CS75 Plus
Value-packed Chinese compact SUV with turbocharged punch and generous standard kit · 5 seats
REPRESENTATIVE PHOTOMART PRODUCTION / PexelsOur verdict
7.2 / 10The Changan CS75 Plus delivers a compelling proposition in the UAE compact SUV market, offering a turbocharged 2.0-litre engine with 233 hp, panoramic sunroof, 360-degree cameras and ventilated seats as standard — all for around AED 116,000. The sole FWD-only Sport trim keeps the buying decision simple, and the industry-leading 6-year/250,000 km warranty from Union Motors addresses lingering concerns about Chinese brand after-sales support. Refinement and long-term reliability data lag behind established Japanese rivals, but the value-per-feature ratio is hard to argue with at this price point.
Who it's for — UAE buyers who want maximum features-per-dirham in a compact SUV and are comfortable with a Chinese brand backed by a generous warranty; families seeking a spacious, tech-loaded alternative to mainstream Japanese crossovers.
