The penetration rate of new energy commercial vehicles is rising rapidly, but an awkward reality has always existed: pure electric light passenger vans are "fuel-saving machines" in the city, but once they hit the highway, they become an "electric burden." Logistics bosses have never faced a choice between "gas or electric," but rather a dilemma between "saving money but not going far" and "going far but burning money."

Wuling's answer is the Yangguang Pro Range-Extended Edition, priced at a flat 104,800 yuan.

This vehicle doesn't talk to you about autonomous driving, nor does it show off a smart cockpit. Its logic is extremely simple: pack the range of a fuel vehicle and the cost of an electric vehicle into a 9-cubic-meter-class large light passenger van at the same time.

850 km combined range, eliminating "orders you dare not take"

What is the biggest pain point of intercity freight? It's not that the vehicle is bad—it's that the range can't hold up and charging isn't worth the wait.

The Wuling Yangguang Pro Range-Extended Edition is equipped with the Lingxi range-extended hybrid system, featuring the industry's first 1.5T direct-injection range-extender engine, with a thermal efficiency of 39.3% and a maximum power of 105 kW. Paired with a 31.9 kW·h Shenlian battery and a 55L large fuel tank, it offers a CLTC pure electric range of 150 km and a combined range of 850 km with a full tank and full charge.

The meaning of this number is very direct. From Zhengzhou to Luoyang, from Shanghai to Hefei, it's a direct trip without needing to pull into a service area to find a charging station, and without worrying about holiday highway charging queues delaying deliveries. In range-extended mode, the engine does not directly drive the wheels; it always operates in its high-efficiency range to generate electricity, and the electric motor drives the vehicle. This means that regardless of the battery level, power output always remains consistent, avoiding the awkward situation of "a dragon when charged, a worm when depleted."

26 cents per kilometer, calculating a clear economic account

For urban distribution practitioners, saving money is earning money. The most solid work Wuling has done on this vehicle is to calculate the account to the extreme.

In pure electric mode, the cost per kilometer is as low as 0.1 yuan; in range-extended mode, it is about 0.5 yuan per kilometer. Based on an average daily driving distance of 200 km and 28 working days per month, the combined cost per kilometer is only 0.26 yuan, the daily cost is 52.6 yuan, and the monthly total cost is about 1,472 yuan. Compared with fuel light passenger vans of the same class, it can save 1,887 yuan per month, amounting to more than 20,000 yuan saved in a year.

This is not even counting the road access dividend. More than 270 cities at prefecture level and above nationwide no longer restrict new energy light passenger vans, accounting for 80.5%. Fuel light passenger vans are restricted from entering the city, while the Yangguang Pro Range-Extended Edition wears a green plate, is unrestricted in urban areas, and can travel during peak hours, expanding the order-taking radius from the city to intercity routes.

In addition, the new vehicle comes standard with 2C fast charging, taking only 15 minutes to go from SOC 30% to 80%. In the time it takes to eat lunch, the pure electric range can be replenished, and in the afternoon you can continue running in the city using the cheapest "0.1 yuan mode," seamlessly connecting the operating rhythm.

9-cubic-meter large space, born specifically for hauling cargo

The range-extended system does not encroach on cargo box space, offering a 9-cubic-meter-class square and spacious interior, so large and heavy items can be loaded at will. The 2,170 mm vehicle height precisely adapts to 2.2-meter height-restricted underground garages in urban areas, allowing unimpeded entry and exit at wholesale markets and residential underground garages.

With a rear-mounted rear-drive layout, the motor has a power of 110 kW and a peak torque of 280 N·m, making full-load hill climbing calm and powerful. Large-size tires have a single-tire load capacity of 1,285 kg, the rear suspension uses 5-leaf high-load-capacity leaf springs, and high-strength steel accounts for 68.95% of the high-strength cage-type body frame. It remains stable and reliable when hauling heavy cargo over the long term—it is not a "showpiece," but a real production tool.

In one sentence:

It is not some disruptive technological revolution, but it is currently the option in the urban distribution logistics market that best balances "saving money, being able to run, and being able to carry." Cumulative sales of the Wuling Yangguang family have reached nearly 170,000 units, ranking first in new energy light passenger van sales for 29 consecutive months. The arrival of the Yangguang Pro Range-Extended Edition completes the Yangguang family's full-scenario coverage from urban areas to intercity routes—the pure electric version guards the city, the range-extended version attacks the city, dual-wheel drive, specifically curing all kinds of "dare not run."
