Himalayan EV Pvt. Ltd. has launched Nepal’s most affordable electric vehicle (EV) to date — the Ennui Raptor, a compact range extender electric vehicle (EV) priced at just NPR 950,000. This new model is expected to make EVs accessible to a broader segment of Nepali consumers.
Ennui Raptor Nepal EV Launched
Budget Electric Vehicle for All
Speaking at the launch event, Pem Sangbo Sherpa, Executive Director of Himalayan EV, said the goal is to offer a reliable and budget-friendly electric car that every Nepali can afford. The vehicle is imported from Shandong, China, and designed to meet Nepal’s urban and semi-urban mobility needs.
“This EV comes at a price that suits most households,” said Sherpa. “We’ve also included special discounts on vehicle insurance.”
Compact Design Ideal For City Driving
The Ennui Raptor is a compact 4-door, 4-seater electric car, especially targeted at young drivers and urban commuters. Customers buying early will receive cash discount coupons ranging from NPR 10,000 to NPR 100,000 as part of the launch offer.
Dimensions & Build:
Length: 2,900 mm
Width: 1,380 mm
Height: 1,650 mm
Wheelbase: 2,000 mm
Ground Clearance: 165 mm
These specifications make it a perfect fit for narrow roads and rough terrain, ideal for Nepali road conditions.
Performance, Battery, and Range
The Raptor is equipped with a 12.5 kW electric motor, generating 100 Nm torque. It uses a 6 kWh lithium-iron phosphate (LFP) battery pack that delivers a driving range of up to 120 km on a single full charge.
Charging the battery from 0 to 100% takes approximately 5 hours using a standard charging setup. This efficient range makes it suitable for daily commuting needs in cities like Kathmandu, Pokhara, and beyond.
Unique Range Extender Technology (EREV)
The standout feature of the Ennui Raptor is its range extender technology. If the battery charge runs out, a built-in petrol-powered generator charges the battery on the go. This eliminates range anxiety, which is a common concern among EV users in Nepal.
The petrol tank has a capacity of 5 liters, enough to recharge the battery during longer journeys. This makes the Raptor an ideal electric vehicle for inter-city travel as well.
Advanced Features and Modern Interiors
Despite its compact size and affordable pricing, the Raptor is loaded with modern EV features, including:
Air Conditioning (AC)
All-wheel disc brakes
Independent suspension system
Sensor-enabled reverse camera
LCD screen and digital instrument cluster
Rotary gear selector
Two-way brake lock system
The design is further enhanced by an electric ventilation fan on the roof and a spare tire mounted on the rear tailgate, giving it a stylish and practical appearance.
Warranty And Service Support
Himalayan EV is offering a 2-year warranty on the motor and a 3-year or 30,000 km warranty on the battery, whichever comes first. These warranty terms are among the best available in Nepal’s budget EV segment.
The company’s official showroom is located at Uttar Dhoka, Kathmandu, where customers can explore the model and learn more about financing and service options.
A New Chapter In Nepal’s Electric Vehicle Market
With this launch, Himalayan EV Pvt. Ltd. aims to transform the affordability of electric mobility in Nepal. The Ennui Raptor positions itself as the most cost-effective electric car available in the country, offering practical features and advanced technology at a breakthrough price point.
As Nepal accelerates its push toward sustainable transport and energy independence, affordable EVs like the Ennui Raptor will play a vital role in reducing fossil fuel dependency and promoting green transportation.
