What are the differences between the Onuo S and Wuling?

The top model of the Onuo S is the 1.5L Standard Type VI, while the top model of the Wuling Rongguang V is also the 1.5L Standard Type VI. The differences are as follows: 1. Price: The official price of the Onuo S top model is higher than that of the Wuling Rongguang V top model. 2. Body dimensions: 1. The body dimensions of the Onuo S top model are: length x width x height of 4450mm x 1685mm x 1835mm, with a wheelbase of 2750mm. 2. The body dimensions of the Wuling Rongguang V top model are: length x width x height of 4415mm x 1665mm x 1850mm, with a wheelbase of 2720mm. 3. Overall body: The Onuo S top model is longer than the Wuling Rongguang V top model, and the Onuo S top model has a longer wheelbase than the Wuling Rongguang V top model. 3. In terms of overall configuration: The Onuo S top model is more feature-rich than the Wuling Rongguang V top model.

I've driven the Ouno S to help relatives move, and also used the Wuling Hongguang V for hauling goods. These two may look similar but are quite different. The Ouno S offers a more comfortable ride with its second-row independent seats that can be adjusted, making it less tiring for elderly or children passengers. The interior even features faux leather and silver accents. The Wuling is much more utilitarian, with all-cloth seats that are easier to clean, and a cargo area that can hold more boxes. I once loaded 30 cases of drinks into the Ouno S, but the Wuling could fit 5 more without even struggling to close the door. On dirt roads, the Wuling's higher ground clearance makes it less prone to scraping, while the Ouno S feels more stable on paved roads. A mechanic told me that Wuling's 1.5L engine is more durable for heavy loads, with less belt noise, but the Ouno S's electric power steering feels lighter. It depends on your main use—choose the Ouno S if you need to transport clients while making deliveries, but for pure work purposes, the Wuling is tougher.

Last week I accompanied my buddy to check out cars, and noticed many detailed differences when parking the Ouno S and Wuling Hongguang V side by side. The Ouno S has a chrome-trimmed front grille while the Wuling uses plain black plastic, making it look more utilitarian. Door operation feels noticeably different too - the Ouno S has dampened hinges whereas the Wuling doors slam shut with a loud 'clang'. The key difference is cargo floor height: Wuling's 23cm clearance offers greater loading capacity, while Ouno S's 19cm height reduces back strain during loading. Our real-world fuel tests showed the Wuling consuming 7.2L/100km on empty highway runs versus Ouno S's 6.8L, but the Wuling proved 0.4L/100km more efficient when carrying 1-ton payloads. The Wuling has greater aftermarket potential with abundant rack accessories available, though its dashboard-mounted cigarette lighter makes dashcam wiring more complicated compared to the Ouno S.

Running a small supermarket for three years, I've used both the Ouno S and Wuling extensively. When transporting beer and beverages, I noticed the Ouno S's rear door is 1.2 meters wide, while the Wuling's 1.3-meter width allows standard shelves to be placed sideways. The suspension difference is particularly noticeable: the Ouno S goes over speed bumps with just two 'thud' sounds, whereas the Wuling's leaf springs make mineral water bottles bounce around. The Wuling's air conditioning cools faster, but its fan sounds like a tractor. Once during a heavy rain delivery, the Wuling's wipers worked fine on medium speed, but the Ouno S needed maximum speed. Maintenance costs are a factor too – replacing a half-shaft on the Wuling costs 460 yuan, while the Ouno S is over 60 yuan more expensive. Now I mostly use the Wuling for deliveries, reserving the Ouno S for weekend family outings since its rear seats have ISOFIX mounts for child seats.

For those who have disassembled the engine bays of these two cars, let's discuss. Although both are 1.5L naturally aspirated engines, the Wuling LAR engine has an iron valve cover, while the Onuo S JL473QG uses an aluminum alloy one. During repairs, it was noticed that Wuling's wiring harnesses are all wrapped in corrugated tubes, preventing wear and tear when hauling heavy loads. The gear ratios of the transmissions differ; Wuling's first gear is more powerful, making it effortless to climb slopes on construction sites, while the Onuo S's third gear provides smoother acceleration. The Wuling chassis has two additional longitudinal beams, which protected the cargo box in a recent rear-end collision. The fuel tank materials also vary—the Onuo S uses engineering plastic, whereas Wuling employs an iron fuel tank with an anti-rust coating. Although both tires are 185 in specification, Wuling's tires have thicker sidewalls, preventing blowouts even on rough roads during the New Year. For maintenance, it's recommended to change Wuling's gear oil every 5,000 kilometers, especially for those frequently hauling heavy loads.
