“The launch of Deepal‘s third model within just 10 months represents our strong commitment to bringing innovative and sustainable mobility solutions to the UAE,” said Ashok Khanna, chief executive of Al Tayer Motors. Xiao Feng, general manager of Changan’s Middle East and Africa division, called the vehicle a reflection of the company’s focus on convenience, sustainability and safety.
