AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)04/12 Report--
The Beijing BJ90 large SUV is one of the most expensive models of the Chinese brand. Its most powerful feature is that it can almost be called the domestic version of Mercedes-Benz GL. The car is built on the old GL-class chassis and is equipped with 3.0T and 4.0T engines provided by Mercedes-Benz. However, due to factors such as high official pricing, Beijing BJ90 has rarely become a car purchase choice for ordinary consumers. But recently, a large number of news on the Internet pointed out that the new Beijing BJ90 car, which has been on the market for only four months, has been sold at a 50% discount.
A car dealer source said, "Beijing BJ90 factory car, package logistics guidance price 989000, now 5X discount batch sales into a board discount."
"BAIC shell Mercedes-Benz core, Mercedes-Benz GL same engine", another car dealer quoted, the national five emission standard special price of 480000!
From the discount information given by BAIC dealers, the current Beijing BJ90 new car does have a relatively large discount, equivalent to 50% discount selling. The price system of the car also confirms that there are great problems with the product itself and official pricing.
As early as 2016, news of the new BJ90 car in Beijing has spread all over the Internet, with news that the car has been used as a purchase by government departments and the military and is not open for sale to the market. It was not until December 2019, when Beijing Cross-country officials officially announced the sale of the Beijing BJ90, that the mass production of the large-scale SUV based on the Mercedes-Benz GL was finally confirmed.
There are two models in Beijing BJ90, including 988000 yuan for 3.0T government version and 1.288 million yuan for 4.0t government version. At present, there are only five versions, and officials say the sixth version will be available within 2020. Judging from the name of the "government version", we can see that the car is not aimed at ordinary consumers.
Mercedes-Benz elements can be seen everywhere in Beijing BJ90! The front face of the new car adopts the family design of Beijing BJ series SUV, and the huge chrome-plated five-hole front grille is very recognizable. The side shape is burly, its length, width and height are 5171/1995/1860mm, wheelbase is 3100mm, positioning is large SUV.
The interior of Beijing BJ90 can see many old Mercedes-Benz GL design elements, including the overall shape of the center console, the control knob and the control area near the central armrest box. The biggest difference is that Beijing BJ90 is equipped with a larger central LCD screen and a new multi-function steering wheel with BAIC LOGO.
Beijing BJ90 embodies the "Mercedes-Benz pedigree" in many ways. For example, the keys of Beijing BJ90 are basically the same as the keys of the old Mercedes-Benz GL, and there is a big Mercedes-Benz logo in the center. Open the engine cover of Beijing BJ90, and there is also a big Mercedes-Benz logo on the hood directly in front of you.
The new car is equipped with 3.0T and 4.0T engines provided by Mercedes-Benz, of which the 3.0T V6 engine has a maximum power of 333 horsepower and a maximum torque of 480N ·m, while the 4.0T V8 engine has a maximum power of 422 horsepower and a maximum torque of 600N ·m, and is equipped with a full-time all-wheel drive system. In terms of suspension, Beijing BJ90 uses the same rear double-wishbone independent suspension as the old Mercedes-Benz GL.
Data show that Beijing BJ90, which went on sale in December 2019, sold 212 units wholesale that month, with a total of 258 units for the whole year. Sales of the BJ90 in January 2020 were 2.
There are many factors contributing to the current market predicament of Beijing BJ90, the biggest problem is brand and pricing. After replacing the BAIC LOGO, the BJ90 does not have a gap with the price of the original Mercedes-Benz GL or GLS, with the same price of 1 million, so it is difficult to persuade consumers to buy a "Mercedes-Benz" with BAIC LOGO. Therefore, only a price reduction can attract the attention of consumers, coupled with the five factors, leading to the current 50% discount sell-off.
Of course, this car is not for ordinary consumers, some netizens think, "this car, suitable for you know to buy, ordinary people will not buy!"
