With 395,451 new vehicles registered in 2021, according to the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA), the Wuling Hongguang Mini EV is the best-selling electric vehicle in the domestic market. Now, the car has a special version to mark its success and meet customer needs in 2022.
Mini GameBoy has 4 separate versions, including Hurrican Phantom, Jungle Traveler, Star Rover and Party Sweetheart. Each version has slightly different features in the exterior, rims and interior are also separate with accents of the same exterior color, upholstery material combined with leather-felt and youthful colors.
Compared to the standard Mini EV, the special version has new headlights with LED daytime running lights and LED strips connecting the two sides. The front end is also slightly tweaked.
The overall size of the Mini GameBoy has also changed compared to the standard version. The length is slightly more than 80 mm (2,997 mm), while the height is 17 mm lower (1,604 mm). The most important upgrade is the more powerful electric motor, with 41 hp (30 kW) instead of just 27 hp (20 kW) in the base model.
According to Chinese media, the Mini GameBoy has a 26.5 kWh battery pack that helps the car run 280 km per charge - a significant increase compared to the range of only 120-170 km of the standard version.
In the standard version, Hongguang Mini EV has a maximum speed of 100 km / h. At this time, this is still the cheapest electric car model in China with a starting price of 4,200 USD. The most advanced versions with enough equipment cost about 5,700 USD.
