The $11,000 Wuling Asta Is The Cheapest SUV We've Ever Tested
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
We've tested some pretty affordable vehicles here on Wheelsboy, but the Wuling Asta might be have the biggest value we've ever seen in terms of space alone.

I am actually really happy that your channel is evolving really well. When I saw the first reviews many videos had just a few clicks. Now you have 50.000+ subscribers and most of the vids make at least 10.000 views. Proof that quality content always succeeds.

We’d love to be able to tell you some grand story about why Ethan wears the fanny pack, something about making a promise to a dying relative that he would wear it in their memory or whatever. But the truth is, he just wears it because he likes it😂

Definitely not skipping leg day, Ethan
That’s a VERY competitive car for sure!!! And looks nice

Just the appearance looks good, in fact, like us these young people understand will not buy Wuling🙃
When your car market is so competitive that even cars like this that are kinda "crappy" also have a nice and decent design. And that interior beats most Asian brands!

From Vietnam, neighbor of CHina, we are just wishing that cars are this affordable, tropical climate riding motorcycles under the burning sun or heavy rain is just a misery. Ugly small car here brand new starts from around $20k to have it running on the road, not mentioning about the money u need to pay for parking and other things. What can I say? its just outrageous

License Plates cost ~5x more than this car in China due to demand for more vehicles. This could would cost $11k + $50k just to have if you didn't have plates in China or didn't want to wait 5+ years for the plate lottery to win the plates.

The lovechild of state-owned Shanghai Automotive Industries (SAIC) and General Motors - Wuling. Overseas, they will be branded as Chevrolet
I am in Indonesia, I drive Wuling Confero, which belongs to the lowest class of 3 wuling siblings in our country. The lowest class has 3 variants while mine is the highest of Confero. A 1500cc engine, and I am happy with it, almost get all the luxury feeling yet not make me broke.
Why keep mentioning it's acceptable considering the price point? It's a lot more than acceptable for the price point, in many countries you basically get a sardine can car for that kind of price.
This car looks great, much better looking then a Nissan versa
The Wuling Mini EV along with the BAIC BJ80, and the Hongqi E-HS9 are being exclusively distributed in the USA, Canada and Mexico by Players Club Wheels.
Looks great especially at that price range.
Skoda might have a case here but this thing looks just right and way more expensive than it actually is. Average buyers need utility, relevant comfort, an engine and no car payments.
lovely SUV,for the price point,looks excellent for exterior and interior and love white seats and plenty of space, if available for australia i would buy it for under $20,000 Drive Away prices, with safety standard for australia....
Another great review! Would be good if you could cover the safety aspect of cars in Chinese market - do they have China-specific safety ratings like EuroNCAP or IIHTS and how do the cars fare in it, how they’re tested etc.?

I'm here for the phanny pack. Was not disappointed
we just got that around last April 2023. Wuling Alvez is the badge for Indonesia, cmiiw. It shocks Indonesian market as teh most complete & safe with very competitive price compare to its Japanese competitors.
There is a manual transmission option for this model, a six speed. Wise buyers will choose that for performance, reliability and cost.
Very nice car, when is it coming to uk and i want to buy.
Why do i keep thinking (model wise) i see a Forthing/Fengxing from Dongfeng ? Perhaps it's the side view & tail lights ... I hope you'll visit the DFM T5/T5L in the future. Keep up the amazing work !
it's like a Skoda meets a Peugeot but in a good manner; really, really impressive for a "popular car"!!!
A very nice looking and practical vehicle. I really like the interior. Performance is not a big consideration for me as long as it has reasonable acceleration and can maintain highway speeds.
very cool!

Hi, I like your content, but I got some minor suggestions for you: 1. in some of your videos, the color filter is just too heavy, it may ruin the cars' original appearance. 2. to me as a local guy really into car industry, some of the cars you reviewed are barely heard of. I guess the oversea audience prefer to see more popular models (like Xingyue L, Qin DMi...), China market only models (from VW, GM...) and export models' (Nio, Xpeng, BYD, Haval...) reviews in your channel.

Yes, they’re comparable in size, though the Asta is a bit larger than the Boyue. As for the Baojun 530, it’s longer than both of them, but had the same wheelbase as the Asta and is likely built on the same platform. It certainly has the same powertrain.

I think you are being somewhat unfair here - It looks FANTASTIC for 11k, the trim and seats are FANTASTIC for 11k - The Dimensions interior and exterior are, well, FANTASTIC. For 11k you can just about buy a motorcycle - it doesnt need constant referral to the price point & quality, it is just amazing for that money. Can we buy it in Europe or the US? Does it have airbags? Is it likely to be safe? Whats the fuel economy? If its China only, well, whats the point - it may as well be $200 to buy

As an American you just can't resist the temptation to imply that Chinese imitate western products..... So in this instance it's Skoda..... It's your default settings of looking down on all thing non western
