Changan Deepal expands global presence with new app and vehicle launches

Changan Automobile is expanding its Deepal brand through new digital services and vehicle introductions across multiple markets. In Indonesia, the company has launched the Deepal App, designed for owners of the S05 and S07 models. The application allows users to monitor vehicle status, check battery levels, and control cabin features remotely in real time.

In South Africa, Changan has introduced the Deepal S05 REEV, a range-extended electric vehicle. The model features a 1.5-litre petrol engine acting as a generator for a 27.28 kWh LFP battery, providing a combined range of over 1,000 km. The vehicle is equipped with a 15.4-inch infotainment screen and augmented reality head-up display.

Additionally, Deepal has filed a patent in China for an integrated foot bath system. The proposed design includes a retractable basin located under the front passenger seat, featuring anti-sloshing structures and a disinfection assembly to prevent water from spilling during vehicle movement. The patent aims to integrate foot care technology without significantly compromising interior space.
