Do you also have a section of the slopes? Of course! The most difficult of the pistes is called the "black slopes", the steep slopes, the long distance, is a presence that every skier does not dare to challenge easily. However, Chen Zhen, the founder of the Radish Report and the host of the off-road road book, was invited to participate in the off-road vehicle black slope challenge and successfully reached the top. With excellent driving skills, mental quality and the hard core strength of the Beijing off-road BJ40 Ring Tower Champion Edition, Chen Zhen and BJ40 finally successfully topped the Lotus Mountain Black Slopes.
Climb to the top of the black slopes - more than strength!
Pistatic driving is believed to be no stranger to many off-road enthusiasts. However, many people know very little about the "black slopes", and even believe that the difficulty of climbing the black slopes is not much more difficult than that of ordinary vehicles.
In layman's terms, the so-called "black slopes" are slopes of more than 40% (angles of more than 18°). This is also the most difficult of the slope classification. Climbing such a snow slope, in addition to a great test of the driver's driving ability, the vehicle's power system, off-road ability, and hardware are also facing great challenges. However, not long ago, with Chen Zhen's superb driving skills and the strong mechanical strength of the Beijing off-road BJ40, he finally reached the top of the Lotus Mountain Black Ski Trail (with a total length of nearly 800 meters, a maximum drop of more than 150 meters, and a maximum slope of 35°).
Some people may say, isn't it just climbing? Even an ordinary off-road vehicle can complete such a challenge, right? In fact, compared to those with strong cement or asphalt pavement, the soft slopes greatly reduce the adhesion of the tires, and the black lanes of Lotus Mountain are not a straight line to the end, it is a curve in the middle of three continuous ramps, and the vehicle cannot use inertia to rush the slope by increasing the initial speed. If the vehicle speed and the limiting slip system are not properly coordinated, it is easy to have the problem of climbing failure, and once the speed is lost and slid down, the vertical drop of 150 meters will be a huge danger. Therefore, climbing to the top of the black slopes is difficult even for professional off-road vehicles and professional riders.
In this challenge, Chen Zhen is driving the BJ40 Ring Tower Champion Edition produced by Beijing Off-Road, its non-bearing body structure, double B-pillar design, and professional roll cage design can escort the driver's personal safety. Previously, there were even cases of vehicles falling from tens of meters of mountains and the driver was safe. In addition, the Beijing Off-Road BJ40 Ring Tower Champion Edition also has a front 37 ° / rear 31 ° approach angle and departure angle, of course, the minimum ground clearance of 220 mm also allows it to walk flat in rugged outdoor environments.
In addition to the hardware, there is also a snow mode on the Beijing off-road BJ40 Ring Tower Champion Edition driven by Chen Zhen, as long as the snow mode is selected at the beginning of the challenge, the "three locks" on the car and the time-sharing four-wheel drive system will dynamically distribute the torque of each drive wheel to ensure the stability of the vehicle during the climbing process to the greatest extent. Judging from the results, in the process of the challenge, the Beijing off-road BJ40 Ring Tower Champion Edition did not change, and finally Chen Zhen and the Beijing Off-Road BJ40 Ring Tower Champion Edition climbed the black slope together and won the challenge.
The BJ40 completed the feat of the First Black Grade Pistes by a Chinese brand off-road vehicle, behind which beijing off-road has always been a professional off-road and the spirit of challenging the limits. Under the support of such professional strength and challenge spirit, similar to the achievements of the black slopes, the BJ40 journey abounds.
Go to Dakar again and brave the "hell"
The Dakar Rally is not only called the "game of the brave", but also known as the "purgatory on earth" by many participants. In addition to the double torture of mental and physical needs to be overcome, the test of the participating vehicles has long exceeded the "limit" imagined by most people.
However, Beijing Off-Road, known as the "tough guy" brand, did not choose to give up in such an appalling competition environment. Although Beijing Cross-Country has gained a lot in the 2021 Dakar Rally, this still can't stop Beijing Off-Road from continuing to compete in the Dakar Rally. At the beginning of this year, Beijing off-road sent Zhang Guoyu/Pan Hongyu to join the specially strengthened Beijing off-road BJ40. Together, they compete with many players in the Dakar Rally, which is known as the "hell on earth".
In fact, from the perspective of the participating environment, the Dakar Rally is significantly worse in the track environment. Due to the increase in Riyadh circuits, this year's Dakar Rally became the most stone road in many years. Of course, as in the past Dakar Rally, the sand and mud along the way will never be less, and all kinds of mountains and riverbeds are also readily available. Therefore, from the perspective of participation, no matter what kind of ranking you finally get, as long as you can complete this race completely, you can call it a "feat".
Breaking the N39 record, still shocking
Compared with the world-famous Dakar Rally, the N39 (along the 39th parallel across the Taklamakan Desert) route is a "feast" for domestic professional cross-country enthusiasts. It is such an off-road route, known as the "death line", which attracts many professional off-road people to "punch in" every year.
The Beijing off-road BJ40, which is known as the strongest off-road car in China, did not miss the N39 track. Previously, Dong Changkai single-handedly drove the Beijing off-road BJ40 Ring Tower Version and successfully crossed the N39 track called "The Devil", breaking the N39 record with a score of 7 days and 5 hours. In addition to overcoming the near-limit living environment, the driver must always be on the lookout for the state of the vehicle. Stuck in a car? Of course, this is an indispensable link on the N39 road, and how to get out of trouble quickly tests the professional performance of the driver and the ability of the model to get out of trouble under complex road conditions.
Along the N39, occasionally you can see inland rivers, poplar trees, and almost negligible wildlife, and the rest of the landscape is made up of sand. Whether it's for professional off-road players or explorers, N39 is not an idle person. Therefore, being able to break the N39 record with a single-player attitude, in addition to requiring a strong psychological quality, the durability and stability of the vehicle also play a key role.
In fact, the roll cage, three locks, four-wheel drive system, mature and deep potential of the power system, these hardware in the mainstream hardcore off-road vehicles have long been seen. However, it is also an indisputable fact that most of the models are from the European and American car series, and for the Beijing off-road, which is known for its professional reliability, with continuous deep cultivation in the professional off-road field, it has gradually armed its own products to the teeth at the professional level. Known by netizens as "China's strongest off-road car", this is the appeal of the BJ40 Ring Tower Champion Version, yes, no modification, there is no opponent in the 200,000 price range BJ40.
Conclusion:
Emphasizing the BJ40 professional, it is not because it is the only one in the field of off-roading in China, it is professional because of its monopoly, on the contrary,
In recent years, many models have emerged in the domestic off-road circle, such as the Great Wall Tank 300. But with so many models competing in the off-road field, the BJ40 still shows its professional strength with its hardcore off-road capabilities, long off-road history, and pure off-road genes. Perhaps everyone can have a place in the light off-road life, but in the eyes of the core off-road circle, the BJ40 is still a unique existence.
