EHS4 has 150 km more claimed range.EHS4 has 13 PS more power.

At Rs 57.99 lakh, it looks competitive if you want a premium RWD EV with decent range and fast charging. It suits buyers prioritizing badge, comfort, and exclusivity over maximum equipment transparency or brand depth. The regular Rs 59.99 lakh price is harder to justify versus better-known rivals unless Hongqi’s design and showroom experience matter a lot.

Comfortable ride and refined, quiet cabin for city commuting.
Usable 200+ km real-world range fits typical urban Nepali usage.
Nissan brand backing and established ICE service network in Nepal.
