Vehicle model
BAIC Gamme BAIC - électrique/hybride
BAIC's electric and hybrid range is driven by its electromobility subsidiary BAIC BluePark (formerly Beijing Electric Vehicle), which oversees the premium Arcfox brand and the electric versions of the Beijing brand. It includes fully electric vehicles, hybrids and range-extender systems (REEV/EREV), such as the BJ40e. BAIC is among the Chinese pioneers of the electric car and targets urban buyers concerned with energy efficiency as well as growing export markets. This segment is not sold in North America. On the tire and wheel side, electric models often favor low-rolling-resistance tires to preserve range; in Quebec, certified winter tires would remain essential, respecting the exact dimensions specific to each model.

Tire and wheel compatibility
BAIC n'étant pas distribuée au Québec, les dimensions de pneus et jantes correspondent à des spécifications chinoises ou de marchés d'exportation. La gamme va du petit SUV urbain (jantes de diamètre modeste, souvent 16 à 18 pouces) aux modèles tout-terrain des séries BJ (jantes robustes, pneus plus hauts à flancs renforcés). Les entraxes (bolt patterns) suivent généralement des standards courants pour SUV, mais doivent être vérifiés au cas par cas faute de données locales fixes. Pour tout véhicule roulant au Québec, les pneus d'hiver homologués sont obligatoires et essentiels; en l'absence de tailles précises confirmées, il faut se fier aux indications exactes du véhicule (portière, manuel).
