The Ministry of Industry and IT of China has posted some images of the next-generation BAW BJ212. The off-roader has retained its recognizable body design but ended up with a completely overhauled, much more modern interior.
The new BJ212 features a snorkel pipe, a winch and a fender-mounted floodlight on the left-hand side. The spec sheet mentions it having more ground clearance than the predecessor (see video), which had 245 mm (9.6 inches).
According to AutoHome, the model will no longer ship with a 2.4-liter Mitsubishi engine rated at 211 PS (208 hp / 155 kW). Instead, it will utilize a 2.0-liter Dongan Power unit paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission for 252 PS (249 hp / 185 kW).
As for the interior, it is all-new and features a large LCD infotainment display. For those of us who are not fond of touch-based controls, the buttons all around are physical.
