Beijing Auto Industrial Corporation (BAIC), the owner of the Beijng Auto brand, bought the rights to the Saab 2.0 turbo and Saab 2.3 turbo from GM in 2009, along with the rights to the platforms of the Saab 9-3 and first generation Saab 9-5.

The engines will continue in the facelifted BJ80L and price range will be about the same.

Sales of the BJ40L and its 3-door brother BJ40 have been reasonable strong. Naturally, they are often compared to the Jeep Wrangler but the BJ40 is actually slightly smaller, and far less expensive. Price of the four-door Wrangler in China starts at 423.000 yuan.
