How many years can the Wuling Hongguang mini be driven?
2 Answers
Wuling Hongguang mini can be driven for as long as you want, as there is no mandatory retirement based on age. The criteria for vehicle usage duration and retirement are as follows: Vehicle usage duration: For private passenger vehicles, according to current laws, the duration is calculated based on mileage. The vehicle must be retired after reaching 600,000 kilometers, but there is no restriction on how many years a car can be driven. Vehicle retirement criteria: A vehicle must be retired if it is severely damaged and cannot be repaired, if it still fails to meet the national safety technical requirements for motor vehicle operation after repair and adjustment, or if exhaust pollutants or noise still exceed national or local emission standards after repair, adjustment, or the application of emission control technology.
I have a Wuling Hongguang Mini, and I've been driving it for almost three years. I feel like it can easily last another seven or eight years. These small cars are particularly sturdy. I mainly use it for commuting in the city, with occasional short trips on weekends. The key is regular maintenance—don't overcharge or over-discharge the battery, and check the tires and brake system every six months. My neighbor's car is over five years old and still running fine, just with a bit of battery degradation. Replacing the battery only costs a few thousand yuan. Avoid driving too fast on bumpy roads. Electric cars have a simple structure with fewer faults, so I think it can easily last a decade or more with normal use, as long as you don't abuse it.
