It came as a historic event that changes the face of the Nepali automobile sector when MAW Vriddhi Autocorp, the authorized distributor of Changan automobiles and Deepal EVs in Nepal, introduced the Deepal E07-a radical electric SUV, which has also been configured into a pickup truck. Priced starting at Rs 99.99 lakh, this highly versatile car aspires to reshape Nepal's automobile outlook, flaunting innovative design, advanced technology, and ecologically friendly performance.

A World-First Innovation

The Deepal E07 is the world's first mass-produced electric SUV with an electric retractable trunk cover, which enables it to switch seamlessly between SUV and pickup modes. Grounded in Changan's intelligent SDA Super DNA platform, the E07 integrates a full-alloy chassis with a unique dual-mode system. Sleek profile of an extended coupe in SUV mode and a rugged utility in pickup mode, this beast will serve the purpose for urban as well as off-road adventure.

Two Variants to Choose From

Deepal E07 will come with two variants:

• RWD (Rear-Wheel Drive): Priced at Rs 99.99 lakh, this variant will be good for everyday driving and light utility.
• AWD (All-Wheel Drive): Priced at Rs 1.99 crore, this will attract consumers seeking higher performance and capability, especially in not-so-good weather/terrain conditions.

Impressive Performance and Range

The Deepal E07 comes fitted with a 190 kW rear-wheel drive system that churns out 258 PS of power and a peak torque of 365 Nm. Perfect for in-State drives across Nepal's diverse landscapes, it has a WLTP-certified range of 566 kilometers on a single charge. It will run easily on bad roads and through flooded conditions during the monsoon, thanks to its 600mm water-wading capacity.

Spacious and Feature-Packed

The Deepal E07, at 5045 mm in length, 1996 mm in width, and 1640 mm in height on a wheelbase of 3120 mm, promises reasonable space and comfort. Though this huge-sized electric car has only two rows of seating, air suspension is installed in the vehicle, supported by a continuous damping system to give a fine and comfortable drive.

The interior is bedecked with top-of-the-line features, which include:

• 28.86-inch Augmented Reality HUD for an immersive driving experience.
• 3D model car control interface for intuitive management of the vehicle.
• Zero-gravity seating for ultimate comfort over long istances.
• 18-speaker sound system for high-quality music and sound delivery.
• Auto parking for smooth, easy parking in congested areas.

Safety First

Safety is of prime importance in the Deepal E07, which uses Changan's self-developed intelligent driving assistance system. This system hosts:

• 11 cameras
• Five millimetre-wave radars
• 12 ultrasonic sensors
• Two lidars

These features work in harmony to provide advanced driver-assist capabilities, ensuring a safe and secure driving experience.

A Perfect Fit for Nepal

The launch of Deepal E07 is indeed the next logical step in Nepal's march towards its growing electric vehicle market. The dual-mode functionality fits right for both urban commuters and rural adventurers alike, while the ecological design of the e-bike aligns well with the eco-friendly impetus that Nepal is trying to give toward sustainable transportation

The Future of Mobility in Nepal
