Wuling has officially unveiled the first images of its upcoming Xingguang M, a mid-to-large MPV designed to challenge established players in the segment. With a length exceeding 5 meters and a wheelbase of 3,000 mm, the vehicle is positioned as a spacious, premium-focused family hauler, often described as Wuling’s take on the Buick GL8.

The Xingguang M adopts the brand’s latest design language, featuring headlights consistent with the Xingguang L model. The front fascia is dominated by a massive grille integrated with active air intake shutters and horizontal chrome accents, lending the vehicle a sophisticated and layered appearance. Practicality is a key focus, with an electric sliding door featured on the passenger side, while the driver-side sliding door is available as an optional configuration.

Measuring 5,150 mm in length, 1,920 mm in width, and 1,820 mm in height, the MPV sits on 18-inch wheels, with the official images showcasing a premium “disc-style” rim design. At the rear, the vehicle features a clean, minimalist aesthetic highlighted by a full-width taillight assembly. Buyers will have the option to choose between a panoramic sunroof or a solid roof configuration.

Under the hood, the Xingguang M utilizes a 1.5T plug-in hybrid system. The internal combustion engine delivers a maximum power of 105 kW, paired with a 37.9 kWh battery pack that provides a pure electric range of 170 km.

While official pricing has yet to be confirmed, industry analysts expect the Xingguang M to be positioned in the 200,000 RMB (approx. $28,000 USD) price bracket. Final specifications and pricing will be announced at the official launch event.
