Dongfeng’s Nammi Box has arrived in Nepal as a compact, city-friendly electric hatchback built for crowded roads and rising fuel costs. The better-equipped E3 sits at the top of the range. It brings usable real-world range, modern tech and a grown-up cabin.
Editorial overview compiled from official specs and Nepali/Indian auto sources · as of 29 Jul 2026.
The Nammi Box sold in Nepal is a boxy hatchback with clean surfacing, short overhangs and a slightly raised stance. It is made to use space well without looking bare. In top E3 trim, it gets larger alloy wheels and wider tyres than the base variant, which gives it a more planted look and a slightly more premium feel for buyers moving up from small petrol hatchbacks. Its compact footprint of roughly four metres by 1.81 metres, along with a 1.57-metre height, makes it easy to move through tight city lanes and park in crowded areas. It still reads as a modern family car rather than a micro-EV.
All Nepal-spec Nammi Box variants use a front-mounted permanent-magnet synchronous motor and lithium-iron-phosphate battery. The distributor lists the E2 with a 70 kW motor and the 31.4 kWh pack, and the E3 with a 49.5 kW motor and the larger 42.3 kWh pack, so the E3 is the longer-range choice rather than the quicker one. Manufacturer figures put top speed at about 140 km/h and WLTP range at around 317 km on the E3, so buyers can expect enough pace for city and highway use, along with Kathmandu–Pokhara or East-West Highway runs with planned charging stops. The CLTC range claim of up to 430 km on the larger battery is more optimistic laboratory data, but in Nepal’s mixed traffic and terrain it still gives a useful buffer for daily commuting. Front-wheel drive, MacPherson front suspension and a torsion-beam rear are conventional hatchback hardware. The setup points to predictable handling and a focus on stability and comfort rather than sporty dynamics, which suits its role as an everyday family EV.

“Many owners like the generous tech pack including a large touchscreen, digital instrument display, ADAS safety suite, and heated/ventilated seating in top trims, feeling that it punches above its price point.”
“Some owners mention that real-world range when using AC heavily or driving in hilly areas can drop noticeably below claimed WLTP figures.”
“A few also note that after-sales network is still growing outside main urban centres, so parts/service turnaround can vary.”
