Judging from previous data, Wuling Starlight’s pre-sale orders exceeded 5,000 units in one week, which to a certain extent shows that this car is still very popular among consumers. However, Qin PLUS DM-i Champion Edition and Sylphy are both the sales champions in their respective market segments. It is not easy for Wuling Starlight to compete with these opponents, but it is not without its strength. Wuling Starlight has obvious advantages in terms of appearance, body size, interior technology, power performance, and battery life, and I believe it will impress consumers.
