KARACHI: Master Changan Motors Limited (MCML), Pakistan’s leading automotive innovator, made history at the Pakistan Auto Show (PAPS) 2025 by unveiling the nation’s most extensive lineup of New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) under its premium EV brand, Deepal.
The showcase also introduced an inspiring new brand philosophy, “Moving the New Generation,” representing Deepal’s vision for intelligent, sustainable, and emotionally connected mobility for the new generation.
At the heart of this milestone event stood the Deepal S05, Pakistan’s first CKD Range-Extended Electric Vehicle (REEV)—a premium C-segment SUV that combines the freedom of electric driving with extended-range confidence. Co-developed with global titans CATL (the world’s #1 battery manufacturer) and Huawei, the S05 is built on the EPA1 Pure Electric Platform, offering 1,000+ km of combined range and a 100% electric driving experience with full range assurance.
Designed by Klaus Zyciora, former Global Design Chief of Volkswagen Group, it features spacecraft-inspired aesthetics, frameless doors, and a premium intelligent interior. With the longest wheelbase in its segment and 23% more cabin space than other C-segment SUVs, it delivers unmatched comfort, further enhanced by the Zero Gravity co-pilot seat.
The S05 also comes equipped with 20+ L2 ADAS features, including Remote Straight In & Out Parking (RSIO).
Master Changan Motors revealed the Deepal S05 at a disruptive price of PKR 9,999,000, sending shockwaves through the industry. Bookings are now open nationwide, with the company offering a price lock for a limited quantity in February, along with a complimentary 3.3 kWh portable charger at any Changan/Deepal dealership.
The Deepal E07 also entered the lineup as an ultra-luxury E-segment SUV built around a transformative Multi-Truck concept, blending premium aesthetics with true utility. Its dual-motor AWD system (590 HP), lightning-quick 0–100 km/h in 3.9 seconds, Air Suspension, and Zero Gravity seats redefine sophistication in electric mobility. The model debuted in Pakistan at PKR 19,000,000, with bookings starting at PKR 4,000,000.
Master Changan Motors also introduced the Avatr brand, marking the entry of a new ultra-premium electric marque into Pakistan. Co-developed by Changan, Huawei, and CATL, Avatr represents the pinnacle of futuristic design and intelligent performance.
Speaking at the event, Mr. Danial Malik, CEO of Master Changan Motors Limited, said: “At Master Changan, we represent a new mindset—one that reimagines how Pakistan moves. Over the next two years, we will have three brands (Changan, Deepal, and Avatr) and 11 new vehicles. With innovations like the Deepal S05 REEV, Hunter K50 REEV pickup, and the upcoming launch of Avatr 11, we are bridging the gap between conventional and electric mobility, bringing advanced new-energy technology to every segment.”
