blowouts. It's crucial to check the cargo weight—estimate it clearly before unloading and use a mobile app to assist in measurement. Once this becomes a habit, the operation runs smoothly and avoids trouble with traffic police inspections.
