The Wuling Binguo (Chinese: 五菱缤果), commonly mentioned in English sources as the Wuling Bingo, is a battery electric subcompact car (A0-class in China)[4] manufactured by SAIC-GM-Wuling (SGMW) since 2023 under the Wuling brand.[5]

Overview

Following the success of the Hongguang Mini EV electric microcar, Wuling expanded its range of city cars with a conventional 5-door hatchback called the Binguo.

The Binguo was created for the Chinese domestic market, as a response to other urban electric models.[6] It features retro-inspired styling, distinguished by a round body with oval headlights and rear lamps. The body comes in four colours, three with a contrasting painted roof: white and black, green and black or pink and white, as well as fully black.[7]

The passenger compartment features a similar round-oval design. The dashboard features two displays that function respectively as clocks and the central touch screen of the multimedia system.[8]

Overseas markets

Indonesia

The Binguo was introduced in Indonesia on 16 November 2023 as the first country to market the Binguo outside China, with sales later commenced on 15 December 2023. In Indonesia, it is available with two variants, powered by 31.9 kWh (333 km) and 37.9 kWh (410 km) battery packs.[9][10]

In July 2025, the Binguo was updated in Indonesia with new exterior colours and new features. Two variants are available: Lite and Pro, powered only by the 31.9 kWh (333 km) battery pack.[11]

Specifications

The Binguo is available with two powertrain variants. The basic version develops 30 kW (40 hp; 41 PS), while the more powerful 50 kW (67 hp; 68 PS), although the top speed of both is limited to 100 km/h (62 mph). The manufacturer has also provided two available sets of batteries: the smaller 17.3 kWh allows the user to drive up to 203 km (126 mi) on a single charge according to the NEDC cycle, and the larger 31.9 kWh up to 333 km (207 mi).[12]

In September 2023, Wuling released the 410 km (255 mi) range version of the Binguo, powered by a 37.9 kWh LFP battery.[13]
