Why is the Wuling Hongguang called the 'God Car'?

[OEliana]

There are four reasons why the Wuling Hongguang is called the 'God Car': 1. Sales Myth: Forbes stated that the Wuling Hongguang saved General Motors. While GM's best-selling vehicle in the U.S. is the pickup truck, its sales still fall short of one-tenth of the Hongguang's. The unassuming Wuling is the best-selling car in China to date, with almost one car sold every six seconds. 2. Excellent Driving Experience: It features a rear-wheel-drive and front-engine layout similar to the Cadillac ATS and BMW 3 Series, offering such impressive handling that it even has the potential for drifting and tail slides. 3. Powerful Engine: The Wuling 1.5L inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine delivers an impressive 112 horsepower and 147 N·m of torque. Paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, just a slight increase in RPM results in explosive power response and acceleration. 4. Affordable Price: Forbes noted that the Wuling Hongguang is the best-selling car in human history. Whether in rural or urban areas, the Wuling Hongguang is ubiquitous. Chinese people use it to support their small businesses, transport goods, and even carry refrigerators, helping generate tens of billions of yuan in wealth annually.
