In 2020, SAIC-GM Wuling launched the Wuling Hongguang MINIEV, which was initially mocked as an elderly mobility vehicle. However, its sales performance proved the huge potential of the micro pure electric vehicle market. Many companies followed suit and introduced pure electric micro cars, including FAW Besturn Xiaoma. Designed to meet daily urban commuting needs, FAW Besturn Xiaoma aims to provide a trendy and enjoyable travel experience for young consumers. So, how should you choose a new car? This issue of “Car Buying Guide” will answer your questions.
In 2024, FAW Benteng Xiaoma launched 3 models, priced from 26,900 to 31,900 yuan (4390$). The official also introduced 6 car purchase benefits for the new car launch, including tax-free care, interest-free care, renewal care, and protection care.
Unlike many cars of the same level that adopt a square box design, the Pegasus Pony pursues a more stylish appearance. The new car is designed with a round and full style, catering to the aesthetic preferences of female users. The cute electric eye headlights are the finishing touch on the front face, with a high recognition value when lit up by LED daytime running lights. The front and rear bumpers, side door color accents, and key of the vehicle are also designed with capsules to create a dynamic and adorable effect.
In terms of wheels, the new car only offers one type of steel wheels. As for tires, the new car only offers one size, 145/70 R12, across the range.
In terms of body color, the new car offers six options: sky blue, cheese white, camellia green, peach pink, jasmine white, and bubble blue. Each color is suitable for young consumers, looking stylish and exquisite.
In terms of interior design, the new car fully considers user needs in details. The center console is lower, providing a better view and reserved storage space above. The shift knob design on the dashboard is inspired by desserts. The function buttons adopt the design elements of a game controller, which is quite distinctive. The driver and passenger seats are designed in a 6:4 ratio, with the driver’s seat width of 480mm and depth of 430mm, larger and more comfortable than similar products.
