How many years can the Wuling Hongguang Plus commercial version be driven?
2 Answers
The Wuling Hongguang Plus commercial version does not have a specific scrapping age limit, but it will be mandatorily scrapped when the maximum mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers. Below is the relevant introduction of this vehicle: 1. Exterior: The 2021 Wuling Hongguang PLUS commercial version still adopts a square and rugged exterior design, with a strong three-dimensional body shape. The front grille features an inverted trapezoidal design, the headlights use a split-type design, and the lower air intake has an arc-shaped design. 2. Powertrain: It is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine or a 1.5T turbocharged engine that meets the China VI emission standards, paired with a 6MT transmission. The combined fuel consumption is 7.3L, with low usage costs. The maximum power outputs are 73kW (99PS) and 108kW (147PS) respectively, and both engines are matched with a 6-speed manual transmission.
Many drivers I know have been using the Wuling Hongguang Plus for ride-hailing for over five years. The government mandates that such commercial vehicles be scrapped after eight years or 600,000 kilometers, but it really depends on your daily mileage. My vehicle has covered 220,000 kilometers in three years, and as long as maintenance is kept up, the engine still runs strong. The key is frequent oil and filter changes, avoiding overloading when carrying goods, and regular checks on the chassis and brake pad wear. Tires wear out quickly—I replace two sets a year. It should last the full eight years, though you might spend more on repairs due to aging parts later on, and emissions inspections in Shenzhen are getting stricter.
