When I first laid eyes on the Deepal S07 at the Sydney International EV AutoShow, I could sense it was going to make waves in Australia’s EV market.
With sleek lines, impressive features, and a price designed to disrupt, this mid-sized electric SUV has everyone talking.
Deepal S07: A Competitive Price Tag
Starting at $53,900 plus on-road costs, the Deepal S07 positions itself as a more affordable alternative to competitors like the Tesla Model Y ($55,900) and Polestar 2 ($62,400).
Deepal S07 Price: $53,900
Early buyers have a sweet deal too—deliveries before January 31, 2025, include a year of free public charging with Evie.
Features Packed for Value
Deepal hasn’t skimped on the S07’s standard features. From 19-inch alloy wheels (with optional 20-inch rims) to a panoramic glass roof, this SUV balances luxury with practicality.
The 15.6-inch rotating touchscreen, synthetic leather upholstery, and a 14-speaker Sony sound system add to its high-end feel.
Wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a power tailgate further enhance convenience.
On the safety front, the S07 impresses with adaptive cruise control, seven airbags, lane-keeping assistance, and a 360-degree camera with a simulated 3D view.
It’s clear Deepal has Australian families in mind.
Performance and Range
Powered by a 79.97kWh battery, the Deepal S07 offers a WLTP range of 475km. Its single rear motor delivers 160kW of power and 320Nm of torque, taking it from 0-100km/h in 7.9 seconds.
Charging is a breeze, with DC fast charging capable of hitting 30-80% in just 35 minutes.
Warranty and Support
The S07 comes with a seven-year/160,000km vehicle warranty and an eight-year/240,000km battery warranty.
With showrooms opening in Sydney and Melbourne, Deepal is making it easy for Aussies to experience this electric SUV firsthand.
Will the Deepal S07 Redefine the Segment?
From its competitive price to its luxurious features, the Deepal S07 feels like a game-changer.
As I explored it at the auto show, I couldn’t help but think this could be a serious rival to the Tesla Model Y.
With order books open and deliveries starting in December, the S07 is here to shake things up.
