Go to TQ Wuling’s website and you’ll see that the soon-to-be-launched (expected December) TQ Wuling Bingo is now open for booking. The booking fee is RM50 no matter the variant and colour.
As revealed recently, there’ll be Pro (31.9 kWh LFP battery, 333 km CLTC range) and Max (37.9 kWh LFP battery, 410 km CLTC range) variants – both can be DC-charged at up to 50 kW (30-80% in under 35 minutes). WLTP ranges should be slightly better than the Proton eMas 5‘s 225 km and 325 km.
Kit shared between the two variants include LED head and tail lamps, DRLs, glossy ceramic with soft leatherette panel interior trim, perforated leatherette upholstery, dual 10.25-inch screens, a rotary gear selector and a six-way powered driver’s seat.
Also standard across the range are keyless entry and start, passive cruise control, an electronic parking brake with auto hold, TPMS, six airbags (yes, Indonesia and Thailand only get two) and a 310-litre boot that becomes 790 litres when you fold the back seats down.
Although not listed (yet), there should be a 68 PS/150 Nm front-mounted electric motor (eMas 5 Prime has 79 PS/130 Nm). The website currently only lists equipment shared between the two variants; we do not know yet of differences (if any), but the launch will put that right. You can register your interest here if you’re not ready to book yet. There’ll eventually be Glenmarie, OUG, Melati Utama, Jalan Raja Laut, Butterworth and Johor Jaya outlets.
The Bingo recently had its price slashed by 30k-40k baht (RM4k-5k) to 369k-389k baht (RM47k-50k) in Thailand. Malaysia already has the RM101k-114k Dongfeng Box, the RM100k (before an early-bird package) BYD Atto 2 and the mighty RM57k-70k Proton eMas 5. What do you think the price will be? CKD Segambut, smaller than the eMas 5 in every dimension except height (which it equals) – learn more about the Bingo here.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
RM49K and RM59K would be enticing for new entry level EV buyer.
I may buy this car if its below 40k, good for short commuter trips. However perodua own BEV could even be a cheaper alternative due to battery pack not included in selling price.
Scam again
