Wuling Xingchen is a joint venture vehicle. The Wuling Xingchen model is produced by SAIC-GM-Wuling Automobile Co., Ltd., which is a joint venture company jointly established by SAIC Motor Corporation Limited, General Motors Company, and Guangxi Automobile Group Co., Ltd. Wuling Xingchen body dimensions: Length 4594 mm, width 1820 mm, height 1740 mm, wheelbase 2750 mm. The vehicle is a five-door, five-seater SUV model with a fuel tank capacity of 52 liters. Wuling Xingchen powertrain: Equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a CVT continuously variable transmission.
I've been driving for many years, and my family just switched to the Wuling Xingchen. It feels like a true domestic car for ordinary people like us. Although Wuling has some joint venture elements behind it—such as its production collaboration with SAIC Group and General Motors—the entire car, from design to assembly, is completed at the Liuzhou factory. Priced at just 60,000 to 70,000 yuan, it even comes with smart connectivity features, perfectly tailored to local needs. My friends who bought it were all drawn to its low fuel consumption and high cost-effectiveness, not to mention the affordable maintenance. It’s such a worry-free choice for daily commuting. At the end of the day, Chinese brands are increasingly proving their worth through real capability. The popularity of models like the Xingchen is a clear sign of the progress made by domestic automakers.
