Speaking of the BJ212 of the Beijing Automobile Factory, many old drivers must be familiar with it.
If only I had the privilege of riding this car once 40 or 50 years ago, I would have been able to brag and show off with my friends for a week. After all, cars at that time were really scarce, and the road conditions were generally not good, BJ212 could be said to be born at the right time, and was snapped up by major institutions and units.
It's really true to say snap up. At that time, domestic industrial productivity was quite weak, and it was almost impossible to predict that in a few decades China would become the world's largest manufacturing country; even in the late 1970s, the annual output of domestic automobiles would add up to more than 100,000 units, and now, the annual production may not be enough to sell for a month.
BJ212 can produce thousands of units a year in Beijing Automobile Manufacturing Plant, which is already a benchmark for the automotive industry, and in that era, automobile factories in many provinces have also produced their own BJ212 sister models, with various shapes and uneven assembly quality.
Therefore, the old drivers will have such an impression of BJ212: "This car is driving on the road, except for the horn does not sound, everywhere rings ..."
BJ212 looks so simple, in fact, there is a reason, after all, as early as the special period of stopping the import of Gaz GAZ-69 military off-road vehicles, it was born, but I did not expect to have been produced for so many years. Even between 1984 and 2004, 508583 units were produced.
However, the Beijing Automobile Factory also released the news a few months ago that it will hold a decommissioning ceremony for the troop 65 mold, which means that this classic model that has lasted for many years will also say goodbye to us.
But at the same time, the recent hypothetical image of the new generation of BJ212 has also been recently exposed, and the new car is expected to be released this year.
It can be seen that the design of the new generation of BJ212 is more modern, not only the logo part is changed to the word "BAW", the bumper part has changed a lot, the design of the air defense lights has also been cancelled, the interior part should also be upgraded, it is very expected to be equipped with power windows, the number of USB interfaces may also increase, and even may be equipped with a central control multimedia screen and LED headlights.
As for the power, there is news that the new generation of BJ212 is expected to be equipped with the 2.0T engine of Qingdao Lanqiliu machine, the maximum power is 106kW, about 144ps maximum horsepower, the data is only slightly higher than the current BJ212 1.5T engine power, I believe that the torque part is the focus of the improvement. The transmission part, in addition to the 6-speed manual transmission, may even be matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Compared with the popular model Suzuki Jimney in the off-road vehicle, BJ212 although the body size is larger, the curb weight is also heavier, but the horsepower is relatively larger, if the new generation of BJ212 continues to maintain cost performance, entry-level models sell cheaper, with its upgraded base is really possible to sell well in the country, and the Japanese market Jimney has become a common civilian off-road vehicle on the road, not to mention the new generation of BJ212 is also more beautiful.
Moreover, from the current news, the 2022 Jimney model that can meet the national VI emission standards, there are currently car dealers who have offered a price of 328,800 yuan, which is 100,000 yuan more expensive than the tank 300 model, and there is no cost performance at all.
Of course, friends with feelings now start the current BJ212 is also too late, according to its sales of hundreds of units per month, the inventory car must also be sold out for several months, and the 1.5T and 2.4T models that can be bought have achieved the national VI level emission standards. Counting the manufacturer's guidance price of 7.98-10.40 million yuan, the cost performance has an advantage.
Wait for the new model or grab the cash, how will you choose? Welcome to leave a message. Maybe the surprise is more than the new model.
