Deepal E07 Launching on January 27 in Nepal: SUV That Transforms into a Pickup Truck

Changan Deepal E07 will launch in Nepal on January 27, 2025.

MAW Vriddhi AutoCorp, the authorized distributor of Changan vehicles in Nepal, is planning to add another EV to its lineup: the Deepal E07, also known as the Nevo E07.

Nevo is a newly launched automotive brand introduced by Changan. Nevo completely focuses on New Energy Vehicles such as Electric and Hybrids. 

The Nevo E07 by Changan’s sub-brand, Nevo, showcases Chinese auto manufacturers’ bold strides in innovation and versatility.

Since Deepal, another sub-brand of Changan Auto, has already established itself in Nepal, the company is bringing the Nevo E07 to Nepal under the name Deepal E07. This approach leverages the familiarity and trust built by Deepal while introducing the innovative design and functionality of the E07 to the Nepali market.

E07 merges the sleek design of an SUV coupe with the practicality of a Pickup Truck through its retractable trunk feature.

This unique design tackles a specific challenge: China’s strict regulations and restrictions on heavy-duty and pickup trucks make them difficult to own and operate in many regions.

However, the demand for pickup functionality remains strong.

Deepal has addressed this need with the E07, providing a vehicle that offers the appeal and utility of a pickup while remaining compliant with local restrictions.

What is the Price of Deepal E07 in Nepal?

Deepal E07 price in Nepal is expected to be Rs. 1,03,99,000.

Internationally, the E07 comes in two versions: the Extended-Range Electric, which features a hybrid setup, and the Battery Electric, which is fully electric.

But Nepal will get the Battery Electric Version of the Deepal E07.

Moreover, it will be officially be launched on January 27, 2025. 

So stay tuned for any updates on the Deepal E07.

Moving further, let’s have a quick look at the specifications of the Deepal E07 in Nepal.

Deepal E07 Overview

Design

The Deepal E07 has earned the nickname “Chinese Cybertruck” due to its design, which draws comparisons to the Tesla Cybertruck.

However, while the Cybertruck boasts a bold, angular, and unconventional look, the E07 maintains the smooth curves and more familiar design elements typical of traditional automobiles.

At the front, the E07 keeps things simple. The low-sitting bumper features air intakes that help cool the battery pack. The slim, “C”-shaped LED headlights lend the vehicle a futuristic feel, while the grille serves little more than an aesthetic purpose for cohesion.

One standout feature of the electric model is its massive frunk, offering plenty of storage space under the bonnet.

From the side, the E07 presents a coupe-like silhouette. It comes equipped with large 19-inch, 3-Spoke Alloy Wheels.

Inside, the first row offers ample space and width, though the second-row space is slightly reduced to accommodate the vehicle’s pickup transformation capabilities. However, this doesn’t significantly impact comfort.

Looking at the rear, the design resembles Deepal’s L07 but with a surprising twist. A push of a button opens the overhead glass, revealing generous boot space.

The tailgate can be lowered via controls from the boot area, transforming the E07 into a pickup truck. Additionally, the boot and second-row seats can be folded, expanding the vehicle’s storage capacity even further.

Changan’s engineers deserve credit for their innovative thinking, as the E07 cleverly blends practicality with style.

Inside, the E07’s cabin breaks away from typical pickup designs. It offers a minimalistic interior, featuring a wealth of soft-touch materials throughout.

The dashboard is dominated by a 15.4-inch Adjustable Central Screen, and there’s also a Passenger Screen positioned above the front passenger seat. Furthermore, there is also Heads Up Display feature.

True to the trend in modern EVs, the E07 has few physical controls.

The steering wheel features two spokes with scroll buttons, and the central console includes a wireless charging pad along with a spacious glove box.

Performance

Deepal E07 EV is powered by a 190 kW Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor. It generates a max power of 258 PS and 365 Nm of max torque.

It is supported by a 90 kWh Ternery Battery that offers a range of 566 Km WLTP claimed range.

Moreover, the E07 runs on an 800 Volts platform so it supports fast charging up to 230kW.

In terms of top speed, it can reach a 180 Km/h mark and can accelerate from 0 to 100 Km/h in 7.1 seconds.

Additional Details

Deepal E07 comes with Air Suspension Setup which can be adjusted to preference.

The dimensions are 5,045 mm length, 1,996 mm width, and 1,640 mm height. Moreover, the wheelbase is 3120 mm.

Furthermore, it has a maximum ground clearance of 207 mm. And the kerb weight is 2325 Kg.

Changan Deepal E07 Price in Nepal and Availability

Changan Deepal E07 price in Nepal is expected to be between Rs. 1,03,99,000.

Furthermore, it is set to be launched on January 27, 2025. 

This EV stands apart from others in Nepal, justifying its premium price with a high-end appeal and a unique “Transformer” feature that converts it into a functional pickup truck.

We will update this article as soon as more information comes to light

The Deepal E07 faces stiff competition from other Chinese brands, such as the Rear-Wheel-Drive variant of the Zeekr X.

The Deepal E07 outshines the Zeekr X with superior performance hardware and a larger battery capacity.

This results in a significantly better driving range, as demonstrated by the E07’s impressive 556 km range in the WLTP test, compared to the Zeekr X’s 440 km.

Both vehicles offer similar features, making it a close match in this category. However, the Deepal E07’s convertible pickup design could appeal to customers who desire the versatility of an SUV combined with the practicality of a pickup truck.

Despite these advantages, Zeekr has already established a strong presence in some of the world’s largest auto markets, while the E07 is still a relatively new player.
