The 2026 Deepal G318 is a mid-size extended-range electric (EREV) off-road SUV engineered for adventure tourism fleets, government field operations, and lifestyle rental programs. It combines a 1.5T range extender with front and rear dual motors producing 316kW (430PS) / 572N·m, delivering 5.9-second 0–100km/h acceleration with up to 190km CLTC pure electric range and 1,200km+ combined range. The model is actively exported to the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia) and CIS markets in LHD configuration, with RHD production planned for Australia, NZ, and the UK via Changan’s Thailand plant.
Powertrain: 1.5T range extender (110kW) + dual motors, combined 316kW / 572N·m, 4WD, 0–100km/h in 5.9s
Battery & Range: 35.07kWh LFP “Golden Bell” battery; 174–190km CLTC EV range; 1,200km+ combined; 30–80% fast charge in 15–30 min; 60L tank
Dimensions: 5,125 × 2,025 × 1,895mm (WB: 2,880mm), 5-seat, 240mm max ground clearance
Off-Road: True 4WD with front + rear differential locks, ET all-terrain system, air suspension + CDC + Active Magic Carpet (top trims), 3.2m turning radius with tank turn
True 4WD with Dual Differential Locks: Unlike many soft-road SUVs in its class, the G318 features mechanical front and rear differential locks and a true 4WD system with an ET all-terrain mode selector. Combined with 240mm ground clearance and air suspension, it delivers genuine off-road capability for desert, mountain, and unpaved fleet operations.
Segment-Exclusive Air Suspension + CDC + Active Magic Carpet: Top trims feature a triple-comfort system (air suspension, CDC adaptive dampers, and Active Magic Carpet chassis control) — typically found on premium luxury SUVs — reducing body roll, absorbing rough terrain, and improving rear-seat comfort for long-distance passenger transport.
Confirmed RHD Production for Global Markets: Changan has confirmed right-hand drive production of the G318 at its new Thailand factory for export to Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and the UK. The RHD engineering timeline is estimated at 12–15 months, with Australian market entry positioned as a rival to the Toyota Prado and GWM Tank 500.
Critical — rating claims require verification: Some export marketing materials claim a “Euro NCAP 5-star” rating for the G318. However, no independent Euro NCAP, ANCAP, or NHTSA test results have been published as of October 2026. Safety content is tiered: 6 airbags (base) or 8 airbags (top trims). The body features a high-rigidity structure (claimed 45,000 N·m/deg torsional rigidity) with triangular reinforcement behind the crash box. Battery passed C-EVFI fire safety five-star certification. Fleet buyers targeting regulated markets must verify crash safety compliance independently — do not rely on unverified NCAP claims.
LHD available now; RHD confirmed for future production. LHD units actively exported to UAE (Dubai dealers active), Saudi Arabia (Almajdouie Motors), CIS (Belarus, Russia), and Latin America. RHD production confirmed via Changan’s Thailand plant for Australia, NZ, South Africa, and UK — timeline TBD.
Overseas naming: Deepal G318 (global), Shenlan G318 (export channels).
