LS Auto LEV 01 costs रु 1,000 less ex-showroom. Kona has 1.4 PS more power.
Best suited to buyers who want the lower-entry Kona EV at Nepal’s official price. It is still expensive for a compact EV, but the range, equipment, and brand support make it the practical choice in the lineup.
Strong feature set, big battery, and long claimed range make the SE excellent value for an entry premium EV buyer. Best suited to urban and intercity users wanting ADAS, panoramic sunroof, and good ground clearance without paying CE trim premium.
