Template:Infobox vehicles The Karin BeeJay XL is a four-door midsize SUV in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.
Design
Grand Theft Auto V
The car features a retro utilitarian design theme, which seems to be inspired by the Japanese styling found on the Toyota FJ Cruiser, but with a flatter, less aggressive appearance and regular second-row doors (as opposed to suicide doors). The rear bumper and fascia bears some resemblance to the first generation Toyota RAV4, while the grille resembles that of a Hummer H2.
The front end of the BeeJay XL is very bulky, mostly due to the large bumper with a chromed line on the bottom, turning lights and a "KARIN" marking on the front intake. The front area of the vehicle is represented as a large grey bar with four circular headlights and the grille between these. The hood features a grey vent for the engine and has a rounded body, matching the car's front end. The sides of the SUV lack extra formations and has angled mudguards, with small stepsides between them. The window channels are in a black finish and are easily diffferentiated from the car's pillars, where the primary color takes place. The rear end of the vehicle is practically dominated by the read compartment door and features two sets of circular LED lights, with the outer ones placed in the car's main body and the inner ones in the rear compartment door, along with reversing lights located between those lights. From the rear wheel fenders to the rear end, a concave line surrounds the rear section of the vehicle. The rear bumper is, like the front one, depicted with chromed details on the sides and rear, also containing the two circular exhausts at the bottom.
The BeeJay XL comes in a two-tone paintjob, with the primary one surrounding the entire vehicle and the secondary one on the roof.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto V
The BeeJay XL has a good top speed, however it leaves much to be desired from acceleration. Due to it's heavy weight, some oversteer is noticeable, and because of this, caution must be taken when cornering at high speeds. It is also shown that it can sustain heavy amounts of damage. In terms of pick up and go, the Beejay XL is sub par in acceleration for an SUV but maintains the same level of speed from it's competition such as the Gresley and the Granger. When traveling at high speeds there is a notable amount of traction loss compared to its counterparts, yet it seems to have stiffer suspension allowing the vehicle to grab a little more air than the rest.
The BeeJay XL is powered by a V8 engine, as suggested by the engine cover, which is coupled to a 5-speed gearbox in a front engine, all wheel drive (60% front and 40% rear) layout. Like its real life counterpart, it has a large, noisy engine.

Trivia
General
- The word "BeeJay" is a double entendre. In one hand, it is a clear pun on its real-life equivalent, the Toyota FJ Cruiser (in the past, the BJ was the diesel-engined model of the original Toyota FJ). On the other hand, it references a blowjob.
- "BeeJay" may also be a reference to the name of the real-life Hummer midsize SUV.
- The car's ability to sustain heavy damage may be inspired from real-life Toyota Land Cruiser's (especially the original FJ) exceptional reliability, longevity, and toughness.
- The default radio stations for the BeeJay XL are FlyLo FM or Soulwax FM.
Grand Theft Auto V
- Originally, the BeeJay only had the basic modifications available, but a few body modifications were added in an update.
- In the mission Complications, for some reason, when the player arrives to the destination where Michael tells Franklin to crash the SUV, Jimmy's BeeJay XL makes a more louder and aggressive sound. This is most likely done to dramatize the following sequence.
- In the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game, the player cannot keep Jimmy's BeeJay XL after Complications, as it will eventually despawn. This was identified as a bug, and fixed in the enhanced versions of the game.
- If the player has bought the Offroad Bumper and the front of the car is deformed enough, part of the bumper will remain in its original place and simply "float" in front of the car.
