2 Answers
The curb weight of the Baojun 730 is 1410kg, and the maximum design total weight is 1900kg. Here is some extended information about the Baojun 730: 1. The Baojun 730 is a family MPV product under the SAIC-GM-Wuling Baojun brand. 2. The vehicle features a seven-seat layout, with dimensions of 4685mm in length, 1785mm in width, and 1735mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2750mm. The maximum cargo space can reach 1680L. 3. The Baojun 730 is equipped with two types of engines: a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine. These engines are paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.
I've driven the Baojun 730, which weighs around 1,380 kg for the manual transmission version. The automatic version is slightly heavier at 1,430 kg due to the different transmission. I think the weight is just right—it feels stable when driving, especially when changing lanes on the highway; the body doesn't feel floaty. For a family MPV, it's very safe when carrying six or seven people. The heavier weight does mean higher fuel consumption, though—around 8 liters per 100 km in the city. It's not the most fuel-efficient, but it's acceptable given the car's size and practicality. If you're buying used or new, I recommend checking the configuration manual to confirm the weight, as different model years with reduced or added features can affect it. In short, weight impacts both safety and fuel efficiency, so it's an important factor to consider when choosing a car.
