Introducing my first impressions of the Baic B40 4x4 - and its from China. @BAICglobal have introduced the B40 Plus into the South African Market. This is one of those vehicles that draws a lot of attention when you are driving and a lot of South Africans cant help but come and ask you about it.
I drove the City Hunter variant, which comes with a 2L Turbo Petrol engine (From the Golf GTI) and its performance was pretty astounding. Nervous about a large Petrol vehicle, I was actually blown away by its consumption (When driven calmly).
The petrol engine kicks out 160kW at 5500 r/min while the diesel pushes out 110kW at 4000 r/min and 350Nm of torque between 1800 r/min and 2800 r/min.
The BAIC B40 Plus range starts from R549 500 and goes up to R629 500 for the top-of-the-range offering.
Overall I was incredibly impressed in my first 2 days driving the B40. While it is an off-road vehicle - and yes it strongly resembles the Jeep - it comes with incredible luxury and comfort. This together with a great drive and solid off-road capabilities make it an impressive choice for anyone looking for a daily drive, 4x4.
