Exhibit 99.1

Cango Inc. Announces Change of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

SHANGHAI, Nov. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Cango Inc. (NYSE: CANG) ("Cango" or the "Company"), a leading automotive transaction service platform in China, today announced the appointment of MaloneBailey, LLP (“MaloneBailey”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024 and on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, effective on November 18, 2024.

MaloneBailey succeeds Ernst & Young Hua Ming LLP (“EY”), which was the independent auditor providing audit services to the Company. The change of the Company’s independent auditor was made after careful consideration and was approved by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors of the Company. The decision to change the auditor of the Company was not as a result of any disagreement between the Company and EY on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures.

EY’s audit reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During each of the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, and during the subsequent period through November 15, 2024, there have been no (i) “disagreements” (as defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(iv) of Form 20-F and the related instructions thereto) between the Company and EY on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of EY, would have caused EY to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement thereto in its reports on the consolidated financial statements for such years, or (ii) “reportable events” as that term is described in accordance with Item 16F(a)(1)(v) of Form 20-F.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and the subsequent period prior to the Company’s engagement of MaloneBailey, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted MaloneBailey with respect to (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that MaloneBailey concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(iv) of the instructions to Form 20-F, or (iii) any reportable event as defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(v) of the instructions to Form 20-F.

The Company is working closely with EY and MaloneBailey to ensure a seamless transition.

The Company would like to express its sincere gratitude to EY for its professionalism and quality of services rendered to the Company over the past few years.
