In Brazil, it has already appeared with the Chana.

Advanced Technology by Changan
Besides impressive performance, the E07 stands out for its advanced technology, including a semi-autonomous driving system and a sophisticated interior with a central 14-inch multimedia screen. Safety is another strong point, featuring autonomous emergency braking and a night vision camera.
The Coupe SUV Turns Into a Pickup
The Changan Qiyuan E07 innovates with a unique design that allows the vehicle to transform from an SUV into a pickup. This transformation is achieved through a retractable rear window and an innovative bed cover. In SUV mode, the vehicle presents a conventional appearance with a sealed trunk. However, when more cargo space or pickup functionality is desired, the rear window slides inward, revealing the bed.
The transition from SUV to pickup is emphasized by the rear cover that, instead of opening downwards as in many SUVs, rises vertically in the traditional style of pickups. This mechanism not only adds versatility to the vehicle but also maintains the elegant aesthetics and futuristic design. The bed, after transformation, offers a generous capacity of up to 850 liters, allowing for the transportation of a significant amount of cargo.
Launch Forecast
Changan plans to launch the Qiyuan E07 in China in the second quarter of 2024, with optimistic expectations of introducing the brand to the Brazilian market, challenging high-performance vehicles and consolidating its position as a sales leader in the country. The arrival of the E07 in Brazil could transform perceptions of electric vehicles by combining luxury, performance, and innovative technology.
The Changan Qiyuan E07 is more than a simple addition to the market of pickups; it is a statement of innovation and excellence from Changan. With its imminent arrival, it promises not only to compete but also to raise the standards for electric vehicles by combining style, power, and advanced technology.
