Is the plug for Wuling Hongguang Mini 16A or 10A?
2 Answers
Wuling Hongguang Mini uses a 16A plug. The charging port is located behind the front logo cover - simply open the emblem cover to access it. It can be charged using a standard household 220V/16A plug, and is also compatible with charging stations. Below is additional information: 1. Brand Introduction: Wuling Hongguang Mini is a pure electric vehicle under SAIC-GM-Wuling's Hongguang brand. This two-door microcar features a boxy, compact body design with predominantly straight lines and right angles, while its dashboard design echoes the exterior styling. 2. Powertrain: All models are equipped with an electric motor delivering maximum power of 20kW (27.2Ps) and peak torque of 85Nm. The Wuling Hongguang Mini offers two battery capacity options: 144Ah and 96Ah, with a battery system rated voltage of 96V. This translates to rated battery capacities of 13.82kWh and 9.2kWh respectively.
I previously helped my neighbor fix a charging issue with their Wuling Hongguang Mini. The standard plug it comes with is 16 amps, which is quite suitable for home sockets. Why not use 10 amps? A 16-amp plug charges faster—my own car is almost fully charged overnight, and I've never encountered any tripping issues. However, it's important to check your home's wiring. Older houses might need to upgrade their sockets—don't try to save money by using a 10-amp socket for charging, as it could lead to overheating or slow charging. When charging, I always do a quick check to ensure the port is clean, as dust can affect charging efficiency. In short, using the right plug saves time and hassle—don’t swap it out randomly, as the factory design is well thought out.
