EX I offers the Soul EV experience at lower cost than EX II, but its 212 km range and older tech feel modest for 56 lakh. It suits urban users prioritizing brand reliability and upright design over latest long-range EVs. As a legacy EV in Nepal’s market, it is now better value as a discounted or used purchase than at full ex-showroom price.
