TheBaojun Yep (Chinese:宝骏悦也;pinyin:Bǎojùn Yuèyě) is abattery electriccrossover city car manufactured bySAIC-GM-Wuling (SGMW) since 2023 under theBaojun brand.[2] "悦也" literally translates as "joy also" or "happy together", is the homophone of "越野" which means "offroad".
In February 2023, the Chinese joint-venture SAIC-GM-Wuling introduced a new small city car in the form of a combination of a three-door hatchback with features reminiscent of large off-road vehicles such as theSuzuki Jimny.[3] The result was the Baojun Yep crossover.[4]
The Yep is distinguished by its angular silhouette with clearly defined wheel arches, black bumpers, and sill covers, as well as an imitation spare wheel on the trunk lid.[5] The vehicle also uses full LED lighting, with a characteristic arrangement of stripes on the front covers.[5] In addition, despite its small external dimensions, the Yep is a four-seater car that can accommodate two passengers in each row of seats,[5] which has been achieved with a length of less than 3.4 m (11 ft).[6]
The Yep is the first SUV with a 300 mm (12 in) by 256 mm (10.1 in) LCD screen on the rear exterior. The shape is similar to a wristwatch and is used to display messages, emojis, pictures or animations to other drivers on the road.[7][8][9]
The Yep was created for the dynamically developing electric car market in China in mind, with the start of sales scheduled for May 2023, just after the official presentation to the public at the 2023Shanghai Auto Show.[5]
A 2-door pickup truck version withfour-wheel drive (4WD) is in development.[10]
The Yep is powered by an electric motor located at the rear axle, which develops 67 hp and 140 Nm of maximum torque. It allows the driver to accelerate up to a top speed of 100 km/h (62 mph). The iron-phosphate battery allows the user to drive about 303 kilometers on a single charge in urban conditions according to theCLTC measurement cycle.[11]
