Changan officially launched the Deepal S05 for the Indonesian market, while providing special prices for the first 500 consumers. Deepal S05 comes with a choice of Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) and Range Extended Electric Vehicle (REEV), and is sold at special prices starting from Rp. 509 million.
"This car has been sold in more than 68 countries with a total cumulative sales of more than 240 thousand," said Director of Sales Changan Auto Southeast Asia Sebastien Li at the launch at the Royal Glass House, Park Hyatt, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, July 21.
Regarding the price, the Chinese manufacturer gave special prices for the first 500 consumers in the country, and then returned to the normal price. This was announced directly by Changan Indonesia CEO Setiawan Surya.
"Changan Indonesia not only presents bev and reev technology. But also offers comfort in a vehicle. And today we announce special prices for Deepal S05 during the pre-book period," said Setiawan Surya on the same occasion.
The official price of the Deepal S05 BEV Plus is sold at a normal price of Rp529 million, and a special price of Rp509 million. Then, for the BEV Max variant, the normal price is Rp559 million and the special price becomes Rp539 million, while for the REEV Max variant, the normal price is Rp619 million and the special price is in the figure of Rp599 million.
Deepal S05 is the first SUV in Indonesia that is offered with the choice of BEV and REEV technology on one vehicle model. REEV technology combines a pure electric drive system with an internal combustion engine (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 electric car completely without having to worry about the limitations of charging infrastructure when traveling long distances. Deepal S05 comes with balanced and sturdy body proportions. This SUV has dimensions of 4,620 mm in length, 1,900 mm in width, 1,600 mm in height, and is supported by a wheelbase of 2,880 mm which is claimed to be the longest in its class.
The modern and sporty impression is immediately reflected thanks to the application of 18-inch rims and aerodynamic body design that produces a drag coefficient of only 0.25 Cd. Its exterior character is even more prominent on the streets thanks to advanced technological details, such as Frameless Door Windows, Electric Hidden Door Handles, LED Star Flame Tail Lights and High Mounted Stop Lamp Intelligent Interactive Light.
Entering the cabin, the Deepal S05 presents a spacious and luxurious atmosphere, strengthened by the presence of a 1.9 m² panoramic roof equipped with an electric sunshade. The center of attention in the dashboard area is directed at the main 15.4-inch touchscreen with 2.5K Ultra Clear resolution. This screen is equipped with Sunflower Screen technology, where the monitor can move automatically up to 15 degrees towards the driver or passenger to provide a more ergonomic and interactive viewing angle.
The comfort in the front row is spoiled by the Royal Comfort Seat feature on the front passenger seat. This feature is equipped with leg rest, nap mode for resting, and memory seats. Deepal S05 is designed to support the active mobility of the family. This SUV provides a total of 35 storage spaces that are functionally spread throughout the cabin area to put small items.
For carrying large luggage, the capacity of the rear trunk is very spacious and flexible, from 492 liters can be expanded to 1,250 liters of Trunk. Of course, the space to fit the trunk must fold the rear passenger seat. Interestingly, specifically for the Deepal S05 BEV variant (pure electric), consumers get an additional 159 liters of storage space in the form of a frunk (front trunk) or front trunk under the hood, maximizing the utility of the space that conventional cars do not have.
The Deepal S05 BEV variant is designed for maximum total regenerative performance. Carrying a 56.12 kWh battery, the BEV variant can travel as far as 470 kilometers on a full charge. Its performance sector is also more powerful with a power burst of 200 kW or the equivalent of 268 hp, although its torque is at 290 Nm.
Meanwhile, the Deepal S05 REEV variant takes a different approach as an intelligent transition car. Its battery capacity is cut to a much smaller size, namely only 27.28 kWh with a pure electric mode cruising range of around 170 km.
However, its main advantage lies in the presence of a 1,500 cc gasoline engine that acts purely as an internal generator (range extender) to recharge the battery when running. This synergy makes the total mileage can shoot far beyond the BEV variant without making the driver worry about running out of battery in the middle of the toll road.
Interestingly, even though the horsepower is smaller at 160 kW (214 hp), the burst of instant torque of the REEV variant is actually much more swollen, reaching 320 Nm. The different battery capacity automatically affects the duration of charging, for charging AC current at home to full condition, the BEV variant takes a long time up to more than 9 hours.
Meanwhile, REEV only takes about 4 hours because of its compact battery size. On the other hand, on fast DC Fast Charging from 30 percent to 80 percent, the BEV variant is superior because it is completed in 15 minutes, while the REEV variant is a little longer at 20 minutes.
