Deepal Reaches 500,000 Global Deliveries

Shanghai – Deepal, the new energy vehicle (NEV) brand under China’s Changan Automobile, has achieved a significant milestone with global deliveries surpassing 500,000 units. The company continues to make rapid progress in the competitive EV market, driven by strong monthly sales and aggressive expansion plans.

In May alone, Deepal sold 25,521 electric vehicles worldwide — a 78% year-on-year increase and a 27% jump compared to April 2025. The surge in sales underscores growing demand for Deepal’s smart, tech-driven EVs.

Currently, six models are available under the Deepal lineup: SL03, S07, G318, L07, S05, and the newly launched A09. One of the brand’s standout offerings is the Deepal S09, a large six-seater SUV introduced with advanced features and next-gen technology.

The S09 is available in five trim levels and is the first vehicle equipped with the HarmonySpace 5 Smart Cockpit System. Notable features include a 21.4-inch 3K ceiling-mounted rear entertainment screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio and tilt adjustability up to 75 degrees. The infotainment system includes dynamic panoramic sound, a dedicated assistant for children, customizable user scenarios, and a unique “spatial magic cube” interface. It also comes integrated with Huawei’s Qiankun Intelligent ADS 3.3 driver assistance system.

Deepal plans to upgrade the S09 to Huawei’s ADS 4 system by the end of this year. Built on the WEDA architecture, ADS 4 promises to reduce latency by 50%, improve traffic efficiency by 20%, and decrease hard braking incidents by 30%.

Looking ahead, Deepal has ambitious global expansion plans. It aims to open 300 new experience centers across China in 2026 and has already entered Southeast Asian, Middle Eastern, and most recently, European markets.

At the Deepal Brand Night event in May, CEO Deng Chenghao announced the brand’s global vision, “Smart Lead 2030.” The strategy sets a target of 2 million worldwide vehicle sales by 2030 and outlines plans to launch 30 new models under the Changan-Deepal banner.

With a strong product lineup, cutting-edge technology, and aggressive market expansion, Deepal is positioning itself as a rising global player in the fast-evolving electric vehicle industry.
