The electric vehicle (EV) landscape in Nepal continues to evolve at an unprecedented pace, with new brands and models entering the market almost weekly.
Forthing Friday Nepal
In a significant development for the premium segment, Forthing Friday, an emerging EV brand officially distributed by Laxmi E-Mobility Pvt. Ltd., has announced a comprehensive five-year special scheme. Dubbed “Friday to Friday, 2025 – 2030,” this strategic initiative is a clear signal of the company’s commitment not just to sales but to establishing a long-term, customer-centric presence in the Nepali market.
This move is particularly noteworthy for ICTFrame’s audience, which is keenly interested in how technology is changing industries. The “Friday to Friday” plan is more than just a promotional offer; it’s a value proposition designed to tackle some of the key anxieties associated with EV ownership in Nepal.
By providing five years of free Auto Plus Insurance and six years of free servicing, Forthing Friday is directly addressing concerns about long-term maintenance costs and reliability.
The inclusion of a complimentary 7kW charger with every purchase further sweetens the deal, making the transition to an EV more seamless and convenient for new buyers. This kind of holistic approach to customer experience is what differentiates a brand in a competitive market and builds a loyal customer base.
The Forthing Friday EV itself is a product designed to appeal to the tech-savvy and luxury-oriented consumer. The vehicle will be available in two variants: Luxury and Exclusive, priced at NPR 4.896 million and NPR 5.496 million, respectively.
Both variants come equipped with a 64.4 kWh battery pack and a 99 kW motor, promising a claimed range of 400 km on a single charge. This impressive range is a critical feature for Nepali drivers, alleviating “range anxiety” and making the vehicle suitable for both urban commutes and intercity travel across Nepal’s diverse terrain.
The support for both 11 kW onboard AC charging and up to 120 kW DC fast charging is another technological highlight, ensuring quick top-ups and flexible charging options.
The list of premium features is extensive and speaks directly to the brand’s positioning. The vehicle boasts ventilated, heated, massage, and memory seats, features typically found in high-end luxury vehicles.
The interior is a tech haven, with an 8.8-inch LCD instrument cluster and a large 14.6-inch infotainment system, catering to the digital-first consumer. Other modern conveniences like automatic climate control, an electric tailgate, a wireless phone charger, and a panoramic sunroof add to the luxurious experience.
These features, combined with multiple drive modes and a 6-speaker premium music system, create an immersive and comfortable driving environment.
Laxmi E-Mobility Pvt. Ltd., a subsidiary of the well-established Laxmi Group, stands as the official distributor. The Laxmi Group has a long history in Nepal’s automotive sector, having brought prominent brands like Hyundai, BMW, and Kia to the market.
This backing provides a strong foundation of trust and reliability for the new brand. Forthing Friday’s entry is not just about a new car; it’s a strategic expansion by a trusted corporate house into the rapidly growing EV space, demonstrating confidence in the market’s future and the viability of electric mobility in Nepal.
In conclusion, Forthing Friday’s launch with the “Friday to Friday” special scheme is a bold and well-calculated move. It addresses key consumer pain points while offering a product that combines luxury, technology, and sustainability.
As Nepal’s EV market matures, brands are moving beyond just competitive pricing to offer a complete ownership experience. Forthing Friday, with its impressive features and long-term commitment plan, is poised to make a significant mark and accelerate the shift toward a greener, smarter, and more sustainable future for transportation in Nepal.
