About the BAW brand
BAW, short for Beijing Automobile Works, is a Chinese vehicle manufacturer with a long history in both civilian and military vehicle production. Founded in 1953 and headquartered in Beijing, BAW was one of China's earliest automotive companies, originally producing utility and off road vehicles for government and commercial use. Today, BAW has repositioned itself as a modern new energy vehicle brand, focusing on rugged electric utility models and compact EVs designed for both urban and off road environments.
After undergoing ownership restructuring in the 2020s, BAW now operates independently from BAIC Group, allowing greater flexibility in design, technology sourcing, and market strategy. The company has since introduced a new generation of electric vehicles under the "Yueye" and "Calorie" names, which combine compact dimensions with distinctive styling and practical range for urban commuting. These models appeal to consumers seeking affordable, characterful electric transport with functional capability.
BAW leverages partnerships with Chinese battery suppliers and drivetrain specialists to integrate modern lithium ion systems, intelligent control modules, and fast charging support into its platforms. The brand's new electric vehicles are developed with modular chassis designs that can accommodate both passenger and light commercial applications, giving BAW the flexibility to serve diverse market segments while maintaining cost efficiency.
With production facilities in Shandong and other regions, BAW is rebuilding its presence in China's competitive EV landscape through a focus on design differentiation and functional electrification. Its blend of heritage, practical engineering, and new energy innovation positions BAW as a niche but growing player in China's evolving electric mobility market.
