A Heritage of Innovation – BAIC

Founded in 1958 and ranked 162nd on the Fortune Global 500, BAIC combines more than six decades of automotive expertise with cutting-edge design and technology. The BJ40 Pro marks a new chapter for BAIC in Bahrain, blending rugged capability with next-generation digital features.

Industry-First “Five-Screen” Cockpit

At the heart of the BJ40 Pro’s interior is an industry-first five-screen layout: a 10.25″ LCD instrument cluster, 12.8″ central display, 12.8″ co-driver entertainment screen, a 9″ streaming rear-view mirror and a 1.92″ start-button screen—delivering seamless interaction and panoramic visibility .

Power and Performance

Under its hood sits a 2.0 T turbocharged engine mated to an 8-speed ZF automatic gearbox, producing 242 hp and 386 Nm of torque. With a 2760 mm wheelbase and 220 mm ground clearance, the BJ40 Pro offers both urban agility and off-road prowess. A dedicated 400 W power outlet in the trunk ensures campers can power accessories on the go.

Safety and Comfort

Advanced driver-assist systems—including adaptive cruise control, blind-spot detection, lane-keep assist, automatic parking and a 360° panoramic camera—combine with six airbags and RMI anti-rollover protection, ensuring peace of mind in every environment

BJ30 Hybrid: Efficiency Meets Everyday Versatility
