The Wuling NanoEV offers three versions: Joy Edition, Love Edition, and Disney Zootopia Limited Edition, with official suggested prices of RMB 49,800, RMB 54,800, and RMB 59,800 respectively. Its dimensions are 2,497mm in length, 1,526mm in width, and 1,616mm in height, with a wheelbase of 1,600mm, and a curb weight of 860kg. Compared to the popular Wuling Hongguang MINIEV, the NanoEV’s body size is smaller at 2,920mm in length, 1,493mm in width, and 1,621mm in height, with a wheelbase of 1,940mm, despite its higher price.
According to the official website, the NanoEV has a range of 305 km, but it does not specify the driving conditions under which this is achieved. The vehicle is equipped with a 24 kW permanent magnet synchronous motor, with an optional 29 kW motor available for the Joy Edition. The drive mode is front-wheel drive, with a maximum torque of 85 Nm and a top speed of 100 km/h. In comparison, the maximum output power of the Hongguang MINIEV’s motor is only 20 kW, and the NEDC pure electric range of the longest range version is only 170 km.
The battery is equipped with a 28 kW.h lithium iron phosphate battery, with a charging time of 13.5 hours, which can be shortened to 4.5 hours with an optional 6.6 kW AC high-power charger. The previous criticism of the MINIEV’s range has been addressed in the NanoEV, which has greatly improved its practicality.
The interior design of the NanoEV is very similar to that of the MINIEV, with no central control screen. Compared to Wuling’s popular MINIEV, the NanoEV is priced higher, and it is found that the NanoEV is actually a rebadged version of the Baojun E200, with very similar exterior and interior designs.Compared with the play version, the love version has added functions such as keyless entry, one-key start, electronic handbrake, ESC vehicle electronic stability system, reversing image, and electrically adjustable rearview mirror, with a price difference of only 5,000 yuan, which is quite fair. Now, if you place an order, you can enjoy a 4,888 yuan gift with only 9.9 yuan, 24 periods interest-free, and three years of free roadside assistance. After riding on the wave of the popularity of the Hongguang MINIEV, can the Wuling NanoEV “continue its glory”?
