BAIC BJ60 2024.

We recommended the new BAIC BJ60 2024 for purchase: they could not find any flaws in it.

Chinese automaker BAIC produces the BJ60 SUV, which is positioned as a reliable and not the most demanding vehicle for off-road travel.

BAIC has already established production of some models at the Avtotor plant and is ready to launch sales of the BJ60 SUV in our country at the beginning of 2024, as was recently announced by the press service of the Chinese company.

We will look at what to expect from this model and what Russian buyers should prepare for in this article based on reviews from Chinese BJ60 owners.

Advantages

High level of off-road capability. Firstly, the BJ60 has very good cross-country ability thanks to its increased ground clearance (200 mm) and all-wheel drive system.

This allows the car to feel confident in difficult off-road areas, overcome fords, mud and deep snow.

Reliability.

Another significant advantage is reliability. The SUV uses a proven frame structure that provides high service life and durability.

The owners note that the “BIKE” rarely breaks down and works without serious breakdowns for tens of thousands of kilometers; the most important thing is to perform timely maintenance.

Flaws

Lack of diesel engine in the range. However, the BJ60 also has some disadvantages.

Firstly, it is only available with a 2.0-litre petrol engine, which is not as efficient as the diesel.

Lack of modern high-tech systems. Secondly, the SUV is not equipped with all modern technologies.

It lacks automatic braking, adaptive cruise control and other smart features that many Chinese and other competitors have.

Sales of the updated 2024 BAIC BJ60 SUV have started on the Chinese market.

The main feature of this model is the 2-liter turbodiesel engine, which, according to the official statement, is capable of starting at temperatures of -30 degrees.

That is, the Chinese engine is already prepared for the Russian climate.

The maximum output of this unit reaches 163 hp, torque — 400 N*m.

This engine comes with a 48-volt starter-generator, which reduces fuel consumption by 10% compared to the gasoline version of the Chinese model.

As a result, the power reserve of the new product has increased to 1000 kilometers. The car is designed to tow a trailer weighing 2.5 tons.

In addition to this, buyers receive an 8-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive with lockable cross-axle differentials and reduction gear.

Prices for an SUV in China start at the equivalent of 3.6 million rubles, recalculated at the exchange rate.

Note that over time this model may appear in Russia: the assembly of BAIC cars has already started in Kaliningrad.
