We have officially entered 2025, and electric cars are gaining significant traction in Nepal’s all-round evolving automotive market. The blend of premiumness, performance, and sustainability makes them a compelling choice for buyers seeking an alternative to traditional gasoline-powered Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) cars. With advancements in battery technology, electric sedans now have a better competitive range and features, standing out as good options in a market still dominated by Electric SUVs and compact electric cars such as hatchbacks and minicars.
