Master Changan Motors Unveils The All-New Changan Alsvin – Pakistan’s 1st Euro-5 Smart Sedan
Karachi – 11th December, 2020: Master Changan Motors Limited has proudly unveiled the latest generation, Pakistan’s first Euro-5 Smart sedan car, the Changan Alsvin, at a press conference held in Karachi on 11th December, 2020 at the Marriott Hotel.
The Changan Alsvin is one of the most anxiously awaited sedans by not only car fanatics but mass-market consumers. The design language of the Changan Alsvin expresses it as a ‘smart sedan’ due to its unmatched technology, comfort, and luxury all while providing the nimbleness of a hatchback, and that too at an accessible price – truly standing by its motto – “Drive Your Dreams”.
Danial Malik – CEO of Master Changan Motors – explained some of the exclusive features, “The Alsvin brings the Pakistani consumers an impressive array of automotive technology that is being introduced for the first time in Pakistan these include; Pakistan’s first Euro5 engine, Dual- Clutch Automatic Transmission, Start-Stop Technology (SST), Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), and a 7 inch Human Machine Interface (HMI) that allows the user to reconfigure multiple functions such as air conditioning, lighting, and locks.”
He added, “The Alsvin will provide the best value in its class with features that previously did not exist in the subcompact sedan segment such as the Electronic Sunroof, Cruise Control, Powerful Projector headlamps, Super Electronic Power Steering (Super EPS), reverse camera coupled with parking sensors and dynamic guidelines and heated side view mirrors.” It is pertinent to mention that the vehicle will be very safe due to its high tensile body, dual airbags, seatbelts, and the modern projector headlamp which doesn’t require an additional fog lamp.
The Alsvin is powered by a Bluecore VVT 1.37L (95 hp & 135nm torque) or 1.5L (105 hp & 145nm torque) engine, which is complemented by a beautiful front grill giving it an aggressive yet elegant exterior, while the interior has a sporty cockpit that is balanced with a plush ivory beige cabin. The Alsvin will surely be Pakistan’s most technologically advanced subcompact sedan, which promises an effortless driving experience.
Master Changan Motors is offering the Alsvin in three variants. The first is the 1.37-litre smart manual transmission variant. Alongside this, the car has 1.5 litres 5-speed Dual-Clutch Automatic Transmission (DCT); and at the top of the line, will be the luxurious “Lumiere” edition with 1.5-litre DCT packed with features customers in this segment could previously only have dreamt of.
Shabbir Uddin – Director Sales & Marketing – explaining the marketing strategy commented, “For long, customers had no other option but to opt for a bare bone hatchback or a feature packed yet used imported vehicle. Now Changan is offering a complete sedan that is loaded with features and brings them within the reach of consumers. Simply put, the Alsvin is designed by a world class team that pushes the status quo, for people that are sick of the status quo.”
The first locally produced Alsvin is all set to be rolled off the assembly line within a few days, from the company’s state-of-the-art plant that not only brings international standards to the local market but will also be the RHD export hub for Changan vehicles across the world.
