Baseline = Infotainment/maps | Limited = Infotainment+ | Partial = Multiple systems | Advanced = Most systems | Full = Full-vehicle updateable
Battery Suppliers = primary traction battery suppliers across the model lineup.
Power Inverter Tech = power electronics technology used (silicon carbide SiC vs silicon), which affects efficiency and thermal performance.
IGBT = Conventional | SiC = High-efficiency | GaN = Next-generation, pilots
About Beijing
Beijing is an automotive brand owned by BAIC Group, one of China's largest state owned vehicle manufacturers. Originally known for producing combustion powered sedans and SUVs under the Beijing Auto name, the brand has undergone a major transformation in recent years to focus on new energy vehicles and intelligent mobility. Headquartered in Beijing, the company's products are developed and built by BAIC BluePark New Energy Technology, the same division that supports other BAIC EV brands such as ARCFOX.
Beijing's electrification strategy emphasizes accessible, family oriented electric vehicles designed for both private and fleet use. The brand's EV lineup includes models such as the Beijing EU5, EX3, and EH3, which deliver competitive range, safety, and connectivity features at affordable prices. These vehicles are powered by BAIC's self developed electric drivetrains and battery systems, often integrating technology from long time partners such as CATL and Huawei to enhance performance, charging efficiency, and user experience.
BAIC positions the Beijing brand as a bridge between mainstream and premium segments, offering reliable EVs with refined styling, advanced driver assistance, and connected cockpit technology through its proprietary Darwin 2.0 smart platform. This system supports over the air updates, intelligent navigation, and adaptive energy management that improves efficiency across driving conditions.
With a strong domestic manufacturing base and support from BAIC's R&D network, the Beijing brand is expanding its EV presence across China's urban centers. Its goal is to make electric mobility practical and attainable for a wide consumer base while reinforcing BAIC's role as a key contributor to China's national new energy vehicle strategy.
