The 1.2L model of the Wuling Hongguang S can reach a top speed of 120 km/h, while the 1.5L model can achieve a maximum speed of 155 km/h. Below are the detailed specifications of the Wuling Hongguang S: Safety Features: Equipped with ABS+EBD, dual airbags, force-limiting seat belts, LED high-mounted brake lights, rear parking sensors, rear window defrosting, rear wipers, child locks on the middle doors, automatic locking function, headlight/door open warning system, and a remote key with electronic anti-theft system and automatic car-finding function. Powertrain: The Wuling Hongguang S uses a 1.5L DVVT engine with a maximum power output of 82kW at 5800 rpm and a peak torque of 146.5 N.m between 3600-4000 rpm. Another 1.2L engine offers a maximum power of 63kW at 6000 rpm and a peak torque of 108 N.m between 4400-4800 rpm. All models come with a 5-speed manual transmission.
I've been driving for twenty years, and the Wuling Hongguang is the car I've driven the most. The actual tested top speed can reach around 160 km/h, but never drive that fast because the car feels light and unstable at high speeds, making it unsafe on highways. Once I tried driving at 130 km/h, the wind noise was terrifying, and the braking distance increased by over ten meters—I almost had an accident. Now I only drive at 70-80 km/h in the city, and it's especially practical on bumpy rural roads, making it worry-free for hauling goods or carrying passengers. The fuel consumption is also low—a full tank can last 400-500 km, saving money and being eco-friendly. Wuling cars are tough and durable, with few major issues over the years, but they're not suited for racing. Remember, safety comes first—speed isn’t the priority; driving steadily is what matters most.
