Spy Shots showing the all-new Beijing Auto BJ40L, the four-door version of the Beijing Auto BJ40. The BJ40L debuted on the Shanghai Auto Show in April and will be launched on the Chinese car market in October.
The BJ40 will be available with two four-cylinder petrol engines: the good old 2.4 with 143hp and 217nm, and a ‘new’ Saab-developed 2.0 turbo with 204hp and 280nm.
