Expected in Nepal: at NADA Auto Show · announcement
Nothing about the incoming car’s Nepal price is confirmed yet, so the only firm number on this page is the current car’s. Waiting is a bet on an unannounced price.
The prices and specifications elsewhere on this page are for the current Deepal S05, which remains on sale until the new model arrives.
The Deepal S05 EV positions itself as a premium compact electric SUV for Nepal, combining modern Chinese design, strong real-world range, and fast charging aimed at easing the switch from fuel to electric. With a rear-motor setup, spacious cabin and advanced tech, the top Max variant in particular targets buyers who want a sophisticated, future-ready family EV without stepping into luxury-brand pricing. It sits in the same aspirational bracket as high-spec BYD Atto 3, MG ZS EV and emerging Chinese rivals, but differentiates itself through its mix of range, charging capability and segment-first features tailored to Nepal’s growing EV ecosystem.
Editorial overview compiled from official specs and Nepali/Indian auto sources · as of 31 Jul 2026.
The Deepal S05 sold in Nepal has the proportions of a modern compact-to-mid-size electric SUV, measuring about 4.6 metres long and 1.9 metres wide with a relatively long wheelbase that gives it a planted, upscale stance on the road. The Max variant comes with stylish 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels and a clean, EV-specific front fascia with a closed grille and sharp LED lighting signatures that help it stand out from more conventional SUVs in Kathmandu’s traffic. The side profile is smooth and aerodynamic, with flush or near-flush design elements and a gently sloping roofline that gives the S05 a more premium, crossover-like character than boxy utility vehicles common on Nepali roads. At the rear, the full-width lighting treatment and tidy bumper design further underline its positioning as a sophisticated urban-family EV rather than a barebones commuter, which will appeal to buyers moving up from smaller hatchbacks and compact crossovers.
For Nepal, credible local listings describe the Deepal S05 as a rear-wheel-drive EV using a permanent magnet synchronous motor paired with a roughly 56 kWh CATL LFP battery pack, tuned to about 99 kW of power and 320 Nm of torque. This specification, combined with its battery capacity, delivers a WLTP-rated range of around 405 km and up to about 470 km under more optimistic NEDC testing, which translates into confident real-world usability for mixed city and highway driving between major Nepali towns. The rear-motor layout and independent suspension (McPherson front, five-link rear) are configured to balance comfort and stability, so buyers can realistically expect strong traction and predictable handling on paved urban roads and smoother highways, while still coping with typical undulations and patchy surfaces. Fast DC charging of around 30–80% in about 15 minutes and home-friendly AC charging near 7 kW mean the S05 Max, in particular, is well suited to Nepal’s evolving charging network where owners often combine home charging with occasional rapid top-ups on longer runs.
