The total load capacity of the Baojun 360 is approximately 1820kg, with a curb weight of around 1360kg. The Baojun 360 is a model under SAIC-GM-Wuling, with body dimensions of 4615mm in length, 1735mm in width, and 1660mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2750mm. In terms of exterior design, the Baojun 360 features a new design language, with a hexagonal front grille and eagle-eye headlights. Under the hood, the Baojun 360 is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine across all variants, delivering a maximum power of 82kW and a peak torque of 147Nm, with a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 14.71 seconds.

I've been driving the Baojun 360 to take my family on weekend camping trips. This car has a load capacity of about 500 kilograms, including all passengers and luggage. I've tested it several times, for example, with five adults plus two children and a lot of food and tents, the total weight was around 480 kilograms. The car runs very stably with sufficient power, but don't accelerate too aggressively. If overloaded, the suspension sinks noticeably, the handling feels worse, and it's prone to skidding. So, I always weigh the items in advance, ensuring each person's weight is calculated at 60 kilograms and the luggage doesn't exceed 100 kilograms. It's also important to distribute the weight evenly—don't stuff everything in the trunk; place some lighter items in the front seats as well. Increasing the tire pressure a bit can improve stability. Regular vehicle checks help avoid accidents. These practices give me peace of mind on every trip.

I usually use the Baojun 360 to help neighbors and friends move furniture or tools. Its maximum load capacity is close to 500 kg, and in actual tests, it can carry 40 bags of 10 kg rice, but the suspension will noticeably sag. Overloading makes acceleration slower and braking distance longer. Once, I overloaded by 10% and almost couldn't stop in time, which was very dangerous. I recommend not ignoring the safety tips in the manual, regularly maintaining the suspension and tires, and replacing tires when they are worn out. When loading, it's best to distribute the weight evenly, such as placing heavy items in the front and lighter items in the back. Drive at a steady speed and avoid sudden turns to save fuel and ensure safety.

From a safe driving perspective, the official maximum load capacity of the Baojun 360 is approximately 500 kilograms. Exceeding this value increases risks. For instance, overloading places excessive strain on the braking system, causing delayed brake response and making the vehicle prone to losing control at high speeds. It also accelerates tire wear and raises the risk of blowouts. I’ve experienced the vehicle’s unstable center of gravity when fully loaded, especially when cornering, which causes noticeable tilting. It’s advisable to estimate the combined weight of passengers and cargo before each trip to ensure it doesn’t exceed this limit. Leave some margin—don’t pack the vehicle to its absolute limit—and always check the vehicle’s condition to prevent accidents.

From a perspective, the Baojun 360 performs best with a design load capacity within 500kg. After driving this vehicle for three years, I've noticed that frequent heavy loads accelerate suspension component wear and increase fuel consumption by 10%-15%. During each inspection, check the tire tread patterns and brake pad thickness, and test performance when unloaded. Avoid prolonged overloading and consider splitting loads into multiple trips to protect the vehicle's lifespan.

Last year, I used my Baojun 360 to transport rural specialties once, and the actual measured load capacity reached the upper limit of 500 kg. With four adults and agricultural products totaling 490 kg, the car's chassis didn't sag, but fuel consumption surged by 15% when overloaded. The key is to distribute the weight evenly, avoid stacking too much in the rear seats, drive steadily at low speeds, and shift gears frequently on mountain roads to reduce stress. These details help minimize minor issues and make driving more enjoyable.
