Inchcape Philippines, the exclusive distributor of Changan in the country, has announced the official introduction of the Changan Eado Plus on March 25, 2026, expanding the Chinese automaker’s presence in the local market with a new entry in the subcompact passenger sedan segment.
Originally introduced in China in 2012, the Changan Eado was developed to meet the rising demand for stylish and efficient sedans. At launch, the model quickly built a strong following for its blend of comfort, technology, and performance, helping establish its reputation in one of the world’s most competitive automotive markets.
In the Philippines, the Eado name first appeared in 2025 through the Changan Eado EV460, which entered the market as a fleet vehicle. Its arrival was made possible through EV Taxi Corp’s partnership with Inchcape Philippines and Changan, giving local consumers and industry observers an early look at the nameplate’s potential in the country.
This time, Inchcape Philippines is bringing in the Changan Eado Plus for the wider automotive market, where it will stand as the brand’s sole sedan passenger vehicle in the local lineup. The model is also expected to serve as one of the key volume drivers for Changan in the Philippines, reflecting the brand’s intent to compete more aggressively in a segment that continues to attract sedan buyers seeking practicality, comfort, and value.
The Changan Eado Plus will be available in two variants, Lite and Luxe, aimed at sedan intenders looking for a well-rounded daily driver. According to the company, the model combines stylish and sophisticated design, generous cabin space, and intelligent driving technology, making it a feature-packed and value-for-money option for Filipino motorists.
Globally, Changan is recognized as one of the largest and most established automotive brands in China. The company highlights 160 years of global industrial expertise, including 65 years dedicated to automotive innovation. Its research and development footprint spans China, Italy, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States, forming a broad collaborative network designed to support regional and global product development.
Changan Philippines remains committed to delivering technologically advanced products as it sharpens its focus on becoming a provider of intelligent and low-carbon mobility. Customers and enthusiasts can see the Changan Eado Plus up close starting March 25 at Changan dealerships nationwide.
