Changan seeks top 10 global sales status in coming 5 years

"That means they accept our quality standards," said Li.

Technology such as autonomous driving is expected to become the company's competitive edge.

Li said autonomous driving is an inevitable trend of the auto industry as it will improve customers' driving experience.

"Statistics show 90 percent of traffic accidents are the result of human errors, while autonomous driving can avoid such errors," said Li.

Changan cars have already shown their ability to self-park and race at high speeds without a driver in test conditions and Li said they would be fully automatic by 2025.

That is roughly the timeframe major European auto giants have set for their autonomous vehicles to hit public roads.

Yang Dayong, Changan's director of public relations, said the automaker's technological edges are based on its long-term focus on quality systems.

"We started making passenger vehicles more than a decade ago but we had little influence in the industry until our Eado hit the market in late 2012.

"It was the first result of our decade-long effort in building our quality systems. Since then, Changan has been offering a constellation of star products," said Yang, showing a picture on his smartphone of a Changan Raeton next to the airplane that took recently Premier Li Keqiang to Chile.
