On October 21st, the Ai Shang brand officially launched its first-ever pure electric micro-car: the Ai Shang A100C. The new vehicle is available in four configurations. It has a highly competitive price range of ¥39,800 to ¥52,800 (approx. $5,500 to $7,300 USD).

Ai Shang is a new joint venture brand from two industrial heavyweights: Liuzhou Wuling and Henan Senyuan. As the brand’s debut model, the A100C comes impressively equipped. All models are standard with a 17.65 kWh LFP (lithium iron phosphate) battery. This delivers a solid CLTC pure electric range of 220 kilometers.

During the launch event, Ai Shang also teased its future direction. The brand revealed the upcoming iSee Shooting Brake concept car.

Cute, Compact, and Colorful Design

The Ai Shang A100C features a nimble and adorable exterior design. It’s available in seven vibrant exterior colors. These include “Purple Vow,” “Moonlight White,” “Pinked,” “Certain Silver,” “Pine Green,” “Bright Yellow,” and “Hey Hey Black.” The front fascia creates a charming “smiling” face through the clever shaping of its body panels and headlights. This makes the car instantly likable.

The car’s dimensions are perfect for the city, measuring 3285mm (L) x 1708mm (W) x 1550mm (H), with a 1980mm wheelbase. It rides on 165/70 R14 Diamond-brand tires, with steel wheels covered by decorative hubcaps. High-spec models even include heated side mirrors, ensuring clear visibility on rainy or cold days.

The rear design is rounded and soft, perfectly matching the car’s cute overall style. Parking sensors are standard on all models, while mid-to-high-spec versions add a reverse camera. The top-trim model boasts both front and rear cameras, making it exceptionally friendly for new drivers.

A Smart Interior with Surprising Tech

Inside, buyers can choose from three fresh color palettes: “Jasmine White,” “Mint Green,” and “Grapefruit.” The steering wheel features multifunction keys on the right side. Mid-to-high-spec models are equipped with a 10.25-inch central control screen.

This screen supports multi-system phone connectivity, including HUAWEI HiCar. The vehicle’s system also features voice control. Furthermore, a remote APP allows owners to pre-condition the air conditioning. They can also use it to locate their car in a crowded lot.

The A100C is a 3-door, 4-seat vehicle. The main driver’s seat has four-way manual adjustment. The design also ensures adequate passage width for accessing the rear seats. The trunk offers 106L of regular space—enough for three children’s school bags. When the rear seats are folded down, the space expands to 882L. This can accommodate camping gear for a two-person getaway.

Efficient Powertrain and Practical Charging

The A100C uses a single front-mounted electric motor. It provides a maximum power of 35 kW (47 hp) and 83 N·m of torque. It features a convenient column-mounted gear shifter. The 17.65 kWh LFP battery provides a 220 km CLTC range.

Charging is practical for daily use. It offers a 30-minute DC fast charge (30-80% likely, though not specified). The slow AC charge time is under 5 hours. The chassis setup is a standard-for-the-class front MacPherson strut and rear torsion beam non-independent suspension.

Why a Micro-EV First?

The decision for Ai Shang, the Wuling-Senyuan joint brand, to launch with a micro-car is a strategic one. From the manufacturer’s standpoint, the brand has access to mature technology and production lines. This makes the cost of producing micro-cars relatively low.

From the market’s perspective, the brand barrier in the micro-car segment is not as rigid. For consumers, what matters most is guaranteed quality, ease of driving, and an affordable price. In this regard, Liuzhou Wuling brings a formidable reputation and deep experience in quality manufacturing. This gives the A100C a strong foundation for success.
