Due to the Beijing-Benz joint venture Beijing Auto and Daimler Mercedes-Benz has, and Daimler owns a 12% stake in BAIC Motor, the parent company of the Beijing Automobiles brand, BAIC was able to acquire the specs of the Mercedes-Benz SUV as the foundation for the BJ90.

Originally seen in 2015,[3][4] the BJ90 debuted at an event in Beijing in August 2017 and later went on sale.[5] Compared to the GL-Class, the BJ90 is 52 mm (2.0 in) taller, 61 mm (2.4 in) wider, 51 mm (2.0 in) longer,[6]

Offered in five trim levels, the BJ90 is currently priced from 710,800 yuan to 998,000 yuan (101,600 to 142,780 USD - July 2020 exchange rate).[7]
