What brand engine is the BJ40 equipped with?
2 Answers
The BJ40 is equipped with a 2.4L inline-four naturally aspirated engine with the code name G4CA, which is an improvement over the 2.7L engine previously used in the BAW Warrior. It offers two power options: 2.0T and 2.3T, capable of delivering maximum torque outputs of 320N·m and 350N·m, respectively. More details are as follows: 1. Exterior design: The Beijing Auto BJ40, with its rugged SUV style, features numerous right-angle designs, exuding a strong masculine appeal. Interior design: As an off-road vehicle, it does not boast luxurious decorations but adopts a simple and rugged design style reminiscent of the "Wrangler." The window and central locking switches are designed as toggle levers, giving a very retro feel. 2. Powertrain: The BJ40 is powered by a 2.4L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 105kW and a maximum torque of 217Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The new vehicle also features a mechanical part-time four-wheel-drive system and employs a body-on-frame structure. Additionally, the Beijing Jeep BJ40's rear suspension is a five-link non-independent setup, providing better support for extreme off-road conditions.
The BJ40 primarily uses engines developed by Beijing Automotive, with the mainstream versions currently equipped with BAIC's own 2.0T gasoline engine, model named B201, which features direct fuel injection technology and delivers strong low-end torque. Older models once used a 2.0T engine from Shenyang Aerospace Mitsubishi, model 4G63S4T, but these are rarely seen now. In terms of driving experience, BAIC's 2.0T is tuned for off-road performance, with sufficient low-end torque that handles gravel roads and climbs confidently, though fuel consumption... you know how it is with rugged off-roaders. If you come across a turbocharged diesel version, it's likely powered by a Yuchai engine, known for its rumbling, powerful feel.
