The awards are based on the actual performance of overseas distributors and are directly linked to sales results. In 2025, the Kazakhstan distributor ranked among the leading international partners within Changan Group. In Kazakhstan, the brand not only maintained its position among the country’s top ten automotive brands but also strengthened it by moving up one place in the rankings. Total sales reached 11,260 vehicles, representing a 32.3% increase year-on-year.

“These awards are, above all, a recognition of the dedication and professionalism of the entire Changan Kazakhstan team and our regional partners. We continue to see strong and growing demand for the Changan brand, reflected both in our sales performance and in the brand’s position in the local market. It is particularly rewarding to see our achievements recognised across the wider Changan Group. We will continue to strengthen the brand’s presence, expand the model lineup, and further enhance the customer experience,” said Denis Kolomatskiy, Director of Changan Kazakhstan.
