CHANGAN Automobile, a leader in New Energy Vehicle (NEV) technology, proudly delivered a DEEPAL S05 BEV MAX to renowned international action star Panom Yeerum, better known worldwide as Tony Jaa, following an impressive test drive experience that convinced him to make the switch to electric mobility.

His decision reflects strong confidence in the DEEPAL brand, particularly in its advanced technology, driving performance, safety, comfort, and ability to complement a refined yet dynamic lifestyle.
Tony Jaa explained that his positive experience during the test drive played a key role in his decision.
"I've always driven conventional gasoline-powered cars, but when I decided it was time to experience an electric vehicle, the DEEPAL S05 immediately became my top choice. After taking it for a test drive, I realized it perfectly matched my lifestyle. It has everything I was looking for—a sporty and strong design, enjoyable driving dynamics, impressive acceleration, and intelligent technologies that make every journey more convenient. After spending more time with the vehicle, I became even more confident that choosing DEEPAL was the right decision."
With a career that requires frequent travel, Tony Jaa believes his ideal vehicle must be versatile enough to handle both everyday commuting and long-distance road trips. The DEEPAL S05 fulfills those expectations by delivering outstanding driving performance, agility, intelligent technology, and premium cabin comfort, making every journey easier, more enjoyable, and more convenient.
Inside, the spacious and contemporary cabin features a large infotainment display, voice control, intelligent connectivity, entertainment and relaxation modes, Camping Mode, Pet Mode, and a wide range of convenience features designed to elevate the driving experience. The vehicle is also equipped with an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) and a comprehensive suite of safety technologies, ensuring confidence and peace of mind on every trip.
For Tony Jaa, the DEEPAL S05 is more than simply his first electric vehicle—it is a trusted companion that supports every aspect of his life, from his demanding career as an international action star to his passion for sports and his everyday lifestyle. His choice reinforces the DEEPAL S05's position as CHANGAN's Hero Product, designed to meet the lifestyle needs of a real-life hero like Tony Jaa.
