The Wuling Starlight 560, identified as the Wuling Xingguang 560 SUV in its manufacturer brochure, is a versatile SUV developed around practical passenger space, flexible seating and three powertrain choices. The brochure presents plug-in hybrid (PHEV), battery-electric (BEV) and gasoline (fuel) versions. That selection gives families and professional automotive buyers different ways to evaluate charging access, daily driving and long-distance use.
For global dealers and car importers comparing Wuling vehicles and Chinese SUVs, this guide explains the documented powertrain, interior, safety and equipment features relevant to sourcing.
All product data comes from the original Wuling brochure; export specifications require confirmation.

The Starlight 560 measures 4,745 × 1,850 × 1,755 mm with a 2,810 mm wheelbase. It has a manufacturer-stated 3,202 mm effective cabin length, 83% space utilization and luggage arrangements of 763 L, 947 L including underfloor storage, or 1,945 L with rear seats folded.
The brochure normally illustrates a five-seat cabin but also says a seven-seat version can be supported. It does not provide a full seven-seat export configuration, so seven-seat availability must be verified separately. This matters for product listings: a standard five-seat Starlight 560 should not be advertised as a confirmed seven-seater.
The range includes a PHEV with 1,100 km manufacturer-stated comprehensive range, a BEV with 500 km CLTC-rated range, and gasoline versions with either a 1.5T six-speed manual (6MT) or 1.5T continuously variable transmission (CVT).

The named PHEV 125km Luxury version features a 145 kW drive motor, 230 N·m peak torque and a 20.5 kWh battery.
Wuling also describes a special electromagnetic clutch capable of 0.1-second shifting and smooth switching between series and parallel hybrid operation. These are manufacturer-stated technical characteristics, not results from an independent road test.
The PHEV is advertised with 1,100 km comprehensive range. Actual results vary by conditions. The brochure does not identify the test cycle for the named “125km” PHEV trim.
Starlight 560 PHEV with manufacturer-stated 145 kW motor, 230 N·m torque and hybrid switching technology.
Importers should verify emissions compliance, service capability and battery support.
The named 500km Luxury BEV lists a 56.7 kWh battery, 100 kW drive motor, 6.6 kW AC charging and 2C DC fast charging. Its 500 km range uses the CLTC test cycle; real-world range varies.
The brochure promotes 30% to 80% fast charging in approximately 20 minutes and says a 15-minute charge can add 200 km of range. These are manufacturer promotional figures subject to charging conditions, battery temperature, equipment compatibility and test assumptions. They should not be stated as guaranteed at every charging station.
The brochure also advertises 220 V external power discharge for suitable outdoor activities; export electrical specifications require confirmation.

The BEV specification page expressly states “RHD Version Available.” This note applies to the listed BEV version; it does not demonstrate that every PHEV or gasoline variant is offered in right-hand drive. Local regulatory approval remains a separate requirement.
The brochure also identifies two fuel-powered configurations: Xingguang 560 1.5T 6MT Comfort and Xingguang 560 1.5T CVT Elite. This provides a familiar refueling option where EV infrastructure or customer demand differs from that of highly electrified markets.
These trims should not be described as identical. The 6MT Comfort sheet lists steel wheels with decorative covers, fabric seats, a manually adjustable driver's seat, two speakers, front airbags, ABS and a mechanical handbrake. The CVT Elite sheet lists alloy wheels, a six-way power-adjustable driver's seat, a 12.8-inch central screen, six speakers, front side airbags, ESC and an electronic parking brake with Auto Hold.
The brochure does not specify gasoline fuel-consumption or price figures.
The brochure emphasizes a 2,810 mm wheelbase, 3,202 mm effective interior length, 83% space utilization, 1,527 mm cabin width and 990 mm seat spacing.
These manufacturer measurements help buyers evaluate rear-seat accommodation without establishing an independent class ranking.

The brochure positions the cabin as a place for family mobility, everyday travel and leisure. Its “mobile living room” idea includes flexible seating and a wide rear liftgate for outdoor views. The marketing illustrations show how rear-seat folding can create a roughly two-meter-long flat resting area in the shown arrangement. This is a leisure-space illustration, not a claim that the vehicle provides certified sleeping accommodation.
The regular illustrated layout is five seats with folding rear seats. Wuling presents several adaptable arrangements: five-seat Family Mode, four-seat Hobby Mode, three-seat Business Helper Mode and two-seat Getaway Mode. These describe different ways to balance occupants and cargo by folding particular rear-seat sections.
Folded-seat configurations may suit luggage or equipment, subject to vehicle load limits.
The brochure mentions seven-seat support but provides no detailed seven-seat variant sheet; confirm that option separately.

A major practical selling point is the rear luggage compartment. The brochure states 763 L standard luggage volume, with 184 L hidden underfloor space. Together, the two areas are advertised as 947 L. When the rear seats are folded, the manufacturer states 1,945 L of expanded luggage capacity.
These figures apply to different arrangements: 1,945 L requires folding the rear seats. The brochure also highlights a wide liftgate and low loading threshold.

Wuling describes the Starlight 560's styling through an X-family light signature, X body surface design and a rugged SUV appearance. Exterior photographs show its upright stance, distinctive front lighting and family-oriented proportions. The brochure also identifies roof rails in its design presentation; importantly, the detailed PHEV and BEV equipment lists call these “decorative only.” No roof-load rating is supplied, so they should not be advertised as load-bearing equipment.

Four exterior colors are illustrated: Silver Frost White, Obsidian Black, Haze Gray and Interstellar Blue. Two interior color themes are shown: Walnut Brown and Warm Sand Brown. Confirm color availability by trim and production batch.

The brochure presents a six-ring high-strength steel cage body, 74.9% high-strength steel proportion and 1,500 MPa hot-formed steel at 20 positions. It also illustrates front and rear crash-management structures. These specifications are not an independent crash-test rating.

For electrified versions, the source highlights the MAGIC Battery and describes cloud-based intelligent monitoring for battery-safety management. The brochure makes promotional claims concerning battery-safety experience and monitoring; these should be treated as manufacturer claims, not guarantees that thermal incidents are impossible or that connected monitoring operates in all export destinations.

Trim differences matter. The PHEV Luxury, BEV Luxury and CVT Elite list front and front-side airbags, ESC, rear radar, reversing camera and indirect TPMS. The 6MT Comfort instead lists front airbags, ABS, rear radar and indirect TPMS, without the same higher-trim equipment list.
The same principle applies to infotainment. The 12.8-inch display, six speakers and listed CarPlay, HiCar and DLNA connections appear in the higher-equipped specifications, while the gasoline manual's listed audio equipment is simpler. Verify device compatibility and language support in each export market.
For international dealers, the Starlight 560 combines several powertrain choices with flexible SUV packaging.
The PHEV may appeal to buyers seeking gasoline backup, the BEV to drivers with charging access, and the gasoline trims to customers preferring conventional refueling.
A wholesale sourcing assessment should verify left- or right-hand drive, destination-market homologation, specific safety equipment, charging connectors, documentation, spare parts arrangements and warranty terms. A brochure feature list is not an import approval or an export-supply commitment.
WulingVIP.com welcomes enquiries from overseas car dealers, importers, distributors and fleet procurement teams seeking competitive FOB sourcing options for Wuling models. The actual offer depends on confirmed model specification, quantity, export availability and agreed trade terms; no fixed export price is quoted in this article.
The brochure mainly shows a regular five-seat SUV and illustrates several folding-seat arrangements. It also mentions support for a seven-seat version, but gives no detailed seven-seat variant specification. Confirm availability before ordering or advertising it.
Yes. The brochure presents all three powertrain categories. The documented gasoline choices include 1.5T 6MT Comfort and 1.5T CVT Elite variants.
The named 500km Luxury BEV is advertised at 500 km CLTC with a 56.7 kWh battery. Real-world range depends on driving and charging conditions. The PHEV brochure names a “125km Luxury” trim and advertises 1,100 km comprehensive range, but does not specify the test cycle for that 125 km designation in its detailed sheet.
The manufacturer states 2C DC fast charging, 30%–80% in about 20 minutes, and an advertised 200 km of range added in 15 minutes under its claimed conditions. Charging performance depends on equipment and battery conditions.
The brochure specifies 763 L standard, 947 L including 184 L of underfloor space, and up to 1,945 L with rear seats folded. The configurations are different and should be described separately.
The BEV 500km Luxury specification explicitly says RHD Version Available. Right-hand-drive availability for other variants requires separate confirmation, as does local vehicle certification.
The brochure's detailed PHEV and BEV specifications describe the roof rails as decorative only. No load rating is supplied; do not assume they support roof cargo.
International dealers and importers can enquire about competitive FOB quotations based on intended market, vehicle version and order quantity. Final prices and export eligibility need direct confirmation.
The Wuling Starlight 560 (Xingguang 560) brings together a five-seat-focused, flexible interior, a manufacturer-stated 2,810 mm wheelbase, up to 1,945 L folded-seat cargo capacity and a choice of PHEV, BEV or gasoline propulsion.
