# Changan launches the Alsvin Plus 2026 in Panama with more space and tech

## What Happened

Changan Panamá introduced the new Alsvin Plus 2026 at Autódromo Panamá, positioning the sedan as a compact-car option with a stronger emphasis on interior space, technology and value.

The model is built to stand out in its segment with a length of 4,730 mm and a wheelbase of 2,685 mm, dimensions that give it a roomier cabin than many rivals in the same class. The launch underscores how automakers in Panama continue to compete on features as well as price.

## Engine and Performance

Both versions of the Alsvin Plus 2026 come with a 1.5-liter engine producing 103 horsepower. The powertrain is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, a setup aimed at balancing fuel efficiency with smoother, more responsive driving.

That combination places the model in line with buyers looking for an everyday sedan that offers convenience and a modern transmission without moving into a higher price range.

## Technology and Interior Features

Inside, the Alsvin Plus 2026 centers its offer on connectivity and digital displays. It includes a 10-inch touchscreen, while the Luxury version adds a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster for a more advanced cockpit feel.

Those features are increasingly important in Panama’s automotive market, where drivers often compare infotainment, comfort and design alongside engine size and safety equipment when choosing a new vehicle.

## Safety and Market Position

Safety equipment includes electronic stability control, ABS brakes with electronic brake-force distribution and up to four airbags in the higher-end trim. Those systems help strengthen the sedan’s appeal in a segment where buyers are paying closer attention to protection features.

The Alsvin Plus 2026 is already on sale in Panama with prices starting at B/. 14,988 for the Confort version and B/. 16,488 for the Luxury trim. Changan Panamá is also offering a five-year or 100,000-kilometer warranty, adding another selling point for customers weighing long-term ownership costs.

## Why It Matters

The arrival of the Alsvin Plus 2026 adds another contender to Panama’s competitive sedan market. With a larger body, a modern automatic transmission, updated cabin technology and a warranty package, the model is aimed at buyers looking for a practical family car with a more upscale presentation.
