One of the dealers privately brought the Xingchi crossover from the Chinese brand Wuling, founded by SAIC and General Motors. As Rossiyskaya Gazeta noted, the car in yellow body color is offered by one of the car dealers in Irkutsk. For now it is available in a single copy. The crossover was released in 2023 and has no mileage, but they are asking 1,999,999 rubles for it.
In terms of dimensions, the Wuling Xingchi is similar to the outgoing Skoda Karoq and Kia Seltos. It received a two-tone body and a palette of bright shades, which, according to the manufacturer, should attract young people. From bumper to bumper, the crossover is 4365 millimeters, width and height are 1750 and 1640 millimeters, respectively.

Inside there is a “floating” display of a 10.25-inch diagonal multimedia system and a digital instrument panel. The interior, apparently, is trimmed with eco-leather. There is climate control, an electromechanical parking brake, an engine start button, a sunroof, a rear view camera and a power driver’s seat.
The Xingchi is powered by a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine producing 95 horsepower, paired with a CVT. The car is based on a front-wheel drive platform with a semi-independent rear suspension.
Launching in China in 2022, the Xingchi is the fourth model released as part of the strategy to revitalize the Wuling brand. It is produced by the SAIC-GM-Wuling joint venture.
