The Beijing-based manufacturer only offers the BJ90 in a pitch black exterior with 20-inch wheels and a black interior, with no room for customization. For its part, the interior does begin to show its age with many components inherited from the Germans, including the steering wheel, analog instrument cluster, climate controls, glove box, etc. Although, the Chinese version sports a new infotainment screen 10.4-inch car that takes up a larger portion of the center console, while high-quality materials, including wood accents and genuine leather upholstery, create a luxurious environment.
