Deepal

Deepal's debut model in Australia, the electric S07 SUV, is now reaching dealerships, while service pricing has been announced.

Fledgling Chinese brand Deepal says it’s eyeing off a “fully fledged product lineup” for the Australian market, with the S05 electric SUV likely the next cab off the rank.

The new Deepal S07 mid-sized electric SUV undercuts the top-selling Tesla Model Y and fellow Chinese newcomer, the Xpeng G6, on price.

Australian showrooms will be bursting at the seams with Chinese brands by 2026, with half a dozen marques en route Down Under.

The Australian dealer network for China's Deepal will be limited to two states initially, with an expansion dependent on demand.

Chinese challenger brand Deepal will launch in Australia next month with the S07 SUV, before a possible expansion of the local range.

Deepal is one of several new brands arriving in Australia over the next year, but it has a plan to capture the favour of local buyers.

Deepal is the latest Chinese automaker to hit Australian shores, and its mid-sized S07 electric SUV will go on sale in November.

Inchcape may stop selling Citroens in Australia before 2025, but it's already turning its attention to launching Chinese electric vehicle brand Deepal.
