The BAIC BJ80, a formidable off-roader, has made its grand entrance to the Bahrain automotive scene. Launched at the brand-new BAIC showroom in Tubli recently, this powerful SUV is designed to conquer the most challenging terrains while offering a luxurious and comfortable ride.
At the heart of the BJ80 lies a robust 3.0T V6 all-aluminium engine equipped with twin turbochargers, delivering impressive power and efficiency. The ZF 8-speed automatic transmission ensures smooth shifting and quick responsiveness. The vehicle’s electronically controlled part-time four-wheel drive system and pro-chassis provide superior handling and adaptability across various terrains. Its increased torsional strength and rear axle widening by 80mm enhances driving stability.
The BJ80’s interior is equally impressive, boasting a stylish and well-organised cabin. The exclusive dual-tone body paint and double-colour upholstery add a touch of luxury, while the spacious rear cabin offers added comfort with electric recline options. Beyond aesthetics, the vehicle is built with practicality in mind, featuring high ground clearance, a high angle of passage and a five-star safety rating.
As an off-road SUV it proves itself as a versatile vehicle that can seamlessly adapt to any driving scenario, with its multiple driving modes, including Eco, Comfort and Sports.
“The BJ80 is ready to tackle any challenge, whether it’s navigating urban streets or exploring uncharted territories,” said a BAIC spokesperson.
As a subsidiary of Khalil Ebrahim Kanoo, International Motor Trading Agency (IMTA) represents renowned automotive brands and offers a wide range of vehicles, including passenger cars, SUVs and commercial vehicles.
IMTA, the exclusive dealership for BAIC in Bahrain, says it is ‘proud’ to offer the BJ80 to automotive enthusiasts. Located in Tubli, the dealership invites visitors to experience the BJ80 firsthand and book a test-drive.
To celebrate the launch, BAIC is offering introductory offers on all models for a limited period, including VAT-inclusive pricing, free insurance, registration, rust proofing, window tinting, a 5-year/100,000km service package and a 7-year unlimited kilometre warranty.
