The main changes affected the interior. The BJ40 received a completely redesigned interior with an emphasis on digital technology. A 15.6-inch multimedia system screen was installed in the center of the front panel.
The manufacturer offers two design options - black and gray and black and brown. At the same time, BAIC retained the physical control buttons, which is important for off-road use.
The driver's seat is equipped with electric adjustments in six directions. The interior layout is focused on combining off-road tasks and everyday comfort.
The technical part remained the same. The BJ40 is equipped with two 2.0-liter engines. The gasoline engine develops 245 hp, the diesel engine - 163 hp. Both units work in tandem with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
BAIC BJ40 is officially present on the Russian market. These SUVs are assembled in Kaliningrad, which makes the model update especially relevant for buyers in Russia.
