Changan, a Chinese automotive brand that is present in Indonesia under the auspices of the Indomobil Group, officially opened preorders for the Deepal S05 and Deepal S05 REEV through a prebook scheme.
With the presence of the above model, it emphasizes Changan's commitment to providing modern mobility solutions for consumers, as well as marking a new chapter in the development of electrified vehicles in the national automotive market.
Changan Indonesia CEO, Setiawan Surya, said the Deepal S05 and Deepal S05 REEV pre-book program is Changan's next tangible step in presenting the latest product series that will soon be launched in the country.
"We see Indonesia as one of the very important markets in Changan's global expansion journey, so every product we introduce is part of a long-term commitment to grow together with Indonesian consumers," he said, when met in Kuningan, Jakarta, Tuesday, June 30.
According to him, the presence of two variants of the Deepal S05 which have different technologies, reflects Changan's commitment to providing more diverse electrification solutions that are relevant to the needs of Indonesian consumers.
Changan Deepal S05 is the first SUV in Indonesia that comes with the option of BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle) and REEV (Range Extended Electric Vehicle) technology. Deepal S05 REEV is also the main highlight because it is the first REEV technology vehicle officially introduced to the Indonesian market.
This innovative technology combines a pure electric drive with an Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) that serves specifically as a generator to charge the battery. This approach provides a solution for consumers who want the thrill of driving an all-electric car without having to worry about the limitations of charging infrastructure when traveling long distances.
At the same time, Changan also presents Deepal S05 with a pure electric drive option. The presence of these two options expands the choice for consumers, in choosing the electrification technology that best suits their daily mobility needs.
The main difference between the two models lies in the source of its driving energy. Deepal S05 relies entirely on a 68.8 kWh capacity Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery with a range of up to 470 km (NEDC). Meanwhile, Deepal S05 REEV combines a 27.28 kWh battery with a 1,500 cc gasoline engine that serves as a generator to automatically recharge the battery when needed. With this system, Deepal S05 REEV is capable of delivering a combined range of up to more than 1,100 km.
In terms of performance, the Deepal S05 REEV is equipped with a rear-mounted electric motor that produces a maximum power of 160 kW and a torque of 320 Nm, so it is able to provide instant and responsive acceleration. In EV mode, this vehicle is also capable of covering a distance of up to 170 km (NEDC), allowing most of the daily mobility needs to be carried out without having to activate the gasoline engine. Meanwhile, the Deepal S05 produces a maximum power of 200 kW and a torque of 290 Nm, presenting a responsive performance with instant acceleration typical of electric vehicles.
There is still no official price, but this model will be priced at Rp500 million. During the pre-book period, consumers who pre-order Changan Deepal S05 and Deepal S05 REEV have the opportunity to get exclusive benefits worth up to Rp20 million, free all risk insurance for 1 year, and special price offers for Battery Lifetime Warranty, according to the applicable terms and conditions.
"We invite the Indonesian people to take advantage of this prebook opportunity and be the first to own the Changan Deepal S05. We believe that the innovations we present will answer the needs of modern mobility while bringing a smarter and more efficient driving experience for consumers," concluded Setiawan Surya.
