MiscellaneousAll-New Beijing Jeep B60 Debuts
Posted by mike on 2008/4/21 15:53:58 (1736) reads

I fully admit that I don't know a whole lot about Beijing Jeep or the vehicles they produce. But after reading about what they debuted at the 2008 Beijing Auto Show, I'm pretty sure that the only thing in common between our beloved Jeep brand and Beijing Jeep is the name.

They recently debuted the B60 - a civilian version of a Beijing Jeep military vehicle. I'm sure everyone who reads this is thinking what I'm thinking - it's probably best left unsaid (until you guys hit the comment section).

The civilian version has a 4 cilinder 2.7 liter petrol engine with 110kw and 235nm, top speed is 150km/h and 0-100km takes 23 seconds. Not too fast but who cares, it's all about the looks and it will problably be very cheap, I think (hope) around 12.000 dollar.
Head on over to thetycho.com for more details and photos.

UPDATE: 4/22/08 - thetycho.com just posted an article and pics of the "B40 Sport Jeep" as well.

H3 + FJ = an underpowered pile of ugly?

maybe it gets good mpg? If so, give it a face lift and make sure it functions like a jeep should.

Looks like the mongrel offspring of a Land Rover and a Hummer to me. Not sure which is mom and which one's pop, but its got the Land Rovers eyes.

If you ask Chrysler that's not a Jeep, it doesn't have a 7 slot grill. LOL.

Beijing Jeep also produces the Jeep 4000/4700 (Jeep Grand Cherokee) and up until 2005 produced the Jeep 2500/2700 (a facelifted -- albeit not pretty -- Jeep Cherokee).
