The maximum torque speed of this engine is between 1800 and 2800 rpm, and the maximum power speed is 4000 rpm. This engine features direct injection technology and uses an aluminum cylinder head and cast iron cylinder block. The 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine has a maximum torque of 224 horsepower and 380 Nm. The maximum torque speed of this engine is between 1900 and 4300 rpm, and the maximum power speed is 5500 rpm. This engine employs multi-point injection technology and uses an aluminum cylinder head and cast iron cylinder block. The 2.3-liter turbocharged gasoline engine has a maximum power of 170 kW and a peak torque of 345 Nm, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. The maximum torque speed of this engine is between 1900 and 4000 rpm, and the maximum power speed is 5200 rpm.

I recently purchased the Beijing BJ40 diesel version. As an off-road enthusiast, I'm particularly concerned about its fuel consumption performance. Official data shows a fuel consumption of around 8.5 liters per 100 kilometers, but in my actual driving experience, it's approximately 9-10 liters under mixed road conditions. Fuel consumption rises to about 11 liters in urban traffic jams, while it can drop below 9 liters during highway cruising. The diesel engine of this vehicle is highly efficient, but in off-road mode, the stronger power output slightly increases fuel consumption. Key factors affecting fuel consumption include driving habits and road conditions—rapid acceleration or frequent stops and starts waste fuel, while good road conditions on national highways save a lot. The diesel version is more economical than the gasoline one, saving money in the long run. Optimizing tire pressure and regular maintenance can further help control fuel consumption. Overall, the BJ40 diesel is an economical and durable choice, worth test driving to experience its real performance.
