Born from the prestigious **Changan Automobile**, one of China’s “Big Four” state-owned car manufacturers, **Deepal** is making waves on the global stage.

Now present in countries like **Thailand, Australia, Mexico, Nepal,** and **Pakistan**, Singapore is the latest destination for this ambitious brand.
What Can You Expect from Deepal in Singapore?

This futuristic vehicle is tagged at **$220,999**, including the Certificate of Entitlement (COE). Positioned competitively against other newcomers in the electric SUV market, such as the **Hyptec HT Premium**, the **BYD Sealion 7**, and the **Xpeng G6**, the S07 combines aesthetics with functionality.
Featuring a sleek coupe-SUV silhouette with an extensive **2,900mm wheelbase**, the S07 promises ample interior space. **The highlight** of its cabin is the innovative **15.6-inch infotainment touchscreen**, designed to tilt towards either the driver or passenger—effectively putting technology within easy reach.
