KARACHI
\nMaster Changan Motors Limited has become the first automaker in Pakistan to initiate vehicle export under the new Auto Industry Development and Export Policy (AIDEP 2021-26).
\nUnder the new auto policy, all OEMs were required to initiate vehicle exports to help develop the local industry and expand the export capability of the country.
\nThe country\u2019s first export unit under the new policy is the Changan Oshan X7. The Oshan X7 is also the country\u2019s first vehicle to be launched through a global RHD premiere earlier in March 2022.
\nPakistan is the only country outside of China to produce the latest model of Changan Oshan X7. The global premier was viewed across all RHD markets digitally, resulting in the start of global exports of the futuristic vehicle.
\nThe first unit was exported to a market in the Oceania region. The announcement was made at a ceremony at Master Changan\u2019s plant in Karachi. The company\u2019s CEO together with the management witnessed the vehicle being loaded in a container as it was shipped off to the port.

\n\u201cThe Changan Oshan X7 is the first of many more vehicles to be exported under our vision to stay Future Forward, Forever and the Auto Industry Development and Export Policy (AIDEP 2021-26)\u201d.
\nMaster Changan is not only building vehicles of international level build quality, design and safety features but has also stayed true to its vision of becoming the RHD Export hub of Changan vehicles from Pakistan to the world.
\nChangan Oshan X7 was launched in March 2022 and features class-leading specifications. The vehicle is a package of head-turning looks and best-in-class performance. Equipped with the newest generation 1.5L Turbo engine, a 7-speed DCT Transmission and intelligent features like adaptive cruise control, collision warning and auto braking. Oshan X7 churns out an incredible 300 Nm torque and 185 hp output.
\nPakistan is Changan\u2019s first and only RHD manufacturing base and is helping the brand expand globally. The state-of-the-art plant was completed in a record time of just 13 months and now has the capacity to produce 50,000 vehicles annually.
\n\u201cMaster Changan is our first RHD production base and we are very happy to export our RHD Oshan X7 SUV from Pakistan\u201d, Steven Zhao \u2013 Vice CEO Master Changan Motors Limited remarked.
