First Changan Deepal Ready for Sale in Denmark
CHANGAN EUROPE PRESS INFORMATION
The Changan Deepal S05, a mid-size electric SUV, is arriving at Danish dealerships in the coming weeks. The official launch will take place in April.
Importer Andersen Motors has now announced pricing and established a nationwide network of authorized Changan dealers, who will host the official launch of the new Changan Deepal S05 on the weekend of April 18–19.
The Changan Deepal S05 is a new mid-size electric SUV with a length of 4.6 meters, a WLTP range of 485 km, and fast charging up to 200 kW. The model is available in three versions—two with rear-wheel drive and 272 hp, and one with all-wheel drive and up to 408 hp.
Prices start at 264,990 DKK for the most affordable PRO version, which includes a full safety package, a 69 kWh LFP battery, an interior with synthetic leather on the seats, doors, and other surfaces, power-adjustable front seats, a heat pump, a 360-degree camera, automatic door locks with keyless entry and automatic locking, and a 15.4-inch screen from which most of the car’s functions are controlled.
The Changan Deepal S05 is also available in a MAX version for 284,990 DKK, featuring standard equipment such as heating and ventilation in the front seats, heated steering wheel and windshield, power tailgate, head-up display, automatic tilting of the infotainment screen, a passenger seat with lumbar support and reclining function, and the option to add a panoramic glass roof with sunshade for 10,000 DKK.
The top-of-the-line version with MAX equipment and all-wheel drive costs 334,990 DKK. In addition to the equipment from the MAX version with rear-wheel drive, the 4WD version features an additional 163-hp electric motor on the front wheels, bringing the maximum output to 408 hp and ensuring an acceleration time of 5.5 seconds. On this version, a panoramic glass roof and a detachable tow hitch are standard equipment. All three versions are approved to tow a trailer weighing up to 1,600 kg.
The Changan Deepal S05 has already undergone Euro NCAP safety testing and received the maximum 5-star rating. The vehicles come with a comprehensive warranty of eight years or up to 200,000 km on the high-voltage battery, electric motor, and charger, and a five- or seven-year warranty with a mileage limit of 120,000 or 160,000 km, depending on the component type, for the rest of the vehicle.
The electric car is designed to function as an auxiliary power source thanks to the option of inserting a so-called V2L adapter into the external charging port, allowing you to connect 230-volt electrical appliances with a power consumption of up to 6,000 watts.
Charging from 10% to 80% battery capacity can be completed in 23 minutes using a fast charger with a minimum capacity of 200 kW.
Later this year, the slightly larger Changan Deepal S07 model will follow, featuring an 80 kWh battery and a range of 500 km.
Changan is one of China’s largest automakers, with global sales of nearly three million vehicles projected for 2025. The company aims to establish a presence in all European markets, and Denmark is the 13th European market to introduce Changan. In Norway, Changan was introduced last summer and has already received orders for over 1,500 vehicles since its launch—all with all-wheel drive, which is preferred by most Norwegian buyers of electric vehicles in this size class.
Since 2003, Changan has operated a European design center in Turin, Italy, and a research and development center in Birmingham, England, since 2010. This local expertise, combined with extensive testing and validation in Europe, enables Changan to tailor its products precisely to the needs of European customers.
So far, 18 dealers have signed agreements with Andersen Motors to become authorized Changan dealers and service centers. Andersen Motors is currently building a comprehensive parts warehouse in Køge that can supply dealers with most parts on a day-to-day basis. The Changan factory also has a central spare parts warehouse in the Netherlands, with several other European warehouses currently under construction.
Andersen Motors has been responsible for importing Suzuki passenger cars for many years and last year entered into an agreement to import and sell Farizon electric vans, which were introduced to the Danish market earlier this year.
