The old Beiqi is in pain, and the new 212 configuration is out! The interior is largely renovated with 8AT gearbox
Before the Great Wall off-road vehicles caught fire, the share of Beijing off-road family series products was relatively high, such as Beijing bj40 has always had a good reputation, and there was almost no competitor before the tank 300. In fact, in addition to the BAIC Group, there is another BAIC, that is, the old BAIC, the full name is Beijing Automobile Manufacturing Plant, the two manufacturers are actually not much related, the main product of the Beijing Automobile Manufacturing Plant is Beijing 212, the model can be called the originator of domestic off-road vehicles, by 2022 there have been 57 years of history.
It is a pity that Beijing 212 has made little progress in the past few decades, and in recent years it has obviously begun to decline. Seeing that the Beijing BJ40 and tank 300 configurations are becoming more and more abundant, the old Beijing 212 is still indifferent, and the result is to be eliminated by the market, and in 2021, the official has announced that the old Beijing 212 has completely stopped production. This does not mean that the 212 model has been thrown into the garbage heap, because only the old platform has been abandoned, and there will be a new generation of Beijing 212 to meet with everyone.
Recently, we finally saw the product introduction PPT flowing out of the Beijing Automobile Manufacturing Plant, which finally unveiled part of the mystery. It can be seen that the new Beijing 212 will be divided into three different versions, divided into hard top version, soft top version, and pickup version, which can meet the needs of more consumers. The size of the new car is still not large, the total length of the body is controlled at 4325mm, the wheelbase is only 2460mm, the contour size is not as good as beijing bj40 and tank 300, it is expected to take the cost-effective route.
Judging from the design drawings introduced by PPT, the appearance of the new generation of Beijing 212 has become significantly more refined, and the front face of the front of the car retains circular retro headlights, which are replaced by high-intensity competitive bars, and the original steel pipe bullpen bars are not abandoned. The body side muscle waist line is more prominent, which also indicates that the level of the unloading process will be improved, at least the stamping sheet metal production line is no longer the original small workshop mode, the original factory provides a hard-core anti-off-loop wheel, with at-off-road tires.
Although the trailer picture seen now is not particularly clear, but it can also be roughly seen that the interior of the new car has changed significantly, the new Beijing 212 has finally abandoned the plastic interior that has been used for decades, and the hardtop version will provide full LCD instruments and large-size central control navigation screens, at least the scientific and technological atmosphere has kept up with the trend of the times. The air conditioner outlet can be seen in the front and rear rows, and the car is covered with a color-block soft bag material, which is much more comfortable.
More worth looking forward to is the new power configuration, the teaser's parameter table can already see three different versions of the engine, the most introductory version with a 2.0 liter displacement naturally aspirated engine, the middle is a 2.0T turbo version, the highest equipped with a 2.4T engine, it is not known whose engine system Beijing Automobile Factory will borrow, but now it seems that 2.0T may come from Great Wall Motors.
The gearbox also has highlights, in addition to the 5MT manual transmission, this time you can also see the 8at configuration, the current domestic mainstream off-road vehicle habits to use ZF 8at hand automatic transmission, it is expected that Beijing Automobile Factory will also follow the trend, if coupled with the reliable electronic control time-sharing four-wheel drive, then the Beijing 212 new car is simply painful, can make the domestic off-road car fans sit and wait.
The question is, do you think the new design of Beijing 212 is pleasing to the eye? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area and discuss with fans! Spend a second to pay attention and make good friends for a lifetime! Some of the pictures come from the Internet, it is not easy to write an article, and it is expected that the officials will be able to click three times in one click.
