Vehicle model
BAW Gamme BAW - utilitaires ou VUS
BAW's utility and SUV range forms the brand's historic core. It is rooted in off-road-focused 4x4s such as the BJ212, a military-inspired vehicle produced for decades and recognized for its ruggedness, mechanical simplicity and ease of repair. These vehicles target demanding uses: difficult terrain, agricultural work, professional applications and fleets, rather than refined road comfort. Over the generations, BAW has modernized its SUVs and utility vehicles while keeping this durable off-road DNA, and today offers modified and specialized configurations. On the tire and wheel side, these models generally favor modest-diameter wheels with tall-sidewall tires that are rugged and suited to off-road use; the bolt pattern and exact size must be validated according to the version. In Quebec, dedicated winter tires are essential to maintain traction and safety on snow and ice.

Pour des pneus et jantes, la gamme BAW est très hétérogène. Les 4x4 et utilitaires tout-terrain emploient typiquement des roues de diamètre modeste avec des pneus à flancs plus hauts, favorisant robustesse et conduite hors route, tandis que les mini-véhicules électriques urbains utilisent de petites roues et des pneus étroits orientés rendement et faible coût. Sans chiffres précis confirmés, retenez qu'il faut toujours valider l'entraxe (bolt pattern), le diamètre de jante, le déport et l'indice de charge propres à chaque modèle et version. Au Québec, des pneus d'hiver dédiés restent essentiels et obligatoires pour ces véhicules, particulièrement pour les VUS tout-terrain et les utilitaires électriques sur chaussée glacée.
