As part of its commitment to cleaner and more energy-efficient mobility, Beijing Automotive has introduced a Range-Extended Electric Vehicle (REEV) version of its core off-road model, the BJ40-now known as the BJ40e.
Beijing BJ40e features a unique four-wheel drive system powered by a 1.5T engine acting as a generator, paired with front and rear electric motors. This setup marks a significant departure from the traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) version. The 1.5T generator delivers a maximum power of 138 kW, while the front and rear motors produce 153 kW and 250 kW, respectively. Combined, the motors have a total power output of 403 kW and a torque of 655 Nm, enabling the vehicle to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.5 seconds.
Beijing BJ40e also incorporates an intelligent full-time four-wheel drive system with a decoupled design, achieving an impressive maximum wheel-end torque of 9,000 Nm. This ensures exceptional off-road capability, allowing the vehicle to navigate even the most challenging terrains with ease. Additionally, the system boasts a dynamic torque response time of just 60ms, enabling rapid adjustments to changing road conditions for a smoother and safer driving experience.
In terms of off-road performance, Beijing BJ40e excels with an approach angle of 38°, a departure angle of 37°, a wading depth of 750 mm, and a minimum ground clearance of 215 mm. It is equipped with a 40.3 kWh lithium-ion battery, offering a pure electric range of 152 km and an average fuel consumption of 8.68 L/100 km. When fully fueled and charged, the vehicle achieves a comprehensive driving range of over 1,200 km.
Built on a robust body-on-frame structure, Beijing BJ40e features a front double-wishbone suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension. It is further enhanced by three differential locks - front and rear electromagnetic mechanical differentiaal locks and an intelligent electric central differential lock - along with an advanced all-terrain intelligent ATSS control system. This system includes 4 city commuting modes, 6 off-road modes, and 1 track mode, ensuring versatility across diverse driving conditions.
To ensure durability in off-road environments, the battery is securely housed within the frame and features a quick-disassembly design for easy maintenance. Beijing BJ40e comes standard with 275/55 R20 tires and low-air drag wheel rims, which are wider and larger than those on the ICE version, further enhancing its rugged appeal and performance.
