The Wuling Air ev boldly goes where no mircocar has gone before!
is getting a new brother, the upmarket Wuling Air ev. [Yes, the “ev” part is lower case for this car. Who knows why?] The Wuling Mini EV has been extremely popular in China, outselling every other electric car in the home market. Most of that, of course, is due to the low price. The base model can be purchased for a little more than $5,000.
Granted, the Wuling Mini EV is basic transportation, but the company, which is a joint venture between SAIC, General Motors, and Wuling, now offers the Wuling Air, which can be had in either a short wheelbase version for 2 passengers or a long wheelbase version with room for 4. In this case, “long wheelbase” is a bit of a misnomer. The space between the front and rear wheels is actually 2 meters .
There is no word whether Lucid is concerned about Wuling stealing the Air model name. There’s an odd sort of serendipity to it being applied to both one of the most expensive and one of the least expensive EVs in the world. The Wuling Air ev is expected to go on sale in the third quarter of this year.
There are no plans to export it that we know of. Still, if the world is waiting for inexpensive electric cars, this could be the answer. It would make a really good second car for certain use cases. As the price of standard electric cars climbs into the stratosphere, the Wuling Air ev will look attractive to more people who want to drive on electrons but don’t want to mortgage the house to own one.
