Our summary, not a quoteReported by nepaldrives.com

Price, service, resale and roads — here

  • Buyers focus heavily on whether the 210 mm ground clearance and suspension setup can handle Kathmandu’s broken inner roads and rural tracks, and early commentary highlights this as a key strength.
  • Distributors are Kathmandu‑based (showroom in Naxal and service in Manamaiju), so out‑of‑valley buyers worry about access to service and spare parts, especially for major battery or body work.
  • Price positioning around Rs 59.95–64.95 lakh puts it in competition with established brands’ EVs, leading some buyers to question future resale value for a relatively new Chinese nameplate.
  • Local EV portals repeatedly mention the long warranty and existing LS Auto showroom/service locations, which helps reduce anxiety about after‑sales support compared to grey‑import EVs.
  • Ex-showroom Kathmandu price range is NPR 61.95-69.95 lakh depending on variant (SE vs CE) per CarPricesNepal, GadiDrive, NepalEV etc.
  • Battery and motor warranty is 8 years or 150,000 km in Nepal.
  • Ground clearance is 210 mm which is one of its selling points for Nepal’s condition.
  • Buyers estimate real world range closer to ~410-435 km under Nepal’s mixed terrain and climate rather than the 500 km NEDC claim.

What owners rate

  • Looks great with an impressive design
  • Perfect for Nepali roads
  • Strong claimed range around 500 km makes it attractive for long intercity trips in Nepal’s hills and highways.
  • High ground clearance around 210 mm is appreciated as suitable for rough rural roads and city potholes.
  • 8‑year or 150,000 km battery and motor warranty is seen as reassuring for a new Chinese EV brand entering Nepal.
  • Feature set (Level 2 ADAS, 360° camera, large battery, modern design) is considered competitive against other electric SUVs in its price bracket.
  • High ground clearance (210 mm) suited to Nepal’s rough roads
  • 500 km claimed (NEDC) range gives cushion for intercity and city rides after real-world drop

What they complain about

  • Concerns about the manufacturer's credibility
  • Accusations of being a scam
  • High price for a questionable product
  • Lack of transparency in reviews
  • No known company background or history
  • Some buyers feel the top CE variant’s extra cost brings mostly cosmetic upgrades, so value is perceived to be stronger in the base SE variant.
  • Price is viewed as on the higher side compared to smaller, better‑known EVs, which raises concern about long‑term resale value.
