The Fun Of Driving With Wuling BinguoEV, Stylish Design And Tough Performance

JAKARTA The BinguoEV is the second electric car offering from Wuling Motors for the Indonesian automotive market which was officially launched in November 2023.

According to Wuling, Binguo itself is absorbed from two words in Mandarin, namely, bin with the meaning'many' and guo which means results'. In addition, Binguo's pronunciation is taken from the word in English, bingo which is an expression of happiness and satisfaction for the many successes achieved.

BinguoEV offers a combination of retro stylish designs, qualified specifications, and quite tough driving sensations. Available in 3 color choices: Galaxy Blue, Milk Tea, Mousse Green.

The retro design can be seen from every curve from the front and back, the front and back LED lights with futuristic X symbols give a modern and sporty impression. As for the body design, Wuling said the designers were inspired by the flowing water or running water movement.

Its tiny shape with a length of 3,950 mm, a width of 1,708 mm, and a height of 1,580 mm makes it easy to control on crowded urban roads.

Even though it's tiny, BinguoEV has a spacious and comfortable interior. His cabin is able to accommodate up to 5 people with quite relieved legs and head spaces. His synthetic skin jockey gives a premium touch and is comfortable while sitting.
