What you’re looking at in the image above is the Deepal E07 – a large SUV that doubles as a pick-up truck (or a ute, if you’re in Australia, where the car is set to launch next). The car was being showcased at Everything Electric Sydney, the city’s biggest EV and electrification show, and it was one of the most interesting things on display. So of course, I just had to drive it.
The EO7 originally launched in China in late 2024 and was then made available in Thailand shortly after. When it first debuted, it started at CN¥199,900, which converts to about $27,500 / £22,000 / AU$44,000, but we won’t be surprised if it ends up costing a lot more than this, given its size and performance compared to other cars in these markets.
