The Baojun 730 is a five-door seven-seater MPV launched by the Baojun car marque at the 2014 Auto China motor show. The car was developed at the SAIC-GM-Wuling Chinese joint venture specifically for the Chinese market.[1] Baojun sold 250,000 units in the first year of sales.[2]

The 730 is powered by a choice of 4-cylinder engines: a 110 bhp (82 kW; 112 PS) 1.5 L (1485 cc) engine producing 108 lb·ft (146 N·m) and a 1.8 L (1796 cc) version, producing 135 bhp (101 kW; 137 PS). Both are mated to a five-speed transmission and the suspension was tuned by Lotus.[3]
