Why Was the Baojun 310 Discontinued?

[McDylan]

Baojun 310 was discontinued mainly due to low market sales, leading the manufacturer to cease production and eventually withdraw it from the market entirely. Below is relevant information: 1. Baojun 310: The Baojun 310 is a compact hatchback launched by SAIC-GM-Wuling on September 8, 2016. It was equipped with a 1.2L engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, resulting in a relatively weak overall performance at startup. In 2017, an automatic variant was introduced, featuring a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine and a 5-speed automatic transmission. 2. Reasons for Declining Sales: Part of the reason was the incomplete safety features of the Baojun 310, but the larger factor was the emergence of numerous entry-level compact SUVs in the market around that time. These SUVs were priced similarly to compact cars but offered better space and power performance, gradually attracting more consumers to choose compact SUVs instead.
