What is the weight of the Wuling Rongguang in kilograms?
2 Answers
According to the curb weight of domestic microvans, it generally ranges between 980 kg to 1,250 kg. As a medium-large microvan, the Wuling should have a self-weight between 1,000 kg to 1,150 kg. Here are some introductions about the Wuling Rongguang: 1. The 'Wuling Rongguang' is the first domestic model developed independently using advanced domestic technology with the support of the Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center, a joint venture between General Motors and SAIC Group. 2. Without airbag installation, the 'Wuling Rongguang' became one of China's first vehicle models to pass the 'frontal collision occupant protection' test certification. It underwent comprehensive vehicle testing and verification according to the world's most advanced automotive technical specifications, fully demonstrating its advanced technology.
The Wuling Zhiguang typically weighs around 2,100 jin (approximately 1,050 kg) as its curb weight when empty. I've been driving this model for several years, and its weight design makes the body quite sturdy, making it very suitable for hauling goods in both rural and urban areas. However, the weight does affect power output; for instance, the engine has to work a bit harder during acceleration, and fuel consumption naturally increases by about 1 liter per 100 kilometers in daily driving. On the plus side, if the weight is evenly distributed, it provides better stability at high speeds, reducing the likelihood of drifting. During maintenance, don’t forget to check the suspension system, as overloading can accelerate wear and tear—safety first. Overall, it’s a practical mini-van, and its moderate weight makes it quite popular in urban-rural fringe areas.
