"China's Best Family SUV" - Why the Changan Deepal S07 is Turning Heads at Sandicliffe

If you’re searching for a family-friendly electric SUV that delivers premium quality without the premium price, the Changan Deepal S07 has just received one of the strongest endorsements possible.

In its latest review, Autocar didn’t hold back, calling it:
“China’s best family EV.”

That’s not just praise, it’s a statement that positions the Deepal S07 as a benchmark for value, practicality and everyday usability.

At Sandicliffe, we think UK drivers are about to discover exactly why.

Autocar’s Verdict: Built for Families, Designed to Impress

Autocar’s review highlights what really matters to modern drivers, comfort, usability and value, and the Deepal S07 delivers on all fronts.

Their conclusion? This is a “good value and gripe-free” electric SUV that stands out in an increasingly crowded market.

For families, that means:

  • Space where you need it

  • Technology that actually helps

  • A smooth, refined driving experience

It’s not just another EV, it’s one designed around real life.

Why It’s Being Called “China’s Best Family SUV”

So what earns the Deepal S07 such a bold title?

1. Exceptional Value for Money

Starting at around £39,990, the Deepal S07 undercuts many rivals while offering more as standard.

From premium materials to advanced tech, you’re getting a high-spec SUV without the high price tag.

2. Family-First Practicality

This is where the S07 truly excels.

Autocar highlights its usability and thoughtful design, making it ideal for:

  • School runs

  • Weekend trips

  • Everyday errands

With a spacious cabin, generous legroom and flexible storage, it’s built to handle busy family life with ease.

3. Impressive Standard Equipment

Unlike many rivals, where options quickly add up, the Deepal S07 comes well-equipped from the start.

Expect features like:

  • Large central touchscreen infotainment

  • Advanced driver assistance systems

  • Premium interior finishes

It’s a complete package, not a base model that needs upgrading.

4. Smooth, Comfortable Electric Driving

With a 75kWh battery and up to ~295 miles of range, the S07 offers:

  • Effortless daily driving

  • Quiet, refined performance

  • Confidence on longer journeys

For families switching to electric, it makes the transition feel simple and stress-free.

A Standout Alternative to Established Brands

If you’ve been considering:

  • Tesla Model Y

  • Hyundai Ioniq 5

  • Kia EV6

The Deepal S07 deserves a place on your shortlist.

Why? Because it delivers comparable quality and practicality, often for less.

Autocar’s verdict reinforces what many drivers are beginning to realise:
this isn’t just a new brand, it’s a serious contender.
