What engine does the Beijing BJ80 have?
2 Answers
The engine of the Beijing BJ80 is provided by Liuzhou Wuling Liuji Power Co., Ltd., and is a domestically produced engine. The 2.3T version of the Beijing BJ80 engine has the model number B231R, with a maximum power of 170 kW and a maximum torque of 280 Nm. The 3.0T version has the model number 6G30TQY, with a maximum power of 206 kW and a maximum torque of 420 Nm. For the daily maintenance of the Beijing BJ80 engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the oil and oil filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, leading to various engine issues. To avoid faults, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through, it may rupture the filter or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the relief valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls. These mix with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
The Beijing BJ80 is primarily equipped with two engine versions: a 2.3-liter four-cylinder turbocharged gasoline engine and a 3.0-liter V6 turbocharged gasoline engine, both independently developed and produced by Beijing Automotive. The performance is quite robust. I've driven my friend's BJ80 several times, and the 2.3T engine delivers quick acceleration from a standstill, making overtaking in the city effortless. It boasts a maximum power output of approximately 250 horsepower, with solid low-end torque performance for off-roading, handling dirt roads and mud pits with ease. Fuel consumption isn't particularly low, averaging 11-12L/100km in urban driving and dropping to around 10L on highways. It runs on 95-octane fuel, keeping costs relatively manageable. The engine noise is slightly loud at startup, but the sound insulation system is well-designed, making the cabin quiet once the windows are closed. Maintenance is straightforward, typically requiring only oil and filter changes, with affordable and readily available parts. However, it's tuned based on the Mercedes-Benz G-Class platform, ensuring high reliability. After over a year of use, it hasn't had any major issues, making it a solid choice for enthusiasts of rugged, hardcore styling.
