S350 Overview:
Jiangling Yusheng (S350). With 310 Nm of torque, it offers ample pulling power. With a weight of 1855 kg, it falls in the mid‑range. Rear‑wheel drive offers dynamic handling and sporty feedback. The top speed reaches 155 km/h. A sport utility vehicle offering higher ground clearance and versatile cargo space. Seating for 5 makes it ideal for daily use.

Sharing the same 125 Hp diesel engine, this 2WD variant offers slightly improved performance and responsiveness compared to the AWD model due to reduced drivetrain losses and potentially lower weight. Still not quick, but sufficient for daily driving.
Fuel Economy
This 2WD diesel variant should offer the best fuel economy among the S350 lineup, benefiting from the diesel's inherent efficiency and the absence of the AWD system's drag.
