UMVA has learned that Dongguan’s latest electric SUV, the all‑new Vigo EV, has roared onto the Philippine market with a promise of 471 kilometers on a single charge.
The compact SUV packs a 161‑horsepower motor and 230 Nm of torque, delivering brisk acceleration while keeping energy consumption whisper‑quiet. A rapid‑charge session of just 18 minutes restores full power, and a five‑minute top‑up adds a surprising 114 kilometers of range.
Inside, the cabin feels like a smart lounge. A 12.8‑inch high‑definition display syncs seamlessly with Apple CarPlay, while an advanced voice‑recognition system lets drivers command climate, windows and multimedia without lifting a finger.
Practicality meets versatility with a two‑section tailgate and a 500‑liter boot that expands beyond 1,000 liters when the rear seats fold flat—perfect for weekend getaways or daily errands.
Safety is woven into every stitch of the Vigo EV. Adaptive cruise control, forward‑collision warning, lane‑keeping, lane‑departure and lane‑centering assists create a protective cocoon around occupants, turning each drive into a confidence‑boosting experience.
Unique “Nap” and “Camp” modes allow the battery to power cabin climate and external devices, turning the vehicle into a mobile sanctuary for rest or work on the road.
Pricing starts at ₱1.458 million, offered in six eye‑catching shades—from Arctic White to Canyon Orange—each backed by a 10‑year battery guarantee and a five‑year bumper‑to‑bumper warranty.
Sources have confirmed to UMVA that the launch gathered industry leaders, including Legado Motors Chairman Gov. Chavit Singson, alongside senior executives and eager customers, all celebrating a bold step toward a cleaner, more resilient future.
