TheChana Star or Changan Star, more recently theKaicene Star, (Chinese:长安之星) is a series oftrucks andmicrovans built and sold byChangan Automobile under the Chana brand since 1999. The Changan Star series was later repositioned under the Kaicene sub-brand of Changan Automobile.
The Star started off as rebadged tenth generationSuzuki Carry trucks andSuzuki Every vans, with multiple bodystyles spawned byChangan Automobile available. The model was later extended into a product series with several models.
The Chana Star was launched in 1999 based on theSuzuki Every Plus andFord Pronto vans. A few models were available, including a single cab pickup, double cab pickup, standard van, and an extended version van featuring hinged doors instead of sliding doors.
The successor, Chan Star 2, was launched in 2007. However, the Chana Star 2 has not replaced the Chana Star, which, after a subtle facelift restyling, remains on the market positioned just below the Chana Star 2 as of early 2014 with a starting price lowered to 25,000 Yuan.[citation needed]
