BAIC B40e Trailmaster rEV can do up to 152 km on battery power

BAIC Philippines distributor United Asia Automotive Group Inc. (UAAGI) has just confirmed the initial details and specifications of the upcoming B40e Trailmaster 4x4 rEV. Set to make its official debut at the 2026 Manila International Auto Show (MIAS) later this week, the electrified 4x4 combines the capabilities of an off-road vehicle with the efficiency and practicality of a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrain.

Serving as the B40e's beating heart is the Advanced Range-Extended Electric Vehicle system. While the brand has yet to reveal its official output figures, BAIC Philippines did mention that the B40e can travel up to 152 km, based on the CLTC cycle on battery power alone. When paired with a full tank of gasoline, however, the BAIC B40e Trailmaster rEV has a combined range of more than 1,200 km.
