Changan Automobile does not build many cars like the Chana X70A: a 5-door wagon with 1.5 L I4, built from 2017 to 2022 as electrification stopped being an experiment and the crossover took every market.
How it came about
The Oshan X70A (长安欧尚X70A), sometimes known as Changan X70A and the Oushang X70A, is a compact CUV produced by Changan Automobile under the Oshan or originally the Chana sub-brand.
The hardware
Under the skin sits 1.5 L I4. The gearbox is a 5-speed manual. The layout matters: a front engine drives the rear wheels, the classic proportion — long bonnet, cabin set back — that most people picture when they picture a sports saloon or a grand tourer. The wheelbase is 2750 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
Family and rivals
On a showroom list of its day it stood against the Tesla Model 3, the Chevrolet Bolt, the Ford Escort. Its Changan Automobile stablemates include the Avatr 06 and the Avatr 07.
