The 2026 Changan Qiyuan Q06 (marketed internationally as the Nevo Q06) is the newest mid-size SUV from Changan's Qiyuan sub-brand, built on the automaker's SDA Tianshu digital architecture. Unveiled on July 15, 2026, it went on sale in China on September 23, 2026 in six versions — five battery-electric trims and one range-extended (EREV) trim — all on an 800V silicon-carbide platform with 6C ultra-fast charging and a roof-mounted LiDAR. It slots between the smaller Q05 and the larger Q07 in the lineup, wearing a sloping "fastback" SUV roofline and a full-width light bar front and rear. Official guide prices run from CNY 139,900 (~$20,986) to CNY 169,900 (~$25,486), and Changan also offers limited-time launch prices that are CNY 4,000 (~$600) lower, from CNY 135,900 (~$20,386) to CNY 165,900 (~$24,886) (the end date has not been published). Changan said the Q06 took 35,000 orders within 24 hours of the launch. The dual-motor version headlines the range with 443 hp, while the 700 km CLTC rating belongs to the 245 kW single-motor versions.
Performance & Specs
The Qiyuan Q06 BEV lineup has two single rear-motor outputs — 225 kW (306 PS / 302 hp) in the 602 Premium and 602 Smart, and 245 kW (333 PS / 329 hp) in the 700 Smart and 700 Ultimate — plus a dual rear-motor version, the 670 Dual-Motor Smart, rated at a combined 330 kW (449 PS / 443 hp). That top BEV keeps power routed exclusively to the rear axle through two motors rather than adopting true all-wheel drive, a layout Changan says drops the mechanical differential and improves stability. CnEVPost gives a 0-100 km/h time of 7.1 seconds for the single-motor versions and 4.8 seconds for the dual-motor version. The EREV 1600 Dual-Motor Smart pairs two rear motors, for a combined 270 kW (367 PS / 362 hp), with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine rated at 72 kW (98 PS / 97 hp) that acts purely as a generator, and it reaches 100 km/h in 5.8 seconds. All versions ride on an aluminum front double-wishbone and rear five-link suspension.

Dimensions & Practicality

|---|---|
| Width | 1,970 mm |
| Height | 1,670 mm |
| Wheelbase | 2,940 mm |
Despite the sloping fastback roofline, Changan says the Q06's cabin achieves 91.7% space utilization thanks to a flat rear floor and a long 2,940 mm wheelbase, with 1,041 mm of rear headroom. The rear seats recline electrically up to 145 degrees with a 28-point massage function, and the front passenger seat has a zero-gravity mode. Cargo space is rated at 782 liters in the BEV (734 liters in the EREV) behind the rear seats, expanding to 2,200 liters with them folded, and the BEV adds a 196-liter front trunk. The Q06 rides on 20-inch wheels.

Charging & Battery
Every Qiyuan Q06 rides on an 800V silicon-carbide electrical architecture with 6C-capable LFP battery packs. The BEVs use a 66.02 kWh pack in the 602 versions (602 km CLTC, 494 km WLTP) and an 80.02 kWh pack in the 700 versions (700 km CLTC, 574 km WLTP) and the 670 Dual-Motor Smart (670 km CLTC, 549 km WLTP). CnEVPost and Chinese reports put the 30-80% DC top-up at 9 minutes on the BEVs, among the fastest charging speeds in this price class. The EREV uses a much smaller 28.39 kWh LFP pack, good for 200 km CLTC (164 km WLTP) of pure-EV driving before the 1.5-liter generator engine starts, and Changan quotes a combined range of 1,600 km.

Design & Interior
The Q06's exterior follows the sloped "coupe-SUV" silhouette that has become common among Chinese mid-size electrics, with pronounced fenders, a slanted bonnet line, split headlights, a single taillight unit and semi-hidden door handles. The styling was created by Klaus Zyciora, a Changan vice president and former head of design at Volkswagen. Inside, the dashboard carries a 15.6-inch touchscreen above a block of physical controls, with a small LCD instrument cluster behind a D-shaped steering wheel, a head-up display, a wireless phone charger and a column-mounted gear selector. Changan says soft materials cover 90.6% of the cabin, and the ambient lighting spans 4,450 mm. Other features include a retractable roof-mounted screen, a 15.6-inch rear entertainment screen, a 9.5-liter built-in fridge, and ventilated, heated and massaging seats throughout the cabin on all but the base trim.
Technology & Features
The headline tech story is Changan's Tianshu (SDA) assisted-driving suite, built around a roof-mounted LiDAR that is fitted across the range rather than reserved for a flagship. CnEVPost reports that every trim comes with SDA Pilot Pro on a Horizon Robotics J6M chip (128 TOPS), and that buyers can upgrade to SDA Pilot Ultra for CNY 9,900 (~$1,485), which adds a 256-line LiDAR, 560 TOPS of computing power and urban navigation assistance. Gasgoo describes the Ultra system as a one-stage end-to-end model with full-scenario navigation and voice-commanded lane changes, using 11 cameras, 3 millimeter-wave radars and 12 ultrasonic sensors. The chassis pairs an all-aluminum front double wishbone with a rear five-link layout, tuned with Changan's UK team.
Safety & ADAS
Because LiDAR ships standard on every trim rather than as a paid option, the Q06's driver-assistance hardware is more consistent across the lineup than most rivals in its price bracket. Automatic emergency braking can bring the car to a stop from up to 135 km/h, and an Automatic Emergency Steering function operates between 60 and 120 km/h. Full crash-test ratings had not been published as of this writing.

Pricing & Availability
Changan launched the Qiyuan Q06 in China on September 23, 2026 with six versions. Official guide prices are CNY 139,900 (~$20,986) for the 602 Premium, CNY 149,900 (~$22,486) for the 602 Smart, CNY 159,900 (~$23,986) for the 700 Smart, CNY 169,900 (~$25,486) for the 700 Ultimate, CNY 169,900 (~$25,486) for the 670 Dual-Motor Smart and CNY 151,900 (~$22,786) for the EREV 1600 Dual-Motor Smart. Changan also offers limited-time launch prices of CNY 135,900 (~$20,386), CNY 145,900 (~$21,886), CNY 155,900 (~$23,386), CNY 165,900 (~$24,886), CNY 165,900 (~$24,886) and CNY 147,900 (~$22,186) respectively (the end date has not been published), which are CNY 4,000 (~$600) below the guide price on every trim. The 670 Dual-Motor Smart is listed at the same guide price as the 700 Ultimate. The Q06 is confirmed only for the Chinese domestic market. Changan's Qiyuan/Nevo brand already exports the smaller Q05 SUV and A06 sedan to markets including Thailand, but no export timeline or pricing has been announced for the Q06. USD figures use 1 USD = CNY 6.6664 (ECB, 28 October 2026).
How It Compares
At CNY 139,900 (~$20,986), the Qiyuan Q06's entry trim undercuts the XPENG G6, the Changan Deepal S07 and the BYD Song Ultra EV as listed in our catalogue by roughly $5,000 to $10,000, while offering standard LiDAR that none of those three include at their base price. The G6 and Song Ultra EV both trail the Q06's 700 km CLTC range, and neither pairs a dual-motor output with an 800V/6C charging architecture at anywhere near the Q06's starting point. Current China prices tell a closer story, though: CarNewsChina lists the Song Ultra at CNY 129,900-179,900 (~$19,486-26,986), the Q06's main rival in China, so on current Chinese prices the two overlap. The Deepal S07 remains the closer in-house comparison for range-extender shoppers, since it already offers a proven 1,100 km EREV total range, while the Q06 EREV claims 1,600 km combined. Catalogue prices reflect different model years and dates.
- Standard LiDAR across the range, with an optional SDA Pilot Ultra upgrade for CNY 9,900 (~$1,485)
- 800V silicon-carbide platform with 6C charging delivers a 30-80% top-up in about 9 minutes, among the fastest in its price class
- Six versions (five BEV and one EREV) starting at CNY 139,900 (~$20,986) cover both pure-EV and range-anxious buyers from one model line
- Launch prices are limited-time offers CNY 4,000 (~$600) below guide price, with no published end date
- Dual-motor version pairs strong 443 hp output with rear-only drive rather than true AWD traction
The 2026 Changan Qiyuan Q06 is a well-equipped mid-size SUV aimed squarely at buyers who want flagship-level charging speed and driver-assist hardware without a flagship price tag. Standard LiDAR across the entire range and an 800V/6C charging architecture are genuine differentiators at CNY 139,900 (~$20,986) to CNY 169,900 (~$25,486), and the spread of six versions gives shoppers real flexibility between pure-EV range and EREV peace of mind. The catch is that the dual-motor version's 443 hp comes with rear-only drive rather than AWD traction, and the cheapest launch prices are limited-time offers. For buyers cross-shopping the XPENG G6 or BYD Song Ultra EV, the Q06 is a strong value pick.
