The recent price hikes by Changan and other automakers stem from changes introduced in the 2025–26 budget. A new NEV (New Energy Vehicle) adoption levy has been imposed, ranging from 1% to 3% based on engine displacement.
This tax has impacted the entire locally assembled automobile sector. As a result, manufacturers like Changan have revised their pricing structures to compensate for the added costs. While a few companies have chosen to absorb some of the burden, most have passed the increases—either partially or fully—onto consumers.
