Beijing Jeep Corporation

Beijing Jeep Corporation (BJC) was an automobile manufacturer based in Beijing, China. It was established as a joint venture between Beijing Automotive Industry Holding Co., Ltd. (BAIC) and American Motors Corporation (AMC), later acquired by Chrysler. The company was one of the earliest and most prominent automotive joint ventures in China, producing Jeep-branded vehicles for the Chinese market. Its formation marked a significant step in the opening of China's automotive industry to foreign investment and technology transfer. BJC manufactured a range of SUVs and off-road vehicles, including the iconic Beijing Jeep 212 (BJ212) and later models based on Jeep designs. The joint venture underwent several ownership changes, eventually becoming part of the Beijing Benz Automotive Co., Ltd. (BBAC) joint venture with DaimlerChrysler. The Beijing Jeep brand is now defunct, but its legacy continues in BAIC's off-road vehicle line and the broader Chinese auto industry.
