Changan Automobile said it has been included in the 2026 Kantar BrandZ Top 50 Chinese Global Brand Builders ranking for the third consecutive year. The latest result continues the company’s run on the list and signals sustained recognition for its brand outside China.
According to the announcement, Changan also moved up in the standings compared with prior years. The company said it earned a Top 10 position within part of the 2026 ranking, underlining what it described as steady progress in its international brand-building efforts.
The Kantar BrandZ list is closely followed as a measure of how Chinese brands are developing visibility and influence in overseas markets. For automakers, placement on the ranking can reflect growing awareness among global consumers as companies expand their presence and sharpen their brand identity abroad.
For Changan, the three-year streak suggests continued momentum in its global branding strategy. While the trimmed release does not include the full methodology or detailed scores, the repeat inclusion and improved placement point to stronger international brand traction in 2026.
