ChangAn Auto records best H1 sales in 8 years, driven by 48.8% NEV growth, global expansion, and a sharpened focus on the Middle East.

Dubai: ChangAn Automobile has posted its strongest first-half sales in nearly eight years, achieving 1.355 million global vehicle sales between January and June 2025. This growth is underpinned by a significant surge in new energy vehicle (NEV) demand, global market penetration, and consumer trust in its evolving product lineup.

NEV sales alone surged to 450,000 units—a 48.8% increase year-on-year—confirming ChangAn’s solid position in the smart mobility space. The CS75 series also continues to thrive, now crossing 2.8 million units sold globally.

The brand’s performance in May 2025 was especially noteworthy, with total sales reaching 224,310 units (+9% YoY). Key contributors included NEVs at 94,828 units (+70%), DEEPAL at 25,521 units (+78%), and AVATR at 12,767 units (+179%). DEEPAL’s global deliveries exceeded 500,000 units as of June 10, and the model debuted in Norway in July, marking a strategic move into Europe.

The Middle East and Africa remain pivotal to ChangAn’s global growth strategy. With rising demand for sustainable and intelligent vehicles, the company is expanding its NEV portfolio and service footprint across the region.

Xiao, General Manager of ChangAn Middle East and Africa, said, “Our H1 performance highlights the strength of our global strategy and innovation-led vision. The Middle East is embracing NEVs, and we’re investing significantly to deliver products tailored to regional needs.”

With more local partnerships and service expansion on the horizon, ChangAn is set to further embed itself in the regional mobility ecosystem. Its accelerating NEV portfolio, global reach, and customer-first approach position the company as a transformative player in the future of clean, connected transportation.
