Changan confirms strong demand in Kazakhstan’s used-car market
13/10/2026
Changan vehicles are in demand not only at authorised dealerships but also among buyers looking for cars on the used-car market. According to a Kolesa.kz study covering January to July 2026, three models from the brand — the CS35 MAX, CS55 Plus and CS75 Plus — ranked among the top five for the number of enquiries from prospective buyers on the automotive platform.
For Changan Kazakhstan, this is an important indicator of interest in the brand’s vehicles at different stages of their lifecycle, from buying a new car to searching for used-car listings.
Three Changan models among the five most sought-after
According to Kolesa.kz, the CS35 MAX ranked second for the number of unique calls and messages from prospective buyers of new cars. The CS55 Plus came fourth, and the CS75 Plus fifth.
At the same time, Changan is strengthening its position in the new-car market. From January to July 2026, 11,927 Changan vehicles were sold in Kazakhstan, up 101.84% on the same period last year. Changan ranked fourth among automotive brands by sales volume.
The CS55 Plus was among the best-selling models, with 4,687 units sold. Sales of the CS35 MAX totalled 3,776 units. Both models ranked among the country’s top 10 best-selling new cars.
A further signal from the used-car market
Changan models have also been highlighted in Digital Business coverage of vehicle resale prospects in Kazakhstan. In one review of used-car listings in Almaty, a 2026 Changan CS35 MAX was sold less than a week after appearing in the publication’s selection. This example shows that the model also attracts potential buyers on the used-car market.
What this means for Changan owners
When choosing a car, buyers consider more than just price, equipment and comfort. They also think about its resale prospects. In this context, strong interest in Changan models on automotive platforms is an additional positive signal.
For Changan Kazakhstan, it is important that the brand’s vehicles are well represented both in new-car sales figures and in rankings of buyer interest. This creates favourable conditions for the continued development of the market for used Changan models and for strengthening buyer confidence.
