Verdict
The Wuling Porta EV 400KM costs RM6,000 more, and that money goes squarely into a 56.2-kWh battery and 400 km range, versus 41.9 kWh and 300 km in the 300KM. Both use the same 100-hp, 180-Nm rear motor, reach 115 km/h and carry the same safety and cabin equipment, so there is no performance or kit upgrade. For a Malaysian commercial operator who can use the extra 100 km between charges, the 400KM is the sensible step up; otherwise, save the money.
Pick the Wuling Porta EV 300KM if 300 km covers your daily route and you would rather keep the RM6,000 saving.
Pick the Wuling Porta EV 400KM if an extra 100 km of quoted range will reduce charging stops on your work runs.
