BJ40 is an off-road vehicle. Taking the new Beijing BJ40 as an example: 1. Dimensions of the new Beijing BJ40: Its body length, width, and height are: 4630mm, 1923mm, and 1871mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2745mm, a fuel tank capacity of 75 liters, a trunk capacity ranging from 532 to 965 liters, and a curb weight of 2080kg. 2. Power of the new Beijing BJ40: It is equipped with a 2.0T direct-injection 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 224PS, a maximum power of 165kW, and a maximum torque of 380Nm, paired with an 8-speed automatic manual transmission.
The BJ40C is a rugged SUV launched by Beijing Automotive, and I particularly love its design, especially the bold front grille and high ground clearance, which give it a commanding presence. It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine that delivers strong power output, with noticeable acceleration and a solid push-back feeling, making it smooth to drive in the city and stable on highways. Its off-road capability is a standout feature, thanks to the four-wheel-drive system and differential lock, allowing it to easily tackle muddy slopes and rough terrain. The interior is spacious enough, comfortably seating three in the back row, and the trunk can accommodate several suitcases. The cabin craftsmanship is refined, with well-contoured seats that ensure comfort on long drives. However, fuel consumption is on the higher side, averaging around 10 liters per 100 kilometers, and it can spike in city traffic jams. Overall, it strikes a balance between ruggedness and comfort, making it ideal for those who enjoy outdoor adventures but also need a daily commuter. I’ve taken it for a spin on mountain roads, and the handling is worth experiencing, though the gear shift response could be quicker.
