The Baojun RS-3 is the successor of Baojun 510, while the 510 continued to be sold alongside the RS-3. As the car sports the new Baojun nomenclature, design language and new Baojun logo, it is marketed under the 'New Baojun' subcategory.[1][2]

The car was revealed in September 2019, featuring the Interstellar Geometry design language of the brand.[3] and was available across China in October 2019.[4]

At launch in 2019, the power of the Baojun RS-3 comes from a 105 PS (103 HP) 1.5-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder gasoline engine producing 98 horsepower and 105 pound-feet of torque mated to either a CVT automatic that simulates eight fixed gear ratios or a six-speed manual transmission. Starting from the 2021 model year, an additional turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine producing 145 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque connected to a continuously variable automatic transmission was added as standard on the RS-3 Smart Lofty trim while being optional on the Smart Elite and Smart Luxury trims.[5]

The Baojun RS-3 is available in four trim levels in China, with prices ranging between RMB 71,800 and RMB 89,800 ($10,160-$12,710). Interior technologies of the RS-3 include Baojun’s connectivity system that integrates mobile connectivity , an advanced voice recognition system, and over-the-air software upgrades. The RS-3 also features an additional Bosch-supplied Level 2 advanced adaptive cruise control system that can be activated at speeds under 130 km/h (81 mph).[6]
