Changan’s official dealer in Uzbekistan has held a special handover for five Changan CS55 Plus owners at the Ichkari cultural space and museum in Tashkent, replacing the usual dealership ceremony with a family day in the atmosphere of the old city. Organizers said the venue was chosen deliberately to link the capital’s cultural heritage with the brand’s modern technologies. The event also gave owners a platform to share first-hand experience of the crossover.
Key Takeaways: Five Changan CS55 Plus owners and their families took part in an experience-focused handover at Ichkari in Tashkent. Owners highlighted the 360°/540° camera, adaptive cruise control, voice control, panoramic roof, high clearance and soft suspension as practical advantages. No new model launch or official sales figures were announced.
The choice of Ichkari reflects a broader practice among automakers in Uzbekistan of tying product presentations to local culture and everyday life. For Changan, which is strengthening its position in the competitive crossover segment, such events aim to build trust through owner testimony rather than specifications alone. The CS55 Plus is positioned as a family crossover offering comfort, modern assistance systems and SUV-style space at a price close to sedans. In Tashkent, the gathering worked both as customer relations and soft marketing in a market where buyers compare running costs and equipment.
Asked which features first seemed optional and later became essential, Sardor Nigmatov said the 360° camera initially looked like an extra but proved important for parking. Nigina Akhmedova said it helps in tight courtyards and crowded car parks, where everything is visible on screen. Stepan Golovaty praised adaptive cruise control, saying the driver still monitors the road but feels less tired by journey’s end. Mushtariy Madarova emphasized visibility and a sense of control, while Tokhirjon Saliev said voice control lets him manage functions without taking attention off the road.
In a 30-second pitch, Nigmatov called the CS55 Plus a full crossover at close to sedan price, adding modern intelligent systems and fuel economy. Akhmedova singled out the panoramic roof for making the cabin brighter and more spacious. Golovaty would invite a friend into the cabin to feel the soft trim and materials before a test drive. Madarova stressed smooth, comfortable motion and the 540° camera; Saliev highlighted high clearance, soft suspension, reliability and a high seating position.
Thanking the creators, Nigmatov welcomed the restrained classic design, Akhmedova praised comfort, sound insulation and a caring cabin atmosphere, Golovaty pointed to the built-in dashcam with circular recording, Madarova valued seat-memory features, and Saliev applauded the spacious interior. The published material ended with a question about unexpected post-purchase discoveries, but no further answers were included. With no sales targets or product updates announced, the main outcome is owners’ practical feedback: the CS55 Plus is presented less as a showpiece and more as a family crossover whose technology must prove itself in daily Tashkent driving.
