Baojun E300 Plus: which version to buy
The Baojun E300 Plus catalogue lists one generation and one version. The version name in the data is 40 hp. Production of this generation starts on 2022-08-01 and has no end date in the data. Body type is Mini 3-doors. Powertrain is Electro fuel, Automatic gearbox with 1 speed, FWD. Output is 40 hp (29 kW) and 150 Nm. Top speed is 100.
The Baojun E300 Plus catalogue lists one generation and one version. The version name in the data is 40 hp. Production of this generation starts on 2022-08-01 and has no end date in the data. Body type is Mini 3-doors. Powertrain is Electro fuel, Automatic gearbox with 1 speed, FWD. Output is 40 hp (29 kW) and 150 Nm. Top speed is 100. There is no second engine, no second gearbox, and no restyle as a separate generation. A buyer who wants this model is choosing 40 hp or not choosing the model at all.
That is the whole choice set. The rest of this text is how the numbers on 40 hp compare with themselves and what they do not measure.
Which Baojun E300 Plus version to buy
Buy 40 hp if a Mini 3-doors electric runabout with 40 hp, 150 Nm, FWD, and a 100 top speed matches the job. Do not look for a petrol twin, a higher-output electric twin, or a later generation in this dataset: modifikaciy is 1, pokoleniy is 1.
Arithmetic on the given figures for 40 hp:
- 150 Nm ÷ 40 hp = 3.75 Nm per horsepower.
- 40 hp ÷ 29 kW ≈ 1.38 hp per kW (the two power labels are the same output in two units).
- Gearbox ratio count is 1; there is no extra ratio to “buy.”
- Drive is FWD only; there is no AWD line to pay for.
What extra money cannot buy here, because it is not in the data: a second displacement, a second cylinder count, a boost option, a second body, a second generation, or a measured 0–100. Those fields are not measured or null. If a shop lists two Baojun E300 Plus trims with different names, this catalogue still has a single spec row: 40 hp.
Generations: what changed (and what did not)
1 generation (from 2022-08-01, ongoing)
1 generation is the only generation. Years: start 2022-08-01, stop not measured (null — still open). Body: Mini 3-doors. Version count: 1 (40 hp). Restyling is not listed as a separate generation.
There is no generation 2 to compare, so there is no “new generation gained X hp” story. Year-to-year change inside 1 generation is also not in the data: 40 hp starts 2022-08-01 and has stop null. Suspension labels are the same at both axles: Independent, spring front and Independent, spring rear. That is the chassis description you get with this one version.
If the question is “which generation to buy,” the answer is 1 generation, because it is the only one.
Engine specs: Baojun E300 Plus 40 hp
Search terms such as Baojun E300 Plus engine and specs map to this single row.
| Version | hp | kW | Nm | Displacement | Fuel | Cylinders | Layout | Boost | Gearbox | Speeds | Drive |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 40 hp | 40 | 29 | 150 | not measured | Electro | not measured | not measured | not measured | Automatic | 1 | FWD |
Do not fill cylinders, layout, or boost from general knowledge. In this row they are not measured. Fuel is Electro, not a tank fuel. Displacement is not measured (no litres), so power per litre cannot be calculated. That calculation is allowed only when both hp and displacement exist; here displacement is missing, so the ratio is not measured.
Engine position, induction, compression, bore and stroke, and supply system are not measured. The buyer is not choosing among cylinder layouts. The buyer is choosing this electric 40 hp unit or walking away.
Torque relative to power is the useful comparison that is possible: 150 Nm on 40 hp is 3.75 Nm/hp. That is a high torque-to-power ratio in the arithmetic of this table, which is typical of an electric motor labelled Electro, but the only comparison inside the model is this one number pair.
Performance, top speed, and mpg
| Version | 0–100 | Top speed | City use | Highway use | Combined | CO2 | Eco class |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 40 hp | not measured | 100 | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured |
0–100 is not measured. Do not invent a sprint time. Top speed is 100. That is the only performance number you can use to decide if 40 hp is enough: if a 100 maximum is too low for the roads you use, this version does not fit, and there is no hotter version in the catalogue.
Mpg is not measured. City, highway, and combined consumption are all not measured. Tank volume is not measured. For an Electro version that is expected, but the catalogue still records the gap instead of implying a figure. Range, kWh, and charging times are not measured. A buying decision that needs a consumption or range number cannot be closed from this dataset.
Dimensions, weight, and ground clearance
| Version | Kerb weight | Gross weight | Ground clearance | Tank | Wheels |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 40 hp | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured |
Weight per horsepower is not measured, because kerb weight is not measured. Gross weight is not measured. Ground clearance is not measured. Wheel sizes are not measured. Body type is Mini 3-doors — that is the size class you are buying, without millimetres in this data.
Without kerb weight, you cannot compute kg/hp for 40 hp. Without wheels and clearance, you cannot compare ride height or tyre packages. Suspension is specified: Independent, spring front and Independent, spring rear. Brakes front and rear are not measured.
Reliability and problems
This dataset does not include failure rates, recalls, or problem lists. Reliability figures are not measured. Common-problem claims would be outside the data and are not used here. The mechanical description that is present for 40 hp: Electro fuel, Automatic 1-speed, FWD, Independent, spring at both ends, production from 2022-08-01 with no stop date.
If a reliability screen is the buying gate, this catalogue cannot pass or fail 40 hp; it can only show the spec row.
What the extra money would buy (if there were a second version)
There is no second version, so there is no extra-money delta inside the model. Hypothetical upgrades people look for, checked against the data:
- More power: not offered. Ceiling is 40 hp / 29 kW.
- More torque: not offered. Ceiling is 150 Nm.
- Faster top speed: not offered. Ceiling is 100.
- Another gearbox: not offered. Automatic, 1 speed only.
- Another drive: not offered. FWD only.
- Another body: not offered. Mini 3-doors only.
- A later generation: not offered. 1 generation only.
The “which version” answer stays: 40 hp, 1 generation, Mini 3-doors, from 2022-08-01, Electro, Automatic 1, FWD, 40 hp, 150 Nm, top speed 100. Every other numeric field a buyer usually uses to split trims is not measured.
