What is the displacement of Wuling Hongguang?
2 Answers
Wuling Hongguang has a displacement of 1.5L. Methods to check car displacement: In the vehicle model section of the driving license, the second and third digits from left to right represent the vehicle's displacement. Additionally, you can find the car's displacement through the vehicle markings on the car body, but nowadays many people might replace them with fake logos, so this method may not be accurate. Relationship between car class and displacement: In China, car classes are categorized based on displacement size. Mini cars have a displacement ≤1.0L; compact cars have a displacement between 1.0L and 1.6L; midsize cars have a displacement between 1.6L and 2.5L; executive cars have a displacement between 2.5L and 4.0L; and luxury cars have a displacement >4.0L.
I drove my previous Wuling Hongguang for over five years, and the exact displacement depends on the model year. The older models mostly came with 1.2L and 1.4L naturally aspirated engines. The 2016 model I drove had a 1.5L engine, which was noticeably more powerful for hauling goods and climbing slopes. The current new models mainly feature 1.5L engines, available in low and high power versions. The low-power 74kW version is fuel-efficient and sufficient for passenger use, while the high-power 92kW version is more stable for heavy loads. As for the PLUS model released late last year, it’s equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine. Although the displacement remains 1.5 liters, the horsepower jumps to 147, making it capable of hauling two tons on the highway without any issues. When choosing a car, check the nameplate near the windshield—it clearly states the engine model and displacement.
