In 2020, Wuling’s annual sales volume surpassed 1.6 million vehicles in total, ranking first among all domestic auto brands.

In October alone, the company sold over 200,000 vehicles, increasing 12% from a year ago, and becoming the most popular Chinese brand. During the first ten months this year, the accumulative sales volume of the company amounted to 1.43 million vehicles, rising 21.2% compared to the previous year.

During its 63 years in business, Wuling faced many challenges. When the chip production crunch hit, Wuling resorted to building its own open to sharing testing and application platform for China-made chips. As of now, the company said it had implemented over 5 million units of domestic chips on its vehicles.

For carbon peak and carbon neutrality, Wuling has been vigorously laying out in the new energy field and built a universal innovative mini pure-electric platform, the GSEV. Building on the GSEV platform, Wuling introduced its Wuling MINIEV model, which was a big hit right after it went on sale.

The MINIEV has led the Chinese new energy vehicle market in monthly sales for 14 consecutive months and was ranked as the most sold model globally in January, April, July and August this year. With over 450,000 vehicles sold to date, the MINIEV has become a phenomenal product.

In addition, the company has sold over 650,000 GSEV-built vehicles so far.  

Moreover, Wuling has also been laying out overseas. In 2020, the company exported 77,376 vehicles and auto parts units to over 40 countries and regions across continents. The company has accumulated RMB3.46 billion in offshore sales so far.
