BAIC Weiwang is not a joint venture car, but a new micro passenger vehicle product launched by BAIC Group. The Weiwang M20 is one of its models. In terms of appearance, the Weiwang M20 incorporates more trendy elements, featuring a crossover-style design language at the front, with a sedan-like face that highlights the product's stable, spacious, and grand style. In terms of power, the Weiwang M20 is equipped with two engines: a 1.5L and a 1.5L VVT, both derived from the Toyota 5A platform. For safety, the Weiwang M20 adopts a monocoque body structure and uses high-strength steel in key structural components, which not only reduces the vehicle's weight and improves durability but also lowers fuel consumption. The interior of the Weiwang M20 focuses on a humanized and fashionable experience, with a dark upper and light lower color scheme, a well-designed dashboard, and a harmonious overall layout that is both aesthetic and stylish. The thoughtful design of the full leather seats further ensures the comfort of both the driver and passengers.

As an automotive enthusiast, I've been closely following the developments of domestic brands. BAIC Weiwang is not a joint venture vehicle; it is a completely independently developed local brand by Beijing Automotive Group, specializing in economical microvans and minivans. Although BAIC Group has joint ventures with Mercedes-Benz and Hyundai, Weiwang is purely domestic with no foreign partners involved. I've personally test-driven Weiwang models and found them to be sturdy, durable, and fuel-efficient, making them particularly suitable for small business transportation or household cargo hauling. Don't be misled by the brand name when purchasing—it's entirely designed and manufactured in China, with affordable prices and simple maintenance. Nowadays, many domestic car brands are rising in the market, and Weiwang represents such a cost-effective and reliable option. There's no need to spend extra money pursuing the allure of joint ventures.

As a seasoned driver with decades of experience, let me share my thoughts on BAIC Weiwang. It's not a joint venture vehicle, but rather BAIC Group's own brand, specializing in commercial vehicles like small trucks. BAIC has joint ventures with foreign companies such as Beijing Benz, but Weiwang is entirely localized. I used Weiwang for transportation in my younger days—the driving experience was average but sufficient, with cheap maintenance and easily available parts. Don't expect high-end technology or foreign pedigree with this car; it's purely a practical workhorse. Domestic vehicles have improved significantly over the years, and Weiwang's strengths lie in low fuel consumption and durability, offering a decent driving experience. For those on a tight budget, it's a good value-for-money option, but don't mistake it for a premium joint venture model—that would be a waste.

As a young car owner, I researched BAIC Weiwang's background before buying. It's not a joint venture car, but a purely domestic brand under BAIC Group, targeting small business owners and entry-level users. BAIC has joint venture models with Mercedes-Benz, but Weiwang is independently developed with no foreign elements. My friend uses it for daily cargo hauling and says it's practical and cost-effective. Before purchasing, it's advisable to understand clearly and not be misled by marketing. Domestic brands like Weiwang are becoming more reliable, with affordability being their biggest selling point.

What is the Difference Between Leaded and Unleaded Gasoline?

The differences between leaded and unleaded gasoline are: 1. Different additives: Leaded gasoline adds tetraethyl lead as an anti-knock additive during the refining process; unleaded gasoline does not add tetraethyl lead during the refining process. 2. Different exhaust emissions: Leaded gasoline causes lead to be emitted into the atmosphere with the vehicle exhaust; unleaded gasoline significantly reduces hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen oxides in the exhaust. Gasoline is a volatile and flammable hydrocarbon mixture liquid distilled or cracked from petroleum. At room temperature, it is a colorless to pale yellow, easily flowing liquid that is difficult to dissolve in water and is flammable. Mixing different grades of oil together can easily lead to incomplete combustion, producing carbon deposits and shortening the engine's lifespan.

What to Do When the Car Mirror is Broken?

If the car mirror is broken, it should be repaired at a 4S shop or auto repair shop. The functions of the small mirror on the car's rearview mirror are as follows: 1. Function one: This small round mirror is an auxiliary rearview device installed on the exterior rearview mirror, allowing the driver to see the side of the car body and the rear wheels. 2. Function two: It can expand the field of vision and reduce blind spots, making it easier for the driver to see the position of the rear wheels when reversing.  Car rearview mirror maintenance tips are as follows: 1. Clean the exterior rearview mirror promptly: If mud or water gets on the rearview mirror, wipe it off as soon as possible with a car cloth. Note that if a very wet cloth is used, watermarks may be left behind, so it's better to use a semi-dry cloth. 2. Use the electric folding function of the exterior rearview mirror cautiously in winter: This is particularly important in winter. If there is dew, rain, or snow at night, the exterior rearview mirror may freeze, and using the electric folding function can easily damage the motor, making the rearview mirror unable to open. Therefore, it's best to turn off the electric folding function in winter. 3. Add a rain shield and small round mirror to the rearview mirror: There may be blind spots when looking at the rearview mirror inside the car, so installing a small round mirror can help reduce blind spots. 4. Turn on the rearview mirror heating function in rainy weather: After turning on the switch, it takes about 10 minutes for the exterior rearview mirror to emit heat. Gradually, the water droplets on the mirror surface will decrease. Generally, the rearview mirror heating should not be turned on for more than 1 hour, and it should be used sparingly to avoid affecting the lifespan of the rearview mirror. 5. Develop the habit of folding the rearview mirror when parking: When parking on the roadside, try to fold the rearview mirror yourself to prevent it from being hit by someone. 6. Do not randomly adjust the mirror of the rearview mirror: Do not randomly adjust the mirror of the rearview mirror, as over time it may cause the mirror to wobble, leading to eye fatigue for the driver.
