The frame number of the Wuling Hongguang S is located under the front passenger seat, which can be seen after lifting the seat. The Wuling Hongguang S is a microvan with dimensions of 4390mm in length, 1660mm in width, and 1750mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2720mm. The Wuling Hongguang S is equipped with two engines: a 1.2L naturally aspirated engine and a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine. The 1.2L engine delivers a maximum power of 56kW and a maximum torque of 110Nm, while the 1.5L engine produces a maximum power of 73kW and a maximum torque of 140Nm.
Last time I helped a friend inspect a car, I did some research. The VIN of the Wuling Hongguang S is mainly located on the far left side of the dashboard near the windshield, visible from outside the car as a series of stamped numbers at the bottom of the windshield. Lift the front passenger door, and you'll find the same 17-digit code engraved on the black nameplate by the door sill—just crouch down to see it. If both spots are unreadable, don't panic. Open the hood and check the firewall area near the back of the battery; there's usually another set of stamped numbers on the frame. Just wipe off any grease with a cloth for clarity. However, when making a rubbing, prioritize the one below the windshield—it's least likely to be corroded by mud or water from the chassis.
I've been hauling goods with my Wuling Hongguang S for three years and can find it with my eyes closed. The most obvious spot is the lower right corner of the windshield—look through the glass at the row of reflective characters where the dashboard meets the hood. If it's unclear after rain, open the right front door and check the stainless steel plate below the B-pillar on the door frame. Last time, the guy at the DMV inspection taught me a trick: there's a backup VIN written with a paint marker on the firewall inside the engine bay, right behind the battery cover. Crouch down and shine your phone's flashlight—it's very visible. Remember to clean the stamped groove when taking an imprint, or it'll come out full of dots.
