SAIC-GM-Wuling Xingguang S EV

It has a large interior space and comes with assisted driving, making it a decent choice for family use. The only drawback is that the brand might not be as prestigious. Some people who care about social status might find it a bit hard to get used to. When driving, the large space provides a comfortable experience, and the overall driving feel is also quite good. The intelligent driving assistance system is rather useless in the city. I haven't tried the lane - keeping and cruise - control functions on the highway yet. Another issue I have to mention is that although the advertised range is 510 kilometers, in reality, it's quite rare for the car to achieve over 80% of that range, whether in the city or on the highway. The car's infotainment system doesn't support third - party apps, but for someone like me who prefers simplicity, it suits my personality. The flagship version has an electric tailgate and double - layer soundproof glass, which generally meets the needs of a family car. Also, the fact that the daytime running lights can't be turned off is really annoying. Finally, the car could be better in some details. But considering the price, it's okay.

Car purchase experience:
I used to have a sedan. As my kids grew up and we wanted to take long - distance trips, the sedan felt a bit cramped. So, I started looking for an SUV. It took me over four months to make a decision. The Xingguang S is the one with the best cost - performance ratio among cars priced under 130,000 yuan. It's a well - rounded car with lots of good features. In my opinion, the best things about it are its good - looking appearance and large practical space. I test - drove it at the dealership several times, and its handling and noise insulation met my requirements. So, I decided to buy it and sold my 10 - year - old sedan.

Driving experience on long - distance trips:
I've driven it for 5,500 kilometers so far, and I'm planning to go for the first maintenance these days. The only long - distance trip I've taken was a self - driving journey to Guangzhou. I charged the car twice on the way. Considering the range, it's about 70% of the claimed range because I drove at a constant 120 km/h on the highway using the adaptive cruise control. It was really hassle - free as I didn't have to keep steering the wheel all the time, just hold it. This shows that the L2 driver assistance system of this car meets my travel needs.
The fast - charging function of the Xingguang S really lives up to its reputation. It can outperform Tesla at the charging stations in service areas. Usually, the charging power on a single charging pile can reach 95 kW. When charging alongside a Tesla on the same pile, my car's power was 57 kW while the Tesla's was 49 kW. There was also a Nezha sharing a charging pile with another Tesla nearby. Its charging power was about 32 kW, and the Tesla's was 70 kW. The owner of the Nezha came over to compare and was really shocked. He was very disappointed with the charging performance of his Nezha. This shows that the 2C fast - charging is really practical in highway charging scenarios.

Most satisfied aspects:
For someone like me who doesn't travel long distances often, buying an all - electric car was definitely the right choice. There's no range anxiety, and I only need to charge it once every ten days. The cost of using the car is extremely low. I have a charging pile at home, and I can charge the car for free at work, so I mostly charge it at the workplace.

Highlights of the vehicle:
It is equipped with a large screen, external power discharge function, and seat ventilation and heating. These functions are really practical and give you the feeling that you get what you need!

Dissatisfied aspects:
The car's infotainment system is okay, but the response speed isn't particularly fast.

[Car Purchase Experience]
I compared the Galaxy E5 (which requires waiting for the car), so I didn't choose to test drive the ic03. The prices were similar. The boxy appearance didn't match my aesthetic as well as the Xingguang S. The price of the low - end PLUS version was also similar, but it didn't have a 360 - degree camera, and the space seemed too small, so I didn't choose it either.
[Power Performance]
Since this is my first new - energy vehicle, I'm quite satisfied with its power. When overtaking on mountain roads, starting, or climbing hills, it has quicker power than my previous fuel - powered car.
[Comfort]
Thanks to its extremely large space, the riding experience in both the front and rear rows is good. The seats are very comfortable. When the rear seats are folded down, taking a lunch break on an air mattress is similar to the experience of sleeping in a large double bed.
[Charging Time]
Since I've installed a charging pile at home, I charge the car every night when I get back, and it's fully charged by morning. The electricity fee at night is also very cheap. Even for temporary charging, fast charging outside is also very quick. A power of 80 - 90kW only takes about twenty minutes.
[Spatial Performance]
The spatial performance is what I'm most satisfied with. The rear - seat space is amazing. When taking my family in the back row, they can move around freely and it's not crowded at all. Kids can play freely in the back row (when the vehicle is stationary). When watching cartoons, kids can dance around in the back row without their movements being restricted by the space. The trunk space is also sufficient to meet normal needs.
[Intelligent Performance]
The absence of a sentry mode is a pain point for many car owners. I'm not very satisfied with the closed - system car infotainment system. It only has a few apps: iQiyi, QQ Music, Himalaya, and Kuwo Music. There's no Bilibili or NetEase Cloud Music, which I like. As for intelligent driving, since I have the navigation version, it doesn't have functions in the area of assisted driving. You can check posts from other flagship - version owners.
[Least Satisfied]
There's no sentry mode, and the car infotainment system needs improvement.
[Most Satisfied]
I'm satisfied with the space and price. It has a high cost - performance ratio in the 100,000 - yuan range. Wuling builds what the people need.
[Overall Impression]
As an outdoor worker, I need to drive about 200 kilometers every day, so I use the car very frequently. I spent 200 yuan on an external power outlet plug, so I can easily take my work - use laptop and induction cooker with me. As of today, I've driven 53,000 kilometers. I think this 100,000 - yuan - range family SUV is quite suitable. After all, you can't ask for too much at this price. I'm quite satisfied with its performance, and it's very suitable for me. I can drive about 100,000 kilometers a year. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'll answer truthfully and objectively, leaving nothing unsaid.
