About the Changan CS35 Plus
The Changan CS35 Plus debuted at the 2018 Chengdu Auto Show as a more premium, tech-focused successor to the original CS35. It features the 'Blue Whale' 1.4-litre turbocharged engine, which provides a significant power boost over the base 1.6-litre unit and is paired with a wet dual-clutch transmission. The interior is defined by a dual-screen layout and soft-touch materials, reflecting Changan's push to compete with European subcompact crossovers. While primarily a city-focused SUV, its suspension is tuned for durability on varied road surfaces found in its primary markets of China, Russia, and the Middle East.
