ChangAn Automobile has announced its global sales results for the first half of 2025, achieving a total of 1.355 million units sold worldwide—marking the company’s best H1 performance in nearly eight years. The surge in demand is primarily attributed to the strong growth of its New Energy Vehicle (NEV) lineup, as well as the continued popularity of key models like the CS75 series.
Al Tayer Motors has officially launched the all-new DEEPAL S05 in the UAE, marking the second model introduction from Changan’s EV brand within just four months. Following the earlier arrival of the larger S07, the S05 aims to offer compact, connected, and cost-effective electric mobility to UAE drivers.
The S05 is available in two variants – a fully electric version (EV) with a claimed range of 460 km, and a range-extended electric vehicle (REEV) variant, offering 160 km of electric range plus a fuel-based generator that stretches the total range to over 900 km.
Al Tayer Motors has just signed an agreement to distribute the electric vehicle brand Deepal in the UAE.
First introduced in 2022, the Changan CS75 Plus recently received a minor facelift and some new features for the 2024 model. The CS75 Plus is in a very competitive segment, probably the most competitive segment. Every major brand offers a compact SUV, which the Japanese and Korean brands have a stronghold on.
The CS75 Plus entered the market strongly, with loads of features, back in 2022 and gained traction quickly with its competitive pricing.
