Deepal S07 vs MG S6 EV: two Rs 72–75 lakh SUVs compared

Pick the MG S6 EV (Rs 71.99 lakh) if you want the bigger battery, more power, a bigger boot and MG's wider workshop network for Rs 3 lakh less. Pick the Deepal S07 (Rs 74.99 lakh) if the longest battery warranty and its listed equipment matter more to you (indicative ex-showroom prices on the official sites, checked October 2026).

Both are mid-size, five-seat, rear-wheel-drive electric SUVs. The Deepal S07 is sold by MAW Vriddhi, which also sells Changan; the MG S6 EV by Paramount Motors. MG launched the S6 in Nepal in May 2026 at Rs 69.99 lakh, ShareSansar reported; its official page now shows Rs 71.99 lakh. The S07 is the model that built Deepal's name here: MAW Vriddhi said in August 2025 that over 950 Deepal EVs had reached Nepali roads in 18 months.

We have not driven either car. This comparison uses the official Nepal pages only, and we do not declare a winner on things we cannot measure.

Price and variants

Each car is sold in one version in Nepal, so the comparison is simple.

The gap is Rs 3 lakh in the MG's favour. MG calls its figure an introductory price, so ask how long it holds. If you need more range from Deepal, the S07 L (79.97 kWh) costs Rs 84.99 lakh, Rs 13 lakh more than the MG. Our Deepal S07 guide covers both Deepal versions.

Range, battery and charging

Deepal S07 (NEDC)485 km

MG S6 EV (WLTP)530 km

Claimed range (km): note the different test cycles

The two range figures are not measured the same way. Deepal quotes 485 km on the older NEDC cycle; MG quotes 530 km on WLTP. WLTP is the newer and generally more demanding test, so the real gap is likely wider than the 45 km on paper. Our range test cycles explainer shows why the cycles differ. Treat both as lab figures, not what you should expect every day. Still, the MG has both the bigger battery and the stricter test behind its number.

The S07's 99 kW is low for a car of this size; Deepal's page notes that export models may differ. Your annual tax band follows the power recorded in the bluebook, so check that figure on the documents. The two DC times start from different charge levels (30% against 10%), so they are not directly comparable either. A car can only charge as fast as the station allows, so check the power of the chargers you will actually use; our EV charging guide explains the options.

Space, features and safety we can confirm

The S07 is slightly longer with a longer wheelbase; the MG is taller and sits 20 mm higher, which helps on broken roads and steep driveways. The MG's 674-litre boot is a published, checkable figure; Deepal gives none. Both list a broad set of driver aids. Deepal additionally lists a 360° camera and an AR head-up display, which MG's page does not mention. "Not listed" does not prove a car lacks a feature, so ask for the full equipment sheet.

Running cost and EMI

Both cars are large SUVs with similar efficiency on paper (about 14 kWh per 100 km from each brand's figures, on different cycles). For a fair comparison we assume the same real-world 20 kWh per 100 km for both. That is our assumption, not a claim.

Electricity is Rs 11.55 per unit: the NEA's Rs 11 top domestic rate plus the 5% VAT reported by The Kathmandu Post from July 2026.

Annual tax: the S07's 99 kW motor sits in the 51–125 kW band, which Ratopati lists at Rs 15,000 a year in Bagmati for FY 2083/84. The MG's 180 kW motor falls in a higher band; we could not confirm that rate from an allowed source, so ask your transport office.

Warranty and service network

On paper, Deepal's battery and motor cover is much longer. The extension has conditions: it is sold only with a Shikhar Insurance comprehensive policy, both must stay active, and servicing must be at authorised centres. MG's one-year whole-vehicle warranty is short, so ask what an extended package would cost.

On the network, MG is ahead on published data. Its official pages list showrooms and service points in 15 towns from Birtamode to Dhangadhi. MAW Vriddhi publishes no Deepal dealer list; the showrooms we know of come from news reports, and only two service sites are confirmed. If you live outside the Kathmandu Valley, phone the nearest workshop before you buy. See the MG and Deepal dealer lists.

Which one should you buy?

• If you want the most battery, power and boot for the money, choose the MG S6 EV: 77 kWh, 180 kW and 674 litres for Rs 3 lakh less.
• If a long battery warranty is your top priority, choose the Deepal S07: 8 years / 2,40,000 km as standard, and up to 11 years with the insurance-linked extension.
• If you live outside the Kathmandu Valley, the MG's published network of 14 service points is the safer bet today, unless a Deepal workshop is near you.
• If you want features such as a 360° camera and AR head-up display, the Deepal lists them; check whether the MG has equivalents.
