Singapore, 27 August 2025 – China Changan Automobile Group Co., Ltd., the newly formed automotive giant, has officially launched following the strategic integration of Changan Automobile, Chenzhi Group, and Changan Auto Finance. Anchored by Changan Automobile’s 41 years of manufacturing expertise, the Group is now focused exclusively on shaping the future of mobility.
Under its Vast Ocean Plan global strategy, the Group is targeting 5 million vehicle sales annually by 2030, including 3 million new energy vehicles (NEVs). Overseas markets are expected to contribute 30% of total sales, powered by its core brands – CHANGAN, AVATR, and DEEPAL – which will continue to operate independently under the China Changan Automobile Group umbrella, enhancing their ability to serve customers worldwide with greater focus, agility, and innovation.
In Singapore, DEEPAL entered the market in March 2025 with its flagship electric SUV, the DEEPAL S07, at its showroom at 281 Alexandra Road – the second in Southeast Asia. The line-up will soon expand later this year with the DEEPAL S05 compact SUV and the DEEPAL E07, Singapore’s first electric SUV-meets-utility vehicle. The DEEPAL E07 will make an exclusive preview at the Singapore Car Expo this September.
Complementing DEEPAL’s presence, AVATR made its first appearance a few months later with the AVATR 11, showcased through a pop-up at UOB Plaza 2, further strengthening the Group’s presence in Singapore’s fast-growing EV market.
Speaking on the Group’s vision, a company representative said: “For over 160 years, we’ve been driven by innovation and engineering excellence. Today, China Changan Automobile Group is building on that legacy to create smarter, greener, and more connected mobility solutions for drivers around the world.”
Today, China Changan Automobile Group employs approximately 110,000 people worldwide, with a presence in 103 countries and 21 manufacturing bases. Its integrated value chain spans vehicle and component manufacturing, sales, financial services, logistics, after-sales care, and motorcycle operations, to deliver smarter, more sustainable, and connected mobility solutions for customers worldwide.
