On August 11, Wuling announced that its 1.7 millionth Hongguang Mini EV officially rolled off the production line in China. The official also claimed one car is sold every two minutes and has been the sales champion in the A00-class small, affordable pure electric vehicle segment for 60 consecutive months in China.

So far, the Wuling Hongguang Mini EV has accumulated a total of 1,986 patents.

Wuling also collaborated with brands and games such as Yili Ranch, Capybara Go!, Eggy Party, and Boonie Bears.

In mid-July, Wuling rolled out replacement subsidies starting at 36,800 yuan (5,120 USD), and the national and local subsidies can be added up to 20,000 yuan (2,780 USD).

Under fast charging mode, the charging time from 30% to 80% is 35 minutes, while slow charging from 20% to 100% takes 4.8 hours.
