What is the reason for the discontinuation of Wuling Rongguang V?
2 Answers
Wuling Rongguang V has not been discontinued and is still selling well. More details are as follows: 1. Wuling Rongguang V maintains its original exterior and interior design, with only some configuration adjustments. The new model not only increases the maximum load capacity but also comes with features such as dual evaporator air conditioning, automatic door locking while driving, and door ajar alarm. 2. In terms of body dimensions, the Wuling Rongguang V measures 4415/1685/1850mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2720mm. 3. For the powertrain, Wuling Rongguang V offers 1.2L and 1.5L naturally aspirated engines paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
I remember the discontinuation of Wuling Rongguang V was mainly due to the impact of new emission regulations. Now that the country is implementing the China VI standard, as an older model, the Rongguang V's design couldn’t meet the requirements, and the cost of direct modification was too high, so the manufacturer simply stopped production. It’s similar to my driving experience—when an old car reaches the end of its lifespan, upgrades become difficult, which is quite normal. The company’s strategy has also shifted; Wuling is now focusing on new electric or SUV alternatives that are more profitable, as the market changes rapidly with users now preferring new energy vehicles. The discontinuation is quite a pity for owners, given its durability and reliability, but on the other hand, it helps promote environmental protection and industrial progress. I suggest that existing owners maintain their remaining vehicles promptly to avoid major repairs down the line.
