The pioneer of the electric micro-car revolution is back. On March 27, 2026, the 5th Gen Wuling Hongguang MINIEV officially launched in Zhuhai, China. With over 1.9 million units sold globally and 67 consecutive months as the segment sales leader, the MINIEV family continues to be the “People’s Choice.”
Available at wulingcars.com, the new generation introduces four configurations with ranges of 205km and 301km, evolving from a basic commuter tool into a sophisticated, “four-door fun” lifestyle icon.
Advanced Tianyu Architecture: A New Technical Milestone
The 5th Gen MINIEV is built on the Tianyu Architecture S-Platform, setting five new industry standards in architecture, intelligence, space, safety, and energy consumption. This platform ensures the vehicle is not just smaller, but smarter and more efficient, pushing the boundaries of what a micro-EV can achieve.
Smart Space: The Only Four-Door Design in its Class
Breaking the mold of traditional micro-cars, the 5th Gen MINIEV features a unique four-door, four-seat layout.
Compact yet Roomy: Measuring 3268mm in length with a tiny 4.5m turning radius, it is perfect for navigating tight city streets and effortless parking.

Designed for the modern commuter, the 5th Gen MINIEV offers two range options—205km and 301km.
