Changan is targeting rising demand for plug‑in and range‑extender models through staggered launches across Europe, Australia and South Africa.

Changan chose the Mondial de l’Auto 2026 (Paris Motor Show 2026) to present its global brand and product line-up, including the European debut of the Nevo brand and three new models bound for Mzansi

Overview

  • Changan has publicly confirmed PHEV and range‑extender (EREV/REEV) derivatives across its Avatr, Nevo and Deepal brands as part of international rollouts.
  • Avatr Australia said it is actively considering PHEV and EREV entries for the Australian market and expects to share local details in coming months.
  • Deepal will offer S05 and S07 plug‑in/range‑extender variants in Europe with a right‑hand‑drive S05 due soon in the UK, and Inchcape Australia says it will announce local S05/S07 specifications shortly.
  • Jameel Motors has approved the Nevo Q05 and Q06 range for South Africa and confirmed the Deepal S07 REEV with a planned rollout in the third quarter of 2027.
  • The powertrains pair large batteries and electric motors with a small petrol generator so cars can deliver long electric ranges (often 150–300km) and very large combined ranges, a feature that follows strong 2026 growth in Australian PHEV/EREV sales and could broaden buyer appeal.
