If you hear the name BJ40, maybe a car enthusiast will immediately remember the figure of an old Toyota LandCruiser that has the well-known name Toyota Hardtop. But this BJ40 is different, and it's not the latest generation of Toyota Hardtop either.
This is the Beijing BJ40, which, if you read the name, you can definitely guess where this fierce-looking SUV came from. Yep, this is a Chinese car that recently appeared in a special edition.
Its full name is Beijing BJ40 City Hunter Edition, which is a special edition of the Beijing BJ40. Unfortunately there is no price yet because this car will only be officially released on July 15 2022.
Looks like a Jeep Wrangler
If you look at the photos in the article that we quoted from Autohome, Thursday (07/14/2022), it is clear that the BJ40 City Hunter Edition is similar to the Jeep Wrangler. This indication is strong from the front fender to the rear.
But specifically for this type, the Beijing BJ40 uses a spare tire cover as standard with a moon-themed image. As for the exterior, it comes with a new color Sea Breeze Blue. But still other colors such as Flame Red, Polar Night Black, Quiet Night Blue, Snow White, and Jungle Green are still provided.
The interior is also still like a Jeep
In the interior of the BJ40 City Hunter Edition, there is no difference compared to other variants. It's just that on the seats, the upholstery uses leather with a little blue accent.
The monitor in the center of the dashboard also measures 10 inches, while underneath the shape of the AC grille still looks classic in the shape of a circle. What's interesting is that the head unit in this car has been integrated with several new features, including the Yueye Car Connected System, WeChat, Voice Command, and OTA upgrades.
On the side of the driver's room, a 12.3-inch LCD instrument monitor has also been provided. Then there are also several multi-function buttons on the steering wheel, dual zone air conditioning, and the engine start / stop button.
The outside mirrors are also equipped with a heating system to prevent dew from appearing in winter.
Use Turbo Engine
In terms of power, it uses a 2.0T petrol engine that uses Turbocharged technology. Its power is claimed to be 224 PS with a maximum torque of 380 Nm. While the transmission uses an 8-speed ZF gearbox.
